I am long the MES for 2 contracts. :)

Quick gap fill trade. Tight stop, as you can see. Will consider adding to the trade if it climbs a little before filling. The beauty of the MES is that you can scale in and out, that is, unless you've got huge courage and will take that risk with full-size contracts for this type of trade.

EDIT: Stop break even plus 1 at 3007.75. These turn so dang quick that it's not worth the risk of ever letting it go against once you're in profit. IMO.

And, just like that, stopped out breakeven plus 1.
 
Got back in. Looks like we might have a little more momentum than just filling the gap. Watching closely to see.

A question, and a suggestion.

A) Damn, that looks like Ninja8, yes?

B) If you are using the snipping tool to capture it, do so in a smaller window, as a jpeg, so we can see your positions better. Not all of us have 40" monitors. :-)

Sorry about that, guys. Thanks for letting me know how it comes across. :)
