Much better day today. I went long ES when I confirmed it was not a false breakout, but when watching CNBC ticker for S&P realized that I kind of got into the trade a little late so took 1 point, but could have gotten at least 1.5. Then went in a Euro short after it was not able to break resistance, a forex trader was able to get in better than me, but still was able to get 10 tick scalp. He was trying for around 30 ticks. On a smaller position, I then closed out at BE when EURO came back up to my entry point after hitting target. I am currently re-shorting at a better price with the same small position that I will aim for more ticks since I got a better entry and leave stop alone. I think I am in a better position than him unless he added to his trade. I don't want to go heavy like previous trade since it will probably play out after hours and want to stay net positive for day.
Honestly, I eyeballed that one, I had a finger on the close all positions hot button in case it got ugly. Whenever volente starts talking DEMTDAYBOYZ, I get nervous holding a short. Those jokers have burned me too many times
I currently closed 2nd Euro short at a small profit since it looks like we are caught in a bullish Andrew's pitchfork. I see 1 other long ES trade that I missed in hindsight. I think I should have set a price alert to have me look at ES chart, but was focused on euro trade, and did not feel like watching charts after I finished that scalp at a profit.
