Yeah I hope so, but I took profits on AMZN already. I still have VIPS and ALXN and FB and all the great stuff.
LOL, thanks for the kind words, truth is ive been struggling a bit as of late, i was mostly a systems trader who would throw in the odd discretinonary trade, and i used to be highly accurate with discretionary trades, but in the last couple months, my old prop firm folded, and stole 75% of my money, so i lost my systems trading stuff, on top of most of my capital, and am starting to rebuild from scratch.
Biggest problem im facing right now is just pure slopiness, taking subpar setups trying to get my 3-5 trades per day, then not taking legit setups cause i took too many sloppy ones early, to make up for what i lost with the systems stuff, so i know its mostly my own problem with discipline, just getting frustrated cause i keep shooting myself in the dick, LOL.
Im pretty good at not losing money, its always been my strong suit, ill admit im wrong 5 minnutes after i take a trade if i dont like it, just need to put myself in better positions, and quit doing stupid things like playing the ES, and kissing off 2 grand before the market even opens.
Anyways thats my rant, thx for listening.

yea, it will be a buy on the profit taking dip...maybe down to 40..then great buying opport
true, Dollar Index DX never once bought into the full version of no more Fed hikes...index anticipated what rumors of no more Fed hikes meant and stayed long and strong...now its about priced for a Dec Fed hike without any volatility what so ever
