I laugh at all the people showing there fancy graphs . Nobody knows outside a few hrs max what the mkt will do . Nobody saw 2965 yesterday and zero people yesterday saw today . Play the mkt at hand each day and try to take some cheese home
I know Rickshaw is loving it. It is zero risk free money. There is, in his immortal words, no risk to this market. I mean, what's a 35% pullback between friends?
Depending on the volatility...was it around 2pm during fed minutes? On Tuesday April 21st 10:30-11am, I went long NSDQ at low 8500's, mkt TANKED 200 points and STAYED down...only to be at 9100 6 days later.....is this normal?? *not trying to make fun of your situation....just trying to shed some humour in this ridiculous market...I go long...which I HAVE NO REASON TO, STILL DO...AND STILL GOT RAMMED...unreal....lol...been gun shy on trades since then. I had a short on NSDQ at 9000 into the close....removed it last second....yup...trading is a momentum game.
Trade was at 13:13 EST buy stop order 2898.75 filled at 2900.25 ...6 tick slippage actaully I very rarely see slippage but 6 tick is too much ...even considering the current liquidty situation ... how people execute more qtys ?
