Slightly above-average day.
Began trading 5-lots ES this morning. Shorted until 11am, broke until noon and missed some sweet swings.
Started buying the lows and traded it higher all afternoon. Stuck with 5-lots, only turned 20-lots twice on late longs for 0pts and -3pts respectively.
105 contracts turned, 40 on the two failures, few other stops at par. Most trades went for +4pts to +10pts along the way. Expected a squeeze, found one. The trend is our friend, no matter how many times it may change per day
Time to take the ES training wheels off and trade real size next week. Balls are coming out of the purse. 20-lots today would have obliterated my own personal best session, $38+k trading ER last July.
Wonder what the Aug SPX 1400 calls were fetching at session lows? Second thought, I don't dare look. Will make me sick.
