Who is going SHORT or LONG into the election tomorrow?

  1. We only traded down to the 980 level so I took profits at 984.00 on the rebound for +10 pts. I will look for signals to sell the retest of our AH session highs....sure would like to see 1000 get tagged out today.....come on ES.

  3. Well 1000 is a psychological level at this point and it would be a good inventory grab area above the previous AH session high......a better area then to SELL for an intraday trade (after a previous high retest).

    BTW, I just had ES sells trigger at 1000.50 :) .....got em!

  6. Covered all my 1000.50 entries at 1000.00 and covered 33% of my 1003.50 entries at 1000.00......holding the rest for any additional selling.

  7. Are these shorts for you intraday trading? i know earlier in the thread you mentioned building a position above the 1000 level looking for a multiday position trade.

  9. Correct....ES are my intraday trades and the Rydex positions are for longer term trades. 993.50 will be my next intraday ES profit target to cover 17% of my position if we trade there.

  10. Sold additional ES at 1004.50 to bring my trade back to full position size at original 1003.50 entry (added the 33% quantity back to the position).
