well..Im hoping we get a good drop into the close. I haven't got any money on it though.

I developed a system and have been testing it without money for 2 months. I took it live 12 days ago and have made nearly 400 pips. I dont wanna push my luckand am taking all my money out of my account tonight.

For it to be an amazing week we need to get down to 1476.0! not looking good i must say, lol. (currently 1485.5)

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yeah, that last little blurt over 1490 at the same exact same time forced me out of my short position as well --luckily i reshorted the NQ at the same time once I saw the two minute bar doji instead of break through the 1490 level. I would have been pretty upset going home with a small loss.

Quote from mbusch:

Stopped out of the remaining 1/2 of my short at 1490.25 (dammit), for +1.75 on that half. Now flat.

Given the impressive support at 1487.75 earlier, I assumed it would be impressive resistance once we broke through it, so lowered my stop to 1490.25. Seemed like the right thing to do at the time.

Hell, maybe it was...she's still trying to go up here at 1490.25.

Guess any profit beats a loss, but I'm disappointed. Looking to take another bite of the apple.

what a frustrating sell that was.......had that feeling that it would be one of those that would not provide a clear entry....just had to be positioned with a loose stop.

another 3:30 big move for the books.

edit: fwiw,i did not catch that move & don`t want to give the impression that i did.
 
Quote from mbusch:

Holding AH, or did you unwind at the close?

im still short but am willing to take a loss on this if it continues higher... I was looking for at least a small retrace to lighten up but havent got one.... what a fucking move into the close... I hate playing AH.. made up most of the drawdown from yesterday but this trade could sting a bit.
