Appreciate the insight, but I don't believe this to be true. A great trader should be able to handicap (timing, quantity, risk/reward) any...
IMO any independent trader that successfully daytrades ES is probably a statistical savant. They sure as fuck wouldn't be here jaggin off with us.
This line of thinking is a huge neophyte pitfall. You go where the action is. There is always something else expanding when ES has inside days.
To be quite honest, I know many independent professional daytraders that trade equities, but not one professional ES daytrader, and I live in...

So IOW you want us to exchange our know something trades for your know nothing trades? This thread is getting even more comical.
Why don't you start by showing us your live trades so we can all have a nice laugh. Don't forget, you came here asking for help and advice on...
My 20,000 hour/10 year learning curve could be taught to you within months. More variables and conditions involved than just posting a screenshot...
What knowledge can you possibly gain if I showed you one trade?
Exactly. High capacity markets constantly back and fill. Look at a 1 minute chart of ES compared to a stock that averages a million shares a day....
