mbusch: way to go. After the ES has been going sideways all morning, what made you pull the trigger? Thanks

Trigger pulled itself. I entered a limit buy order at 1410.25 at the open, and it got filled at 10:09 ET. Retested that level twice more at 10:20 and 10:35, then took off for the upside. Purely a gap-fill play.

We've now retrace about 50% of that 10-point upmove. I'm waiting for a retest to go short, because I think we may go higher before the trend changes to down. I considered shorting the gap-fill for a scalp but didn't.

EDIT: Long here at 1415.50 (missed my desired entry at 1414.75). Looking for retest of 1421 and possibly higher.

Hehehe, great minds, etc. :)

EDIT: I do think you meant 1414.50, not 1514.50. You always get better entries that I do.
