The more you babble, the more you display your ignorance. People don't trade the ES because it is "cleaner". Market like the NQ, CD and AUD offer cleaner patterns with wider relative range. People trade the ES because it can accommodate size. And BTW, using a 610 tick chart to trade the ES is like trying to row upstream with spoons. It would be impossible for you to have a dialogue with "real professional traders" because you have no fucking clue what one looks like.
Exactly. High capacity markets constantly back and fill. Look at a 1 minute chart of ES compared to a stock that averages a million shares a day. Why deal with that aggravation unless you're capacity constrained.
You all show your limited knowledge unknown to yourselves. The one trade is to demonstrate to others that you actually trade, and are not just like @Handle123 with his fantasy stories. Cleaner charts has a specific meaning to those in the know, but as you are all not in the know, then I do not expect you to know and you will more than likely never know, due to nothing but your ignorance and bad manners.
My 20,000 hour/10 year learning curve could be taught to you within months. More variables and conditions involved than just posting a screenshot or broker report. What kind of reward (personal or monetary) is gained for disclosing proprietary research to some diarrhea spewing assclown on ET?
Tough day, shhhhhh. Time for coffee. Trading is a practice game, more practice you do, more you get to see the outcome, you make changes like how much to risk, what other patterns are used to IGNORE other signals, how much to target. Always best to by oneself, this way you understand it yourself. I nearly always get in on lower closes in uptrend, nearly always use slope of 18sma for trend, just make it simple, too old to remember complicated entries. I always use time stops to get to better than break in stops. Great Weekend All
That chart posted by @Handle123 does not contain any live trades, nor does it look like a chart that someone with a team of programmers and traders would use. It is, in fact, a bog standard chart based on text book rubbish, and the text that is printed on it is as much use as a condom with a pin hole in the centre.
