I think I'm the one who should be applying for a job at your LLC Very good trading! Your patience paid off big time today. And I hate myself even more after seeing that huge drop! As you know, I was short @ 1140.50 more than a couple of times and bailed with a tick or two each time. I just wasn't sure when this would drop. I should have re-entered short at 1140.50, but that's what seperates newbies like me and the PROS Again, congrats on an awesome day! -Fast
Thx for the compliment man! Not bad for a dude that havent slept since 1PM Sunday, who worked from 2PM SUN - 7AM MON. The R/R was there FAST at 1140.
I wouldnt say nervous... My b/e for the day was 1140 and a couple of more pts against me I was still very comfortable with. Anyways... today was a damn sweet ass day..
February 2nd (Monday) Total trades: 5 (1 Long, 4 Shorts) 4 Winners, 0 Losers, 1 Scratch Time Zone: Central (Chicago time) 8:43 AM - Short 1 ES 1133.00 8:45 AM - Cover 1 ES 1132.50 Result: +0.50 8:54 AM - Short 1 ES 1133.25 8:57 AM - Cover 1 ES 1133.25 Result: 0 9:24 AM - Long 1 ES 1129.00 9:27 AM - Exit 1 ES 1130.00 Result: +1.00 12:56 PM - Short 1 ES 1140.50 1:02 PM - Cover 1 ES 1140.25 Result: +0.25 1:52 PM - Short 1 ES 1140.50 1:55 PM - Cover 1 ES 1140.25 Result: +0.25 Notes: Should've held on for a little longer. I could've actually re-entered short at the same price, but just didn't pull the trigger. Just stared at the screens while ES dropped... Overall: ES: +2.00 (Just need to average 2 pts a day for a +200% yearly return )
Hmmm.... 2 pts a day = $100 X 5 days a week = $500 a week. $500 a week X 52 weeks = $26 K. Your account is $13 K....
