Hi Gary,

I didn't want to short there because I wait 4-5 ticks before entering after a level is broken, and doing that wouldn't give me two points before the level at 736.00. It would give me 1.5ish points, but, I'd rather wait to get the two points.

Hope that answers the Q...

The level I marked had been taken out by the big up move. Your chart was and still correct. Good job.
 
:) Awesome. That was in my thought process, too, from the last chart I posted where there was an upmove that took out a level I wanted to trade, but you corrected me there.

Thanks again, Gary! You, and this thread, rock!

Hope your trading day goes well today:)

Looks like we have hit a major resistance level and bounced off. I am not sure at this point if it will mark the end of this rally or not at this point. The important thing to keep in mind is to stay market neutral.

While I understand what you are getting at I still believe every individual deserves the benefit of the doubt as to whether they make it or fail in this business. I don't think you/I/we should judge whether someone will make it. I am sure if I said that everybody would fail at this I would be right more times than wrong but I don't need to be right that bad. Besides you never know you might be talking to the next Dan Zanger of eminis.
