Nice job bro. As for me, I'm holding on for now. I'll see you down at 900.

AGAIN, I did not hold long enough.
I considered selling only 1 and holding the other through the night or even setting a buy limit at 910 for the second, but I was ready for bed and not ready to give up the profit I stayed up late to get.
 
---Option prices are a result of ES prices. ----ES prices are not a result of option prices---. When the ES price closes close to where someone using options for prediction thinks it will, it constitutes a false confirmation of their belief. --Das ist ja ein zufall-- Good trading to all-- Ishmael:)
 
Long 906.00

Out 906.50 - I'm too short biased and anxious over long trades, but I figure I need to trade some that way for experience.


OOHHHH! - I forgot to cancel the buy limit last night I had set earlier in the evening at 912.25 - GREAT........

Ok - think whatever you want because it's obvious no one can tell you any fact that would actually make you see that your statement is incorrect...
 
Quote from Decel:

In my non-experienced sheep view, I expect it to either test the lower part of that channel @ 930 or make a 10+ pt down gap and drop.

Worst case (for me) would be to have it hang around at these levels...

Oh, and I'm off work this week, so it will be interesting to see if this sheep will have the guts to trade and post his positions live :p

Out both 914.25

Broke $15K ($15,080) - highest account value to date!

Just finished watching "Bigger, Stronger, Faster" on Netflix waiting for trade to finish - good documentary.

Want some advice ?


Bank your profits now and drawdown the account back to the original starting point. This will do 2 things.

Keep you from giving back what you made.

Make you trade more defensively instead of getting overconfident with the profit.
