PPT hard at work.

same thing happened at the lows last night in the nq would the ppt attach itself to the nq as well?went from 1720-1715 cleared out all bids and stops. the clearing of the stops is the reason why i have fears of using stops, i then get slauttered for not using and the cycle continues. the frickin placement of the stops is killing me!

The drift back up to PP is pretty normal after a sell off.

well now, should you not have closed out the trade immediately after having realized it was a mistake?? Whats the sense of keeping a trade on that violated your rules?

Once in a trade, one should always follow their rules for managing a trade. That is what I am doing--staying with my stop and making fewer decisions.--Ishmael

B1S2,

You posted a short sometime ago, I remember the stop was not taken out yesterday. Your position still on?

Flipping Long @ 612.4 (/TF)

Oil is dying a horrible death, and I think it'll soon take equities with it.

B1S1, do you have a preplanned target or just waiting for conditions to turn? I sold 1063.75 this morning (2pt stop now moved to 1063.25). Initial target was 1058 but with that selloff I moved target to 1056.50 (no fill). I'm debating leaving it there or trailing in hopes of S2. Or if I see a 5m long grail I'll cut it.
