Trying for 50k today

  1. Most of the time, when traders refer to how much they're making on this site, you need to divide by a factor of ten. Ten is about the amount of hyperbole that online forums cause people to use.

    There are few exceptions, but this is a general rule.

  2. I may change this plan if things don't start going my way

    Feels like the intraday swing players took the 5min OR short with their stops just above the 61.8% @ 1543.25. Is it stop time hunting before we fill the Gap...:)

  4. Looks good mymini, good luck with that. Could well see a squeeze higher with potentially many short calls still open. Good luck, keep us updated how the trade turns out.

    GT + good weekend.

    Triple witching is always good for opening only orders since any opening gaps typically retrace. Today appears to be no exception. If you are long on the ES, you are going against the probable path of least resistance. I'm sure Don Bright made a killing today.

    I happen to be short volatility today in the ES, so I have made about $500 bucks today - so far anyway.
