<b>ES 44 contracts, two turns, +2pts net = +$4,400</b>
Initial long this morning was up +3.75pts, trailed stop to +3pts, was clipped out on the swing low before squirting upwards more than +5pts from entry mere seconds later.
Second long trade (blended entry) 1382.25 = stop 1381.25 which then stopped out to the exact tick low, now trading more than +3pts higher from entry.
*
<b>ER 2 contracts, four turns, -2pts net = -$400</b>
First two trades stopped at par ( -0- ) while last two longs stopped at -1pt each before all four promptly wiggled higher.
Final long ER trade was entered more than +4pts below current price levels printing as I type... but to no avail :<(
**
Gap & surge move early, deliberate upward bleed into the closing bell. Right side of all trades... stop loss orders simply didn't hold as expected.
Another one of those "mystery" gap & go upside moves absent of sellers once the buy programs kick in. Next we'll see what election day has to bring :>)

Not a bad day - nice moves on LMRA - too bad my head is in my ass to hold my positions long enough.

I found today to be frustrating and difficult. I just churned and churned. Lots of small losses, small winners, and commissions.

just one of those days where the stars aligned and i was too tentative to make the most out of it.
