  1. Yes! I got 3 points 19.5 to 16.5 on the way down. Now I feel better. 3 points out of 32 points day. Now I feel bad. :eek:

    What and emotional wreck.

    I am on a 12 step control risk type of a program. :D

    They don't let me trade when the risk is high.

    Edit: Jokes aside the consolidation range was 14 points or so. 3 points is pretty damn good.

    Bro:

    3 points in the green is better than a sharp stick in the eye in this choppy crap.

  5. Look at the ES. The same thing can happen there.

  6. Best day of the week for the little kid (little cuz I only trade 2 or 3 lots). Missed the 7:30 selloff (too scared). But caught '225 to '145 twice!

    note: 116'145 was the 5 day low

  7. Looks choppy and low volume so far. I did manage to scalp 1 point. 116 9 - 10 but the risk/reward is not looking good at all.

    It feels like I am dealing with the scary dude from the previous page.

  9. The shape I am looking at does want to go long.

    It just feels scary. It seems that the big money are waiting. It can change quickly. The SD of the moves to the range of the day is small.

    I will wait for later.

    If you can shave eggs go for it.

    I wander if it will better to trade ZB in situations like this. More to shave there.

    More like Chinese water torture to grab 4 full ticks.
