After yesterday's down move on the dow ( which I had an entry short at 250 but did not take due to a 20 pip stop - fairly large - actually let me delve on this point. I am a reversal trader primarily, my signals cater for both reversals and cont trades but i prefer reversals as the inital thrust up can be...
