2 questions for the pros/experts here on trading the ES intraday: 1. Is it ok to trade the ES using the SPX charts? I have been studying the SPX intraday for almost a year now and am more familiar it's pattern. 2. Does it make sense to use a 2 point risk (stop loss) for a 1 point pre-set gain? I can manage several (3 or 4) quick 1 point moves reasonably well with a 2 point stop loss, but don't feel comfortable upping the target. I understand the RR should be the other way round (risk 1: reward 2), just wondering if any pros/experts feel it is ok to go with (risk 2: reward 1) if I feel comfortable with the probability of success.
This thread is going to be rather awkward without Anek's posts and charts. Let's see how long this can you carry on otherwise. How did everyone do today ?
Didn't trade today (apparently lucked out because it seems TS had quite the nasty day). How did you do sir? ~Cx
Bill can you explain what this is and how to implement. I'm using OEC (open e cry) how can i use this. I think the more experienced guys did well today, but I got my ass kicked. I still have a lot to learn, just when I think I'm ready to use real cash, I have a day like this. I'll stick with the sims for a while.
Very well, thank you! I traded for the last 2 hours before american markets close. 1 DAX trade: 675 Euro 3 ES trades: Breakout of the symm: shorted 2ES: +375$ . Covered at 1458.5, way too early. 1 full stop hit a little later (2ES). -200 $ later again a nice short again (2ES) +350$ Nice day papertrading! Too bad I don't have much time to trade. No trading tomorrow, so have nice long weekend all! I roughly show my trades on the attached image.
