adding long 1422.75.

Question for you B1S2.

With such excellent long-term trading (which is where the real money is made ... if you can do it).

Why even bother with the intra-day play?

Just having a good time with it. Positions are much smaller than the longer term trades due to that fact.

don't play games with me. either trade real money or play with paper trades. trade what u see, not what u think.....no one know s for sure what the next bar brings.......but some get real close with excellent probability. lead paws happen to professionals as well........u will not find the gold on forums.......u will find it when u do the work, if you mindset is correct........when your ego is eliminated as much as possible, and when you have confidence in what your eyes are seeing, not what you are thinking. what u r thinking is discretionary.......discretionary loses.....until you are mr marcus and u ain't going to be mr marcus.......

JJ.....think about this........nq...es....er....ym....there are average pts per run intraday...........do the studies...... X contracts.......position is where other big money is not THE BIG MONEY.....CAPTURE A FEW POINTS OF EACH RUN X BIG CONTRACTS......BIG CONTRACTS IS WHERE THE BIG MONEY IS NOT BIG POINTS......i don't like giving this simple stuff...i prefer u work for it.......

The double bottom at 1416.50 1416.75 is supplying nice support so far to my longs. Staying long here.

I tend to agree with what you say. If you are looking at the martket all day long that is.
