Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

  1. I think I got the LRE, but best to not be too greedy at these levels. :)

  2. Added one and tightened my stop. It works or it doesn't. :)

    be careful..this could fall quickly here to test the 4337

    your stop might be in a dangerous place..but going long here is dangerous anyway in my opinion..but i could of course be totally wrong !

  7. I'm not too crazy about a long from this area myself as we could easily see either a shallow pullback, a medium size pullback or a deeper one from this zone. Big picture it's my view we're a bit overextended to the upside, but I'm still bullish for July meaning I'll buy a pullback.

    That's why I'm not interested in using a wider stop at this point in time, but it's still worth risking one point to gain 10,50 points, IMO. :)

  8. Well, I've had plenty of bad luck. Gotta have some good luck once in a while too. :)

    yes..but tight stops can easily ruin a trade with the ES..i know too well..which is why i don't use them.. however..as you said..

    time will tell :)
