Trade for 7/30/09

Posted 07-30-2009 at 12:21 PM by That One Guy

Waited around, after missing the overnight pull back. As stated trend never really broke from higher high/higher low pattern. I saw and tried to get involved in this....






I waited around as saw a new balance area forming. Once there was a breakout, I waited for a pull back......

Trades for 7/29

Well after the market opened, I waited for some clear direction before blindly entering. Nq traded down to the mid point of the lower balance range I outlined before open. Just like before buyers took control here and we saw an imbalance back up. I waited for a pull back to get long and did just that. At 1592.25 with a stop 1590.75. I was stopped out quickly for a 1.5 point hit.

One more trade

Going to try one more trade here, the pull back into the 90-93 zone, which was rotation off the open. It resulted in a push up and failure at 1600 area. After it has failed after the 1600 failure, seems only proper to try a short. However, I have to keep in mind, the stopping point near the lower extreme of yesterdays trading. Currently short 1591.75 stop at 93.75 Tgt looking for a break down to the bigger time frame area of 1575.



Update

Owned yet again...

Broke 1590 pushed down to the lower short term extreme from yesterday, tried to short around 1590. Took another hit for 1.5 points. This journal will definitely outline the consistency in my losing

Tried a short

As stated earlier, I zoomed in to find some short term areas to play. I saw rotation from 1597-1600, so I waited for a pull back and a trigger to short. However, stopped out on news shakeout for 2.5 points. Oh well, I would be looking to BE now at this 1590 area, but the lower high at 1600 area makes me question bulls. Past 1590 full rotation down to 1575 possible in play
