In the morning I was expecting the gap to be filled at least halfway, so I closed the shorts way too early, 32 points gain. Then I had to go out, and when I came back it was way too down to reshort. And there came the rally of 40 points providing the opportunity to reshort and I did using the Bollinger and caught another 22 points. So 2 trades 54 points gains, not bad but I am not statisfied, I pulled the gun too early in the morning. I need that fat lady to sit on my hands....
that paper trading is so stressful for some........ stupid system was 100% for many trades today..........buzz and pekky........and i am even improving on that....just hurts my ears when it screams BUY SELL........or does it? I guess there is no gamble involved and no stop needed if 100%......... any advice appreciated?
Bast%$ds squeezed the shorts into the close then upon reopening gap down and run. Yeah they stole my friggin' profits. Good job bandits
I was shorting upticks all day got caught in the squeeze closed out flat, then kaboom after hours tankarooney. Gotta love the game!!!
Right duard, I love how 'they' (I hate using that term) pegged the futs right into the :15 AH close, all new shorts squeezed out for the day - it was hard holding on but glad I did, nothing like a -8pt gap open on the ES.
Yes but overnight margin call suggested otherwise. I had loaded the boat. The payoff would have been--- nice. Good luck to you and excellent job on the short and hold.
