SS 9493 .1s

stop to .96

:39 stop to BE

stopped...looks bullish for/if 9530 break

 

Right there with you. 28 RTH trades today and I am still at BE. I picked great levels today, but when they are too good the entries suffer through slippage. I was routinely getting slipped 10+ ticks earlier this morning. Couple that with the high volatility = hard to hold on to trades without a full stop out or BE.

.....But the static 5 min bars look so beautiful?!?......argggg...grrrrr.

 

If 95.30 gives way, we'll likely go up to 96.50-ish.

Hey, I just gave back 40 ticks and then some. What are you complaining about?

 

Flip long 94.53

Calling it quits after this.

 

Hey, at least you took that trade. I wussed out on that beautiful symmetrical triangle break, too bad it didn't follow through.

You are right nothing to complain about, lucky I was able to dig myself out of an ~80 tick hole. Please excuse my bitching and moaning, I do that a lot

 

Wow, nice move from 94.75 down. What an exhausting day, staying so focused. Although I wish the action was like this all the time. sigh.
