You could have had 1318. I think risk is to downside now though. I think we may take out lower lows.

 

Nice trade.

 

there were very few trades at 1302.25 so the chances of a fill are small.

 

Ordinarily you would be right, however he had placed the order very early so there would be a very good chance he was filled.

Refer to his post , price at the time and the odds are pretty good he was filled.

NiN

 

Yes you are correct NiN, I was in the book early enough to get filled. It happens to me once in a while as we've discussed before, due to luck mostly of course. The good news is it stopped the market dead from declining any further, lol.

 

Asking 1319 on a short with a tight stop this time at 1322.75

 

back in short 1317
stop @ 1320
(probably pushing my luck. Short!??.....the ES???....and on a TDAY?!! )

 

No one really knows what anyone could've had except after the fact. I'm ecstatic though that I got 1316 after the nasty flush in the after hours.

 

He can say what he wants after the fact and the trade worked out. 98% of futures traders lose money yet 98% of the paper traders of et make money. People post there entries and exits on here but the chance ofthem holding threw the ups and downs in the real world are zero.those are the facts.But the board is entertainment

 

I'm not going to get into an argument with you on this board. You're entitled to your opinion. To each his own.
