NQ emini very slow lately??

I have to second what savage is saying about the potential for a good number of NQ points even in this market. I'm not as consistant yet as he is but still manage to pull 10 to 30 points out of the market when I don't go against my system. Pulled 19 out today but ended up giving some back in the afternoon, ended up w/ 15 total on 1 contract before paying my broker.

Sure you can make money, I agree. People should stop blaming the market, it's moving all over the place, what are they looking at? I mean see attached, this is only the first hour of the day.
 
I have to thank Savage for inspiring me to rework my trading plan to account for "chop" that occurs most of the day. I Currently use a combination of Murray Math and the Force now to target 4 points out of the NQ mini's wiggles. Here is today's record of trades so far. Unfortunately missed the morning due to a phone call (arg!), which is my most consistent money making period.

Well, I guess I have to figure out a way to benefit from all that chop as well. The ES is really driving me crazy today. The Force is that the Elder Force Index?

I was being facetious about the Force (Star Wars). Here is the balance of my day--quitting early while I'm ahead. I just use price to base my entries and exits--no indicators. :)

22 points or $397 net.

Keep posting those gifs.

It is really interesting to see where I was buying or selling to you guys.

A couple of spikes, I was on the exact opposite trade. :(
 
Here's things that are common for them:

They do alotta trader per day like 10+. They don't go for homeruns just the opposite, they go for like 3 point hits. They have an amazing winning trade %. They are very nimble on exits, take alotta scratches. Most of them use alot of discretion. They all have some kind of a method. Many use a lot of indicators confirming each other.

Now I've yet to see an example of such a method that would work for me. And, yea they are not much into sharing :)
