The best ES "day trading" mkts in years

The "trendiness" combined with the ranges, is making this quarter one of the best for day-trading the ES in many years, for me.

I am socking away a large per cent of my money for the "rainy day" when the chop returns and the ranges contract, but for now, may it continue, please.

I just did what all good traders should do, adjust the trading to what the market is giving you. A friend actually turned me onto the eminis, I was looking at starting currency but he was already trading eminis. Well, with a little chart adjustments from the Internet days, here we are trading the eminis.


It is a lot like playing the moves of the late 90's Internet stocks. Not exactly the same but similar enough to make the
