Honestly... Who is Successfully Making money as of Today in The YM/ES?
- Thread starter Bullz n Bearz

I hate trading it sucks
I am scalping Crude but I have been also tading ER2 and YM lately and today I started trading off the 4 second bar charts instead of the 16 second charts (Sierra Charts)that I normally use.
Trading off the 98 share bar chart in TS has been working all along ( I understand lot of people use that setting).
As far as I can tell the usual indicators work very well when the markets are tense because the price over swings from the imaginary mean and creates opportunities to fade the market from both sides.
The volume ebb and flow pattern is very clear even on the macro scale like the 4 second or 16 second charts and specially on the one minute. It's really a trader's dream.
In this kind of market one can get hosed but at least there are many opportunities during the day to recover.
And yes, I made money both in ER2 and YM.

I saw Osorico trade today, I can attest to his record.
He saw me trade, and can attest to my bumbling mistakes!
