So this is 3 or 4 days in the red for the market... (the first one, to me is a doiji or flat day), any thoughts?
Not ES, but check out the weekly and Monthly candles of NVDA. Looking like blowoff top. If it really closes the month at 110 as the chart shows, will be very interesting how they can possibly manipulate the market to keep going up. It would almost show a crash top. I'm seeing bearish charts, but it's tough to believe unless the tape of this market ever changes. It always feels like it's going higher anyways.
Regarding NVDA, I think this selloff is being manipulated so they can get in at a discount. There's a visible gap at 95-ish, so that would be a good place to go long IMO. Anyway, QQQ could go down to 460 so look out.
I no longer watch anything other than ES when I am trading. When I see NQ making a move opposite of what the ES seems to be doing it gives me paralysis. When I do look at the NQ once I'm done trading, I see all those tasty ticks it offers in comparison to the ES's sometimes meager offerings. I'm momentarily tempted to switch from ES to NQ. Then I remember that all those tasty ticks could be losses just as easily as profits, and I stay with ES.
Same situation as yesterday. I have a day job that from time to time requires my attention. Two trades and very similar to yesterday where the long was stopped on a trailing stop, the short hit my profit target. The long trade hit my profit target but I prematurely moved my trailing stop. Had I followed my plan, I'd not have been stopped and I'd have had a full profit on two trades. This is a common error I make. Very specific rule for trailing my stop, but I move to lock in +4 ticks and that's what I end of getting. I again have just over +5 points net and I won't risk it for more as I only have 20 minutes before I would have to stop trading.
