  2. ES seemed very tradeable throughout the RTH session.
    Ideal for Price action/inflection trading systems...
    Nice runs and reversal points. A few fast and deep drops and pops checking up nicely. The closing nose dive was an added bonus... if you were on the right side.

    All played out great in theory except the overall session exceeded our maximum trading range forcing us to the side lines early to observe what could have been for the majority of the action.

    Easy to chime in and push your perspective when you have no skin in the game. As easily as the above statements were made to indicate positive price action in hind sight... We were forced to the sidelines for a reason.

    Last few weeks have really tested discipline and temptation to override and interfere with trading system. Historically there had been less than 20 sessions with over 60 points of swing.
