5 min revearsal bar and serious test of 1 min trend line on ym. Long 2 at 13284 wtih stop below lows. More aggressive trade here.

Out of 2 fat 13297, holding one for lower lows with stop above 1 min trendline. Double bottom here and break of 1 min trendline signal long only till further retracement met.

nice observation...looking at the same zone 66/68 but i do not expect a closing of that gap but bullish overtones till the fomc in walk up fashion as per usual....my 2 cents fwiw..

Quote from jagmot:

Ok stopped out (paid for comm at least) and reentered trade at 1472.25. Same parameters as before.

Edit: BE now 1472.50
Edit2: stopped out +1 tick
Edit3: back in at 1472 (sometimes I can be too persistant!)

I have exited this position at 1478 for 6 points and reversed my position at 1478.25. Stop at 1480.50, target lod.

Edit1: (1:31pmEST) taking a profit here at 1474 and letting one contract ride with trailing stop.
