Just moved my stop to break-even on the ES short entered at 1536.75. Currently +2 on that trade.
Is that a fancy way of saying that you're looking to go short here?
JJ, looks like you don't measure gap closure from the close of RTH, but rather the high of the closing bar on some timeframe? Can you explain?
Did you take it? Seems to me you called it rather early, so I'm curious how you played it.
I'm now short ES from 1536.75, initial PT LOD. Stop 1538.00. My downtrend line from yesterday's LOD was finally breached, and quite vigorously,...
Something like this (except more of them)?
I believe Apex uses the flip-of-the-coin method. His trick is to use Canadian coins. :)
You obviously drew yours a bit differently than I did. I showed that we just kissed the uptrend line but did not violate it. My line was drawn on...
Unfortunately not. I had a sell limit order in at 1543.00 (exact HOD so far) but didn't get filled. I seem to be having a lot more trouble with...

Here we go!!! :D
Are you speaking of the huge volume surge yesterday right around 4pm?
I'd wait for a solid-gold reversal bar. Looks to me like the bulls are still firmly in control.
Um, the 5-point excursion in the ES at 8:30-8:35...was that when the US non-farm payroll data was released?
No, Tradestation dosn't "think" anything. The automated strategy in question takes a time parameter, and I set it to 1313 (that's Paciric time)....
I raised my protective sell stop to break-even at my entry price of 1532.25. That's still lower than Thursday's close (so I won't get stopped out...
From my "a funny thing happened" file... Thursday at 2pm, I placed a limit order to go long ES at 1532.25 but was slow on the draw and didn't...
Are those levels predicated on yesterday's price action? Specifically, the horizontal movement around 2:30-3:30 pm before the market took off to...
