  1. I miss the morning open trade at 1305.50 and kinda of throw me off after watching it worked out... which leads to poor entry at 1304.75. I have to be less compulsive (worry about missing actions) for any chance of survival. :(

    I am done for the day because I don't feel good trading.

    Good luck everybody.

  5. I don't really look at the range other than taking profits but I am not in any better position. I think the ES reverses quite a lot and that the reversal traders acts like piggy banks to hold onto the money once they have been conditioned enough, the big move (strong hands) will take back all the chicken money. This is quite a challenge.
