  1. And flat for 70 points on 3 contracts across 5 accounts. Booyah! Beautiful fake down move. :)

    My rationale was simply the strong downside momentum as shown on the daily chart, triple witching day negative bias and that open election gap just below. I figure I had a great bit of luck on the trade, too!

    I'm locking up my account for the day and taking a breather here as I'm f**cking exhausted and I'm in no state to trade well even if today can be a day with great opportunity. Been sleeping poorly these last few days and only got 4 hours tonight and had to double up on the oxazepam to settle in. Yesterday was prefaced with a 14 hour workday in the office, but when opportunity comes knocking...

    Good luck all. :)

    The market has awoken to a looming US gov't shut down and the realization that we've elected our first immigrant to the White House, President Musk.

    As a trader, I think it is going to be a fun four years.

    Nice trade, you probably got out almost to the tick at the LOD.

    Stay healthy!

    Inflation data is just a day trade now. This market is now a two-way day trader's wet dream.

  8. What a recovery. That's why I laugh when people think futures matter. Was hoping it would bounce off that 50 day MA, but it happened during the fake futures session.
