Are you referring to the chart you posted above in which the only short area you marked was around 1431 (but ES continued up to 1441)?
Look at COMPLETE ES DAYTRADING SETUP for today - always in Blog, before market Open http://vector-trading.blogspot.com
OK, I was only going by what you posted in this thread. Your blog post says swing short at 1438-40, but your post here in the thread says swing short 1430 - 40, which is a very large range. I guess you typed it wrong in this thread.
I trade any different time frames. For Swing I use Daily charts and Futures/ ETF Options. Then I build step-by-step Short position in range 1430-40 and target is 1400-1405+- For Daytrading I use at the same time 15 min charts and ES. i will precisse Entry at trading Levels and standard target is 2-5 points, at swing levels 10 points.
Todays result: Daytrading ( levels ): +2,5 p. per contract Cover swing positions in SPY from yesterdays scaling in 1.430-40 SELL SWING area ( at 1410 )
