coast to coast like butter & toast in a day is a flat out sick move.

looks like we may visit that 1510 swing hi sooner rather than later.

 

I just want an answer to my question

any shorts still standing?right now were almost at 1500

???

 

I've been stopped out, but that's ok, part of the trading game and good r/r IMO. I hope you are not referring to me as the village idiot...

Edit: was it you a while back that called apex an idiot?

 

I already posted that I covered a couple of hours ago ES = 1487ish

Shoulda gonna longa

 

Short from 98.25 .. probably stop out, but small bet. Will try again near 1510.00-1512.50


Edit: Took 1/2 @ 93.75; stop moved to 98.00

 

I don't know of any regular posters here who trade without stops (other than Saxon), so my guess is that those who shorted covered a long time ago.

 

I thought he traded with a dollar stop of -$15,000 per day? I could be wrong as I did some skimming when I fell behind on the board. (I don't usually post my stops, but they are out there somewhere, for island I'll post it tomorrow)

 

Last 4 trading sessions have been dissapointing, hope you made money on your analyses, which so far have been very cool.

 

rule of 10 + 10 + 10 - 10


(1468.5 to 1499.25, 1489.25)

 

I was thinking about chart-based stops (i.e. market action trades to X level means cover short/liquidate long).
