Thank you--this is the way that I want it and you guys have been very helpful in that regard. There is much more useful info that way as well.
Thursday's positions were good First trade 1.75 pt loser second trade 5 pt winner ( 2 units under the adding system when PNL below zero) so profit of 10 points. 3rd trade 3.25 pt winner 4th trade .75 pt winner Setting a profit target of 10 points as I discussed earlier would have had the second trade as a 20 pt winner instead of 10 pts total. Today, I will add the 10 point profit target to the mix. I may need to make it smaller than that in the future, but I'll start there.
I also thought there would be afternoon selloff. Perhaps afternoon movements are just smaller and should be avoided.
==================== They do tend to be smaller, usually ; and related to that ,takes time for a big trend to develop. Derivative daytraders can usually find a worthwhile afternoon move/moves; especially with profit targets. Also its strange the way when any one mentions a better than average pattern like this , sometimes the day it gets mentioned , opposite happens
=============== Yes ; & I still remember the day mentioned how seldom last half hour hardly ever makes nice moves. Next day, was a 2 or 3 point VERY beautiful orderly trend move last half hour; nothing quite like market to help keep humble. That's a notable move for last 30 minutes
system generated a short signal here at 1321.25 Stop will be at 1322.75 1pt over recent high--one unit--3 minute chart
