<b>ES 52 contracts, two turns, +2pts net = +$5,200</b>
What does it take to get one deliberate swing or trend session in the ES per week? Is that really asking too much? Day after day it's program slam = buzz = program slam = buzz.
Long this morning didn't work, -1pt on that
Short around 1:00pm EST worked for +3pts as it bobbed between daily pivot resistance and a cluster of "support" near 1386.
Once it printed +3.75pts I trailed to +3pts and out.
Good Lord... this symbol is in desperate need of an enema
*
Went -5pts in the ER trading way out of synch with that symbol, then made it back to breakeven (plus lunch money) to end the day. Been a terrible performance in the ER this week... should be up nearly +20pts by now, still hovering around par for the efforts. I can blame some on major distractions, but most of the mistakes can be blamed on the face in my mirror. I'm treating the ER like a stepchild this week, and getting the same treatment from it in return.
If this were a sideways or downtrend market, price action would have caved in already. Looks to me like it'll probably go lower, but I've seen enough for one day.
