6/4/21 -$50 (-2 tick, 2 contracts) Stopped out for a small loss. Comparing the overall setup of the day and resistance levels to other days to see if there's anything that can be learned from this.
Classic strong accumulation up today. I miss last month when everyday (first half of the month) had a clean 1-2-3 pattern at open...
6/7/2021 +$625 (+25 ticks, 2 contracts) Skipping the stop loss trail on inside bar has been working out really well! Overall has made a lot more than the times it led to a larger loss. I received many questions amongst my group about today's trade so I wrote out the rules on the chart.
6/8/21 +4 ticks Recorded a quick scalp at open today. Had it not been stopped out, the downtrend continued for +37 ticks!
6/9/21 -5 ticks The entry setup today was waiting for the first bar to close to give direction. It was a failed breakout so placed a sell stop limit order 1 tick below it. Unfortunately stopped out for a 5 tick loss, but was +12 ticks at one point Today is turning out to be a low volatility churn day. It's already been 2 hours since market open and the entire trading range is only 9 points.
6/10/21 +13 ticks Opening breakout setup Last day trading ES 06-21 6/11/21 First day trading new ES 09-21 No trade setups No opening breakout and no 1-2-3 reversal patterns
6/14/21 No setups today during the 1st hour. Had a sell stop limit order placed 5 minutes into open, hoping for the breakout the continue, but had to cancel the order when the 2nd bar didn't trigger it.
