ES Journal - 2013

  1. its always amazing how many people on this thread are shorting days like this, when the easier play is to just follow the trend. I don't doubt that some of you make money, as I've seen some of the same people on this thread for years. Its just mind boggling the amount of shorts that are just averaging down.

    If anybody cares, i do have a short bias for the rest of the afternoon LOL (no position yet though). But b/c I posted it, the market is likely to move up !

  3. lol to hafez50's fantasy long (never posted). You shorted 46.50 and added at 51.50 and you never covered. So you're down 25 on how many contracts? lmao.

  5. LOL, 100%! You clown. Bitches about volente's credibility while you're the biggest fraud on this board. I don't see volente missing a fill... yet you've magically gone from short to long. Where is the short cover? Where is the long fill?

    hafez50 is short (and added) from 46.25:

  7. I don't either...Builder. Hats off to anyone that got long early (last night). I have a short 51 that I'm looking to hedge off by selling a put, but just don't see any rational for a 17 pt gain today. Until oil comes down more and there is some...some....clarification on Syria I'm pretty neutral the market, Tennis and lunch was definitely a better choice of activities today.

    oh and Hafez..."a picture is worth 1000 words".

  8. I don't know if 'rational' is the right word to use here, but there were many signs pointing to at least a morning session up day. I for one did not see this trending all day, but the morning push up, at least from what I look at in the ES, was statically probable.

    We were held at DOW 15000 below a major Pivot Line and Trend Line Intersection and the low end of a Gap. Then the news that Syria was willing to negotiate on their WMD hit the tape and rest is history.

    Actually the same level was also the 50% Fib back to the high. Just more Confluence.
