Ok but if I could have made money it would have been better. Currently down 300. 49.4K Kinda Short right now. 3875 ? Support @ 3890 still holding. I see 3910 at worst. Normally you don't fight the tape. But we've made kind of a double top at 3900 Covered my short. Let's see if we reach 3905 No need to be too early. Being wrong is bad enough. Well did short 3900 again. Target 94, 92, 91. Even though TP is for sucker.
TP is for sucker. Anyway. Down 246$ today. Down 550$ overall. But my trading is getting better. I feel like I can make the 550$ back tomorrow. Let's see. (Fills explain PnL)
I get it now, I found TST website and checking them out. I see many entries on your screens and they look random to me. What are you trying to achieve? Trend following or mean reversion?
Trend following. But yeah entries are ... kinda randoms. Was buying tiny breakouts on the ladder but it reverse most of the time. Breaks higher then breaks lower. Breaks lower then breaks higher. Was buying tiny tops and selling tiny bottoms. But I figured it out. Works well though when there is a strong and quick moves but these are not the norm. I zoomed out. Added trendlines. 5min chart instead of 1min + ladder. I measure move and get a feel for what’s next. Look HH HL LH LL and support / Resistance 50% retrace also. Watch the 1h chart too. ABC pattern. Was looking to apply Darvas method on the ladder level but it's too noisy and I bought the top and sold the bottom but I might not have applied it correctly. Too much for too little.
Some better fills there in this little range. Had some troubles with my shorts. Did open then close, then reopened. Still got one contract running Had two, closed one @ 75 Thought we would pull back to 71 (Entry) Entered on more contract at 74 Another one @ 73 Did pull back 71 Out 68.75 ... It just broke like shit.
I thought you were talking about this $150K TST COMBINE harvester machine: definitely, it is not. So what is this combine thing you are talking about?
