Thought I would throw in my 2 cents (new to the board). Enjoy reading all the posts (ie apex, lance, packer, romik, jj, and all other regulars).

I was short from 1454 and got out yesterday at 1449. Ultimately I think we get down to 1431 area in the next couple weeks before heading higher. Looking for the next bounce (come on earnings season give me something here) to get short - hopefully around 1450.

Todays lower target looks to be 1439 - 1441. I'll not be buying as I'll just wait until the bounce hits and take my chances then.

Good trades.

Ya not a bad call by Oscar but hes just piggy backing me. I had the trade 2 days earlier with a 1/4th the risk and also gave the low of the day for today 2 days in advance....

This is how it played out..

Getting short ES at 1451.75-1452 if it can get one more pop up there.. with a 1.5 stop going for minimum of 4 pts+

EDIT: getting in a tick early here at 1451.50

If you are going for minimum of 4 pts+, why not just take first off at the 4pts and not the 3pts? Do you follow B1S2 advice of not scaling out?
