There's resistance at 4100, if you don't know already. NQ already cleared above its TL and we're so close to it that I don't think there's any way we would get bogged down by it. I don't think there's any more bears left to resist the bulls. Unless Personal Income data f*cks everything up in the morning. That would be the caveat. But does Personal Income matter in this environment when everyone (including Uncle Sam) is in debt?
happened for me from time to time in 21&1h22 when i was opening 5-8 contracts 75-120rt, just surprised in 80rt you don't flip reversed trades.
Just out of curiosity, how many lots is that per trade? Are they more or less consistent or varies by trade? Also do you trade both sides, eg. long and short? And, if you don't mind, how big is the stop loss?
Intel kills the market, missed big. “What's more, the company is guiding for an adjusted loss of $0.15 per share in Q1. Wall Street was looking for a profit of $0.25 per share.”
ES shot up over 40 points today and you're complaining over a measly 8 point drop? I think the smart money will use any excuse to push the market down so they can get in on the cheap.
I was just commenting on your earlier post from a couple of days ago about a strange move after hours, you said you had never seen it before.
These were 2-4 lots. It was part of a run to check liquidity and scaling code. Short-long don't care. Trending, or chop, don't care. Crazy volatile, it steps aside. Stops are hard, then variable and dynamic. Stops and reversal code was wacky, I THOUGHT. But it turns out it was correct. But I undid it and tried to manually manage. Code trades better than me! Additions were to monitor status better and found one bug. Getting close to set and watch mode. All is going pretty close to plan. Have allocated plenty for the initial runs, representing low single % of total portfolio. So all is under control and within allocations. The trading road is long, and ends with I die! Don't need the income nor the capital. Just FYI: Down 6K for the month and it is not over.
