Micro E-mini Madness (2% per day)

Got some good trades today. The market seemed to be topping out. But with the almost guaranteed rate cut tomorrow, prudence was the order of the day. I was not looking for big directional trades but correctly reasoned that we would be in a ranging pattern. MNQ was clearly weaker though, and that is where most of my trades were:

Hi sstheo,

Does your broker send your nightly broker statements with just trade fills, commissions & fees without the timestamp of the trade fills or are the timestamp of your trade fills included in your broker statements ?

AMP's statements do not have a time stamp on the trades.
 
How high can we go? This bit of insanity is amusing as we cut rates at all time highs. I ended down about $40 today.
 
Good day today! I hit it with just one, 2 lot trade. Now if I can just get consistent.

hm... while going through my trades for this week I realized that all of my 15 trades were taken on SHORT side with only 1 loser which I cut it fast. Why I found it interesting is because PA was quite bullish this week... Unbelievable!!!

I had a great day today...one of my best. They say practice makes perfect. What upset me was that in the middle of a trade I got a black screen! Had to restart. When I got back in my trade was upside down and I had to wait some uncomfortable minutes to find my way out with a small profit....funny thing is I would have got out much earlier and taken a loss.

So my trading is not perfected as I have too many questions about me! I tend to agree with sstheo and prefer to take the profit when I see it. I prefer to enter the trade and see it go my way quickly then get out...

Congratulations! Today is a crazy down day in the market after the rate cut, so anyone who is profitable today is to be applauded. Doing well at this task is certainly counter-intuitive.
