It would be nice to be able to delete about 5 pages worth from this thread. Alas I do not possess the power.
As for the position: still holding 26 and the balance is around -4K (with overall +10K booked). Waiting at 1217 to unload another 5.
As for posting. I no longer post trading related stuff or stay active in ES Journal. Sadly most threads end up the way this one is. High school kids playing with 5K accounts dreaming of being profitable and joining Trump for lunch. LOL.
I have been registered on ET since 2006 and was lurking for about 6 months prior to that. My account does not have 10.000 posts in its count. I have not changed my handle since day one. I do not start new threads every day and I am not an attention whore like sadly some on ET proudly are.
The reason for this thread was that most of the time I finish my trading day happy with some $$$ in the bank. Unfortunately, from time to time the market is not cooperating and I get squeezed. I just wanted the folks to see, feel, and participate in my ride.
Like I said I almost never put this kind of cars/money on the line. This trade was unusual and stupid to which I admitted at the start of this threat. I got cocky and almost had a financial knock down. We all get careless, the difference is that I also got a bit lucky. Will the outcome be the same next time around? I hope there will not be a next time.
Wishing you all the best!

P.S. Guys, come on a little bit more class and less bickering.... please.
I personally don't give a rat's ass if it's sim or live, but can you explain how you apparently paid less than $10 in comms? Or how, if comms are not deducted from the dom, that the loss at 27.50 conflicts?
I don't see how this dom can be accurate given your average entry and MTM loss on the pic you posted.
I think I'm going to buy some more ammunition now. Where has America gone?
