5 and 15 now are in agreement and in uptrend. I now look to the 1 minute chart for entries and exits.
Sure. However, the market can be range bound as well. Not always trending. In fact, most of the time ES is range bound on the day session. As can be seen - the market snapped right back up below 3900 as I suggested could happen. Anyone who shorted near the lows or at the lows are now in the red.
All well and good. But the objective is to be in a trade, not call for one. Intra day trend flip flops no doubt. But overall it is down and has been a year so probabilities say most days thinking down is ... the way to think.
Also as I posted earlier RTH DDF suggested no bias either way. So long and short trades would acceptable. Intra day.
Right. But you did say: And then the market rallied off the lows. Earlier today, you also talked about the trend being down, down, down as well. And the market rallied 45 points. Now, this isn't to knock on you. But the point is that saying the trend is down doesn't necessarily translated into profitable trading. Usually, when the trend is clear it's too late unless it's a very strong one.
