chi,
is there anyway to put this as a sticky at the beginning of the thread?
might help, although it is a good idea to "read on my son".

Took a spanking: 1 long loser, -524, 2000 shares
After the Steelers getting spanked why should I be any different.

I must be doing something wrong, filled on 11 longs (9 losers, 2 tiny winners); 3 shorts all winners, not enough to offset the loss on my longs.
I am using 2 envelope levels, .56 and .83.
I used 3.72 as FV and 1453.50 for the ES Z7.
A few of the longs would have worked out I just couldnt react quick enough. I am bailing out between 645-7am PST. I am using 100 shares at each level, ended up -150.
The quest continues...

La strategia de opening es no bueno.....no trabajo no mas, no dinero, no mas!
I agree Mike, I'm giving some serious thought shutting it down or at least scaling it back. I'm starting to think there are better uses for my time during the open. This strategy just isn't what it used to be.
Why do you think you did something wrong? There's not enough information here to tell if you made a mistake in your calculations. Your FV and eMini values were fine.
