Asking 1280 to close the 3 adds from 1277, and keeping the other 2 on.

Based on BE for the entire position, I lost -3.98 on the last 3 adds. BE still at 1283.98 on the other 2.

Asking 1290 on the final two.

Looking back I see that. When I made the entry it was too early. Also, the longer term charts did not jive with the indicators on the shorter term charts. Now the longer term look better and the shorter term doesn't look as appealing. Either way I am unfortunately back in.

At this point I have limited my trades for today to this last one. If this fails I am out for the day.

Out at 81.25

Thats a loss of just over 2pts total for the day. Could have been worse I could have stopped trading after those first two bad entries.
 
Quote from Laissez Faire:

Looks like it. Trailed to 1309 now, but that`s my limit. Expecting it to get hit for sure.

I generally do not trade outside of RTH, but it looked like a good short at the time:)

I generally do not have an issue with getting stopped out, but it is extremely annoying when the market only trades 3 ticks against me before reversing. If it traded 10 handles against me, it would be a lot easier to handle :)

Sick volatility today for sure. Just now opened my charts. Still on "vacation" :)
