  1. Mrs. Shorty,

    It is not a question of right or wrong, if you have a trading plan (which you should) and did not get any setup's that you should have acted upon, then you took the appropriate position, which was flat.

    I went long 1 ES at 10:01 at 857.75 when it was 2 pts. in my favor I brought my STP to breakeven + .25 at 10:39 the market came back down to my entry and stopped me out.

    Was I wrong?

    I don't think so, I got my entry signal, I pulled the trigger, I had my STP in place and I got stopped out. That's what trading is all about.

    Where I went wrong was at 10:49 on a 233 tick chart their was divergence on stochs and CCI, I should have reentered but had not mentally let go of the prior trade.

    best of luck,

  2. Mental blockages can be tough at times, especially for discretionary trading, when you trade mechanically, it's a bit easier, I think.

  5. you can't handle a girl like Darien Shorty -- and you're certainly not going to pick her up in your '69 GTO!

    enough idle banter!

    green dog, over and out!
