Quote from dbphoenix:

If you waited for the market to open, you got a 21pt move. If you bought the bounce off gap support pre-market, you got a few more.

You are assuming that you could have bought the bottom and sold at the top to make that range.

Did you make 21pts in a single entry today in NQ?

What I normally do is trade a 2 lot and take profit on the one while letting the other ride with a trailing stop.
Other times I will just exit full position and wait for another entry point. There is NOTHING WRONG with taking quick profits.
I'm not ashamed of that nor do I apoligize for doing so.
BTW, yesterday was a 30pt day for me in the NQ

Thank You

How is that relevant to my original question?

I assume the answer is yes.

I anticipate that the Short 1479.00 trigger will be hit next.

That's not what I asked. What time was your entry and what time was your exit? Also, at what prices. The times should be on your broker statement.

I just answered you.
The trade started and ended on the 15min bar.

Furthermore, the purpose of this thread is to give alerts and updates as to pending trade setups and mkt timing signals and entry points. I wish to keep it that way. I do not want to get into off topic conversations about my own personal trading or to discuss time of sales.

If you want to know about MY personal trading then I suggest that you read the Pandora journal that I update at the end of the trading day.
