<b>44 contracts ES, one full turn, two 1/2 position trades
long trade +3pts, short trade +1pt = +4pts x 1/2 positions
+$4,400 gross</b>
Long trade trailed out for +3pts on the low tick before buy programs kicked the tape upward mere seconds later... more than +3pts higher from actual exit. That's second day in a row of exiting on low tick before buy-program slams.
Traded 1/2 positions per turn due to overall price action... not the type of structure I prefer to trade.

Nothing in the ER today... didn't attempt to trade the morning, that's where all the real juice was. Another opening bell levitation, then muted swings for 5.5 hours to follow. Little afternoon dip offered paltry gains, but no big deal.
"Low-Beta" account means boring. Just chipping away at the stone, picking up small gains here & there until range or trend sessions grace our charts. Very boring intraday (in)action right now... not likely to last much longer.
