  1. Now, the gap is filled, @c1rcle. :)

    NQ not quite there yet.

    This is weak AF. I wouldn't play the bounce yet. We could take out the weekly lows here.

    I'm still long from the bottom and holding, but like Picaso was saying earlier, I am trying to play the longer time frames instead, but I don't like seeing such a big gain evaporate so quickly, even though I think it will go up again.

  3. Not negative - $100 less than what I had after that pre-market trade. :)

    I was up around 2K after that pre-market trade which I legged into by adding. I came into the RTH session a bit late and FOMO-ed a few trades by entering with as much as 5 contracts at once since I was thinking I had a bit of cushion. But 2K is only 8 points on 5 contracts, so I was quickly back to zero.

    So, by that last short I posted the exit of here I was back up to $1.9K. But just as I was about to head out I took a final short to end the day up $3.3K. LOL. I trade 5 linked accounts, so that's around 16.5K on the day.

  4. Let's see what happens when NQ fills the gap from Tuesday. We could be looking at a complete reversal here taking out the current weekly lows, i.e., 5438.

    Both longs and shorts seems risky here and I'm not playing anymore at this point. But if I HAD to trade, I'd be shorting. Preferrably on a weak pop.

  9. Not a fan of a shorting the end of a 144 point move, but there's just no bid here where you'd expect it to be. That's quite a tell.

    Will kill it B/E as this is where you'd expect a bounce.
