    I enjoy reading your journal. I have 3 questions if you don't mind.
    Were you following the rules to your original setup?
    When you took today's 2 trades, what was the trin doing?
    Why did you have 2 separate open orders?

  2. No, I wasn't following the rules to my original set-up and I had mentioned that earlier when I posted the entries. It is basically similar set-up but at a larger time frame. I posted the set-up for people that are just starting out and would like to learn but do not want to risk a lot.

    The trin was above 1 but NQ TRIN was less than NY TRIN but I wasn't looking at the TRIN. I am looking at the previous day's high, low and close.

    I am buying the break of the support. 66.25 was the support from yesterday and 68.25 was the intra-day support.

  4. Ok this is it....no more trailing stops.

    There was 1 long entry at 9.06 cst based on the set-up from the 1st post. I was in class so I did not take the trade but that was good for 10 points.

  5. For anyone that trades overnight, I got a long signal at 76.50 with stop at 74.5...Target 84.5

    Currently the ask is 76.5....

  6. The support on the daily is broken and it is better to stay on the sidelines today.

  7. Even after the 2% decline NQ TRIN has been less than 1. If we find some support on 30-min...I might go long.

    Stopped out.

    Done for the week. Have a nice weekend.

    As long as I lose 1-2 pts. when I'm wrong and make 5-20 points when I'm right....I am fine.
