I'd like to become a better trader

Haven't you read enough of other people's stuff already? Be your own guru.

 

This has nothing to do with guru stuff. Do you want to differentiate yourself from the rest of the pack or not?

Kaizen is a quality technique. It's been addressed in several other threads.

Not looking to be different, just consistently profitable. Sadly, consistently profitable would seem to differentiate one from the majority of the pack.

 

that's my point. I think you might need a little sleep?

 

long 3@17.75 for a gap fill
closed at break even, I felt I was rushing into the trade and didn't wait for my set up.

 

NQ and YM filled the gap, ES hasn't. It's stuck at PP.
I don't need to try to anticipate market's movement. I need to wait for a clear signal.

 

long 3 again @18, stop @17
we have 1-2-3 buy and $tick has improved.
Also NQ and YM are strong and are leading to the upside.

 

YN just made new high, should drag es to gap fill.
moving stop to b/e

 

Very narrow OR today, only 2.25 points. Need to figure out the statistical implications of this.

Ndx is positive as well now.

 

out @19, Dow is back into negative , es back into OR.

sell 3 @18.75, stop 19.75
