  3. geez,
    Another winning week. Just 14 more weeks like this and you can take the rest of the year off (4 trades per week) or go for 100%. I say go for 100% and kick butt.

    Friday was a tough day to catch a decent trend...lot of nasty swings.

    Thx Scorpiano.....I would love 14 weeks like that!
    I pulled up friday's charts and almost every pattern I look for on the indexes/stocks I follow failed, so to walk away with just 2 losses after a strong week...I 'm perfectly fine with that.

    Mon moring I'm looking to get into LMT long due to the sell-off on the daily chart, the large volume on friday, and the gap down tis a.m.

    good trading all!!

    Playing the 5 min higher low after it retraced 100% of the last 5 min bottom.
    The daily chart is oversold and gapped down this a.m. into a prior support area.
