So my other kid is sick today. No trades, and unfortunately today's rule worked as it should have (contrarian short).
Crazy move in the Globex session. Will watch for some exhaustion on the 15-min chart, but want a good entry. And this is technically one of the...
I got the stomach bug Sunday night so no trades for me yesterday. Signal is a very mixed one today. Doesn't always mean no good trades, but it...
No trades today. Sick child and signal was not a strong one.
So, I just did a short analysis of my trades in January-February to date. Good lessons in total I think. I need to stand down on 1 particular...
Mistakes chasing/second-guessing. Not disastrous, but not great. Turning off computer and off to exercise or something.
Today my signals are mixed so I am waiting for some directionality at the open. If spikes up, have a small, small fade planned. If hesitates or...
And it didn't. I see sort of a red flag, but I will just note with my journal and notes on rules. I cannot put so many exceptions in that the...
I'm in short at 59.00. Looks stronger than usual. Said that PM, but until/unless there's something I see that's just wrong with a rule, I have...
Order active for short; hope get a retest and it holds...it could take a while to fall if it holds. Looks scary, but going off of stats and...
Looking for retest of 58.75-59.25. 100% of my samples retest or have entry after 9:00 so I am watching it. Today feels a bit different, in which...
So, looking at probably a 2-sided day unless ES opening higher than 58.75, then will be more directional. Could still be directional, but will...
I don't trade like that - I want my entry to fill before 11:30 or something is wrong with the pattern I'm trading because I'm looking for certain...
I meant it didn't revisit -138% so I didn't get filled, not that there was an issue with the order itself. Just not aggressive enough. I...
I didn't get my retest at R3 today. I think most days like this I used -100% or -138%, which coincidentally was right by R3. So had that on the...
Took off last week for winter break at kid's school. Today's signal is/was some continuation and then exhaustion. Always tentative about...
Stopped out. Counting as -1R for stats even with smaller size because want to keep track of what actually happens...
I am in short 2208.25, stop just above R1. I'm in half size because this is a setup I have fewer stats on. And I'm nervous about being overly...
I see a distinction now on the 5-min chart. Never before seen so today's action makes sense. I'm Ok missing something I cannot statistically...
No exhaustion yet so I'm probably standing aside today unless this goes sideways for a long time. I know I look at it and second-guess the short...
