Here's today's actual stats to help with the questions:
NUMBER OF TRADES: 29
GROSS ES PTS: 15.00
NET ES PTS: 13.6 (2.32 COMMISSION RATE)
WIN %: 67.8%
-------------------------
That's my numbers from the AM session.
Some might like that, some might not.
I am personally cool with that.
The key here is that I was extracting profits when there wasn't huge moves taking place. For example - I shorted 3 times near the open. Two of these produced profits. Take a look at your ES chart at the open - there's not much movement there for shorts, right? Well, taking 1.25 twice and one loss of .75 yielded profits. Going for a larger profit and that would have been a full loss. I prefer to make money.
