    1 ES pt is very possible. But really need patience through out the day.

  4. It is important to have the patience to hold on to moves that go 3, 6, 9, even 12 points or more.

    In terms of what IS possible, emphasis "IS", then 3-6times the high low.

    In your world, the highest a day is probably "-2 to 1.5points".
    With all due respect, It is not my intention to insult you, but just reading your questions, I get mine answered, you see.

    There's no point in "averaging" when you're SCT'ing, when the market offer X, you take X. If the market offer Y the other day, you take Y. It's that simple.

  6. Get lost, in the SCT world only hypothetical results exist.. :)

    I am interested in some figures from a REAL trader

  7. If you can average 2pts a day, as measured on a weekly basis, you can certainly say you have achieved mastery of the ES (for what it is worth).

    Good trading.

  10. There is no point in sharing #'s with people on here, other than to brag. The only way that revealing #'s will actual help is if the experienced trader sat down with the newb and went over every detail of every trade.

    Price moves up and down each and every day, seeing this should be all the proof you or anyone should need to know that money can be made from trading, in any market.
