Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

Just left $300 on the table as I wasn't watching the break up above 2076 on ES - oh well, that is what happens when you don't pay attention and go with the flow
Made some money, which is the main thing!

ES moves very fast and it took you more than 1 hr to get 1.5 pts then you got more guts than me.
@Pelt,
I can provide some obvious thingies to my fellow travelers.
1) No one can help you but yourself and this is a long road you mostly travel alone.
2) There is a lot of works involved and you have to spend time. If you know someone solidly good and take a chance on you, you are half way already.
3) To distinguish what are good advises applicable to you, you have to build knowledge & have a correct thinking. It's a major work by itself already. If you don't have a correct thinking to start w/, it will be a frustrate process. What's a correct thinking? Self awareness of your thoughts, premises, assumptions. A major work by itself. In this process, you will learn something and find out later that it's not for you and you have to discard it to build another one. Don't be too frustrate though. The core knowledge still remains and is still useful.
4) Generosity != Obligation. Don't expect the answer to hand out. Better yet, know your question then search for answer. Don't understand it? search some more.
5) Don't believe everything w/o questioning everything to the core.
6) Once you think you're good enough, do it. Apply self feed back for correcting and enhancements.
Good luck.

Well, it is gambling
This brexit shite is interfering with my gardening
Missed the big break up, but not to worry!

I see you point, and how frustrating it can be - but that is life!
How about if I stop posting trades, will that help?

Are you kinda hedging your bet ?
Long ES & Short NQ.
