I may not post a lot today --I'm busy watching some Aussie shorts that I have been building up overnight. I'll try to post when I exit the ES. The Aussie short looks like it may have legs here.

I have to agree. Aussie market would be a good long term short play.
 
Quote from Buy1Sell2:

sosa you must have shorted 3 contracts? Way to go! What was the reason you held--Daily trend?

S2, I didnt take any heat. Not even 1/4 point. Yes 3 contracts @ 1299.50. Holding now because of the daily trend and 60 minute charts indicating roll over. Waiting for them to test 200 day moving average before its confirmation for me. I'm not going to make any predictions though, as anyone's guess is as good as mine.
 
To those who are using Slow stochastics, I read an article recently aboutusing multiple time frames on slow Stoch on the same chart for stronger signals. It uses 10, 15, 20, and 25 time period Slow Stoch on the same chart.

When all 4 Stochs are below the oversold line and start turning up, you get a nice long entry. Of course this is not to be used as a sole indicator but in conjunction with your other signals, could provide some good high prob entries/exits.

Here is a sample quickly of how it could look in TradeStation:

Looks oversold on daily charts. Went long at 1287 to hold through the rest of the week. Today's news just popped the bubble of the dreamers who thought the Fed was going to stop raising rates in an economy growing nicely and high commodities prices lol. Therefore, traders are most likely pushing us down to an extreme today and we could have ES back above 1290 soon. If not I have a tight stop and will get out of the way if I am wrong :D
 
Quote from sosa1974:

My basis for watching Europe was to see if they could pentrate thru the 50 day. They couldn't, not even close in my judgment. I waited all nite for Europe to show me some strength. This was my entry point @ 1299.50, never took a tick of heat which kept me in the trade and allowed me to hold. I use tradestation for all Futures trades but I trade stocks prop.


Thanks Sosa. I trade from Australia. So I'm up till 6am before the market closes. The Japanese Futures will give some good opportunities.
