I talk to myself all day long making an argument each way..so this is therapy for me. But that's fine that your a bit more "reserved" or succinct. Whatever works.. for you
what i really want is someone to confirm my ramblings or make make a coulterpoint...let's throw ideas and insight around a bit. (ps not asking anyone to give up their bread & butter plays just general market talk as it plays out )
I get what you mean and thats great that you are flexible enough to with your mentality.
But for me, thoughts run through my mind all day long, and I don't want to dwell on any one thought unless there is a strong reason to. If I post my thoughts publicly they have a more permanent effect and I will likely cling on to those thoughts longer than I need to.
Overtime I bet that my real time calls will speak more about how I think then my random thoughts posted publicly.
Have a great day and thanks to everyone that took the time to post.

i called for 1223 today we didn't see it (we did see 1222) but the point is I knew we were going higher at the time. And thats all needed to make $.
Isn't day trading a bit like swingtrading but your stops are smaller?
True in a way, but for some reason its harder for me to see the levels on the day time frame...like the trade Instynct talked about
when at 10:05 the NQ went back to 2170, I would have a hard time buying that as I would think it would race even further down, as in what makes 2170 the line in the sand to buy??
I have a problem with being way to exact on things, and I just need to learn that trading isn't an exact science, there is give in take in it.

Today is kinda of hard for me. although it is bullish, the market doesn't offer good entry . The only long entry i can have is around 11:00am.After that, market seems unwilling to go up, however, it doesn't want to go down either..
