[nitro]

A journal for those that want to randomly or not, no stress post your best feeling trade once in a while if that is all you can contribute, post live TA&PA calls. A simple description would suffice of the method would suffice.

That is fine, but am I the only one confused by what you are saying? I don't understand the trade is what I am saying. Just clarify.

During sunday/monday morning 3am EST I will long the Dow Futures (YM-September), I dont know what price will be at that time, but whatever it is I will buy it.

My fixed stop/risk, is 2.5% below last weeks low. Dow cash low was 15054 so emergency stop is 14677 but applied to dow futures.

My target is tuesday 4pm EST.

Sorry for the confusion.

Nitro, these calls are useless without risk parameters. I'm sorry, but both your threads will create no value. Instead what you should do is offer two numbers, your target touch and your knockout stop that voids the call. Let's try to shoot for a minimal level of credibility here. I know this is ET but it's still in the journal section, there are a "few" standards here.
