  3. To be helpful, can you post a chart with all the technical indicators that you use if you use any that includes an actual day trading entry and exit where you were successful for either ES or CL or both?

  4. If you feel this is too dangerous to post in a public forum, can you just e-mail me the chart to oraclewizard77@yahoo.com.

    A few words about GC, since this is the only instrument that I have 2 contract positions single direction. Why, the GC since made teh 1168 low in August, never give a solid retest to the CHEN's zone. now it is touching the top edge of the zone. It could be touching the bottom too, 1180ish, or even retest the low of 1168, and of course, go lower than that. Probability wise, in those order, i.e., now is bigger than 1180, which is bigger than 1168, which is bigger than even lower. As a trader, one has to prepare for the worse case scenario, that will be my moment of cut loss, hopefully in a way that will not lose money. What way? Wait and see.

    Nothing to change in this account, it is a wash week, but a wash is better than losing, be positive, traders!

    Since I am using a different computer it does not keep the trade of ES selling at the day's high of 2932. A perfect sell, this does not happen often enough, LOL. A lesson for this account is I set the profit taking target of RTY and NQ too aggressively, thus RTY missed by 3 points, NQ by a lot more. Each could be a locked in profit, sizable too. But it is what it is, got to live with it and fight another day.

    The buy order of 2915 should easily get filled tomorrow morning at a hint of weakness. If the weakness is strong, ready to add at a big drop prob. around 2900, thus:

    NQ was stronger than the overall market today, trying to get out of my short higher, adjusted.
