Well, hell. Back in again at 52.00. I need to figure out how to just stay in my original trade. @Buy1Sell2 has it figured out. Even when he's getting stopped out, though, I've seen him continue trying to get back into his position. Guess I'm not alone?

@Overnight, are you still short?
whoever is setting stpps at 3 pts needs to get their head examined
Out at 7947.75. Geez. I should have just stayed in from the beginning.
What do you suggest instead? 3 points is plenty for me. My problem is bringing my stops up to breakeven + 1
What do you expect from the China data? Market pop or drop?
I really don't expect anything with the actual data, but I expect a reaction. If that data comes in weaker than projections, down the market some. If stronger, up some. But I took my profits early because I didn't want this trade while I sleep. Even though it was 3 MNQ, which is tiny mouse balls, I need some rest. EVERY trade I take on, I take very serious. It is exhausting.

Interesting market reaction. China GDP flat, but industrial production up, Retail sales up, Unemployment up. Mmm. Such difficulties. The ball is in Powell's/Trump's court now. I hate trading equities through shit like this.
Blah, back to energies for me.
