Note To Self.....

Actually, this week was not so bad. We had one incredibly decent move, 150 points in the Dow intraday. If you caught that, you were set for the whole week. Then the rest of the week was rather predictable (meaning also tradeable) sideways. Bollinger worked like a charm...
 
How come you're always expected to catch the big move but not be caught by them.

Oh, yeah, , thats right, only take tiny microscopic losses and ride all winners to within 99.98% of the move.

Sorry , I forgot.

Early Alzheimers.
 
Yeah, and how come traders use phrases like amazing, incredible, unreal, wowza, when we've all seen this same old crepe 1000 times.

Takes lot to amaze me.

Luck, pure luck... :)

OK, I explain. I assume the thread starter was complaining about the lack of action this week. Well, there was action and trending on Monday, and for the rest there was well tradeable sideways movement. So after all this wasn't such a bad week for futures traders, although volume was not there for stocks....

Trading between Christmas and New Year's sucks.:eek:

that's why the successful traders take a 12 week vacation at year end.

Hmmm.....Don't know about 12 weeks, but this week didn't show me what I need to see (for the most part).
