Sax,

Sounds great.

Welcome to Level 2 :)

Quote from saxon22:

Since everybody is sharing their numbers, I will do the same. $544, but it was done only with 1 contract and 3 Round Trips. After much deliberation and a couple of nightmarish nights in front of ES AH, I have decided to be more conservative with my capital. After being down $10,000 twice in the last 10 days and being lucky to get out of those crazy positions, I scaled down my positions and changed my entry/exit strategy. Today was the first day of my modified plan and it worked OK. Not a super big gain, but I'd rather make this than look in my wife's eyes and tell her that I just blew 10 grand.

I will be more carefully and hopefully calmer in the days to come.


Happy Trading to all.

:D :D :D

$544 for one contract is almost 11 points. That is extraordinary for a beginner, and, arguably, for anyone. Good for you.

If you can do half that, or even a quarter of that, on average, day after day, you will be among the elite.

Well... it was 3 round trips each time using 1 contract.

This thing exploded to the upside in relatively small amount of time.

Testing the 1480s in AH

getting ready for T day


I took 74.5 to 80.25 and am now short at 80.25 looking for 78
 
I got short 3 at 1478 looking for 1475. Seems like the AH market is a little bit easier to make $$$$ thanx to those spikes on super low volume. I have another 1 contract short position waiting at 1480.50.


BTW is there any kind of news that pushed the ES so far up so fast or is this normal occurrence for AH?
