OK, here's my trades through 11:30 AM CST today. My first trade was a loss, I got in on the failed bottom. It was looking shaky and I had a...
Max, here is my chart for this morning that I just set up. This is the 770 tick chart, but I pulled all the lines from the 2400 tick chart. I...
John, that's why I use the 2400 tick chart. Usually you can see areas that have acted as both support and resistance, and often times, it may...
Max, I agree 100%. I trade from a 770 tick chart, but I find my S/R and trendlines on the 2400 tick chart, then transfer them to my trading chart...
I took another short at around 1:20 today and added another 12 ticks to my profit for the day. Again, I pulled out when it started to turn up....
I agree here. Not to pick on you, but this is what I used to try and do.... trade the break outs. I was unsuccessful more times than not I might...
More of the same today. No real break out yet, just a steady grind down around the LOD. I did get short on the pull back around 9:44 AM, and it...
That's a good question, but one I'm not sure I can answer, as I haven't put much thought into it. My thought process is that many times you can...
Here's my chart, and as the previous poster said, these small break outs near the LOD seemed high risk to me, so that was exactly what I was...
I had a decent day today, but made a mistake which cost me from making much more in the ES. I got in on the first break down this morning, and...
One other thing I forgot to mention. The turn at the top would have actually been a great place for you to exit. You had just gone long off a...
One thing I noticed when I opened your chart is that the area where you got stopped out was the value area of the trading day. Price is bouncing...
I had a losing day on Thursday as well, but I think I made progress still. I lost on my first trade out of the gate. I took the long on the last...
I agree with the support level being key. I took this trade as well, but only because it bounced at an area that I had marked as a major support...
I trade with AMP using their Global platform. (global is the same platform as Open E-Cry). I like it because I can trade directly from the...
This is good constructive criticism. Thanks for reminding me of what I should already know! :)
I don't actually use the MA's for trading. They have been on my charts so long that I actually don't even notice them any longer, thus I didn't...
As you described, I got chopped to death as well. I actually made a little money in the afternoon, only to give it back at the close. I knew...
Like you, I saw the short set up, but could not bring myself to pull the trigger. I had some profit locked in already, and after watching this...
There was no weakess today. If you had bought on the first higher low this morning, you could have hung on, moving your stop, even keeping it...
