Wrong so far in RTH. Waiting for 5750 now for the 3rd attempt. If that doesn't hold, I was dead wrong today. It happens...
Gotta love the magical V force. Back to highs of the day. Every drop is fake and just triggers the V. Never ending bull market.
Not so sure about the day at this point. I'm tempted to buy, but waiting for a new low if that happens. It's possible that the situation in the ME is enough to kill any rally today going into the weekend.
I want to share a painful lesson to young traders here. Maybe you can learn something from it too. I've been trading all kind of instruments for almost two decades now and spending more than a decade trading Futures. I only became profitable within the last few years. Currently I'm trading several accounts including funded accounts from TST and E2T. Since I've some gambling problem due to itchy fingers, I decided to open an account with 6 figures where I called it a mixed account so I can trade everything. There's no way I can make consistent profits in this mixed account until this summer when my wife gave me a lecture about how I'm wasting my time for years gambling it as it keeps going underwater. Not until two months ago, I finally made a decision to trade only reliable setups while testing out some others with strict conditions like tight stop loss and etc. As you can see for the last two months, I begin to turn this account around and the watermark keeps hitting higher high. It took a hit again last month due to a disaster trade when I became biased. I spent more than a week trading everything trying to bring it back, but it became worst. I took a deep breath after that and told myself to STOP gambling. Guess what? Not only I'm able to bring it back, it now keeps going up. Starting from today, no more gambling for me. I'll treat this account like others. So, this is my lesson and hopefully, you guys don't make the same kind of mistakes over and over and over again for years like me. Of course, it's going to get boring while waiting for reliable setups to trade. However, I don't have to deal with mental stress like ruining my day due to my itchy fingers. Good luck to everyone and thank you for reading.
