Has this Market been bad for Everyone

Quote from fan27:

No Trades for me today. I am slowly learning to avoid these conditions like the plague.

So how do you know when to start trading again??
 
I recently made a rule that if I am going to buy a pullback on the SPY 5 min chart, it must be within the context of a bullish pattern (ie... breakout, breakdown failure, etc..) on the SPY 30 min chart. Same goes for a trade on the SPY 1min chart. confirmation must be made on the 5 min chart. This obviously not a mechanical system I am trading.

This new rule was instated after being thoroughly spanked on Monday. I didn't trade today or Wednesday, and both tuesday and thurs were profitable. Hopefully this trend can continue.

Noticing the action on the Emini today.. not many good trades..

This consolidation period hasn't been offering much.. at least not to my liking anyway..

Hope it breaks out soon...

Depends on your style.

If you can't play breakouts, why not play ranges?
