Stops out at 1046 (+0.25)

I seem to always move a stop too soon. Too much fear to be a good trader

 

...I'm thinkin this is the pause before we go higher.. only a thought mind

 

Now ES has traded below the open (1043), it would be interesting to see if it can penetrate the open again to the up side. If it fails, it will be a bearish sign in short term.

I wish I hadn't moved my stop. My mind is too weak to hold a good trade.

 

I find the previous close more signifcant, and treat this as the open

 

You are right that the previous close is significant. But when there is a gap, and the market has been trading beyond the gap, I found the current day's open becomes more significant.

 

covered all YM 9705, 9709, +0, +41.

 

congrats, the boat came in, Long @ 03, small size, off to cook some sausages

 

Traget up in the 30's, Stop placed @ 03 - don't fancy getting involved in a wilting end of dayer -

 

pretty unlikely we get major tankage on a low volume psuedo-holiday like today. wish i had been paying attention 30 minutes ago and joined you, lol.

 

Stopped out for flat...coulda/shoulda painted the windows instead today.... still fancy long but no new positions so late
