Ill stop now.

Why don't you just simplify it for us and post the summary of his thoughts without the analysis? Like: Simon says UP....

P.S.: I like simple things...The last post quoted had no prediction value...
 
Will someone kind & merciful please SHOOT ME?

Sunday night I offered ES near resistance. Initially I entered my sells at 786.25.

Before going to bed I changed my orders to 786.50, using about a three point stop.

Yesterday's high, of course, was 786.50 & my orders didn't fill.

Won't someone please, please just shoot me? The pain is too much!!!!!!!

Thanks, in advance.

--H:eek:
 
GCSI,

I feel your pain man :)

I actually got short that night at 786 with a stop at 788 but got out because I "didn't like the action" LOL

Which one of us is the bigger douche? :p

Neither, as long as you always do 3 things IN THIS ORDER












DEFINE YOUR RISK


PLAN YOUR TRADE


TRADE YOUR PLAN

Didn't mean to upset you. Ill stop now.

like buy1 this gentleman is short so he is trading well. maybe just post a link to his thread. That said, this issue has come up before. I find it difficult to follow anyone who is not swing trading like buy1. The issue for you is to trade profitably which you seem to be doing (again by being short with the trend). What I am saying is that it is hard to trade along someone else unless you really understand all the whys and wherefores of their system. Good trading!:)
 
Thanks Volente,

I definitely always do the first two....I'm a bit paranoid about risk. But, after a shitty run of trading, I find my brain messes with me and I don't trade the plan everytime. Since my approach is small stops and big profit targets, the hardest part about it is the beating myself up after missing one of these signals.

The learning never ends with trading!

Good trading.
