stop raised to 30
target moved to 39

set and forgot. gotta take off for a bit.

Good thing I moved the stop up. Really want to go long here again at 25 if it comes.
 
king, thanks for posting that PTJ video, that was great! i love how pumped he gets about his Bruce Willis shoes.

hope everyone had a good day today.
 
LC, to me it looks like:

USD ready for a bounce
Oil down to 60 (maybe lower)
Gold down to about 970
SPX consolidate around 1000 for another leg up
VIX to about 40 or a bit< (based on weekly)
 
You know this thread is completly ridicoulous! Not only is there very little to learn here any more ,there is such a level of animosity over every frickin move its irritating as hell! I understand the perma bull crap is annoying for 5 months but they ,lexi, never frickin once posted a why to anything and other than pekola and his dragon and lawrence c there isnt a lesson to be had since July!So who cares if it is real trades with real stops i thought this was a journal to learn how to trade the ES. cut the BS and if you don't have anything to teach cut down on the posts! Roger that... knock it off! I suck at this and I need some help!
edit:oops with my apologies to the previous post!

learn how to trade? from who - what? random entry posts with no reason why, big loss calls buried and paltry profits paraded. learn something? like what? just one big joke.

ok. time for me to go from et. been here in one form or fashion since the early years. you have no idea how good this place was then, how bad it is now. not a vendor, no further reason to be here. let the trolls, vendor bashers, poser posters and hopeless pretenders have this asylum. reverse darwinism in progress

ok this might be a paper trade per Romik...but it could possibly happen again once more so there's value to posting.

small long @ 25.75 and 24.50 (4 total). Used limit orders with auto stop at 1.5 pts (so it went to 24.25 then 23.5 on second fill).

just took 1/2 off at 26.25. +0.5x2
leaving stop @ 23.5
target 1 = 29.5 +5
target 2 = 35.5 +11

logic? triple rsi div on 30min, dragon, R3. I don't trade AH but figure its worth a shot here in case we gap up.

"as a matter of fact" you were short from 58 according to this journal, not from 58.75. And no mention of a stop.

Alright, I've had enough of this silly crap and all the whinos that constantly trash this place with their filth.

If you know what the hell you're doing, you don't need others to hold your hands every step of the way. Just by telling me where one got in and got out is enough to figure out what he or she was thinking. I guess that's what differentiates between a noob and a seasoned pro. In case you missed it, that wasn't meant as a compliment.

Here's an interesting article from FuturesMag.

Learning to trade: It's academic

The article was orginally written for analysis of the different currency pairs, with the main idea being to take trades in whatever currency pair is delivering a setup according to the rules of the system.

But if you apply the concept to a portfolio of futures (ES, ZN and EU for example) you will find that it works just as well.

Enclosed is a chart of how the system works looking at a 240 minute chart of the the ES.

Good trading

Since that time you've been short a few times at other levels (not just in this journal). That post doesn't reveil whether it is a scalp or a swing trade, neither does it reveil what the stop was, neither did you bother with updating whether you were still holding that position on the contrary you posted other posts where you were going short as if there was no previous short at 58.75. All this confusion will vanish when you start posting entry & stop in real-time. These are the rules set out by B1S2 who is the owner of this thread.
