ES short 1378.50 stop 1380.50

[86834 10]

No i didn't take 76.50 because we pretty much opened there. Don't really like it when that happens. When the market opens right at the price i want, i'll look for the first level of support or resistence (VAH/L) / (volume) respectively.

... But how long will it stay down?

 

 

who knows but this whole last week looks very toppy

 

My expectation if that we will trade with $130 as a ceiling...rather than a floor for a while...

 

PS down to $129 now...

[Foale 10]

Dax recovered all this ams losses...

I would rather be long Dow at the moment.

[86834 10]

stopped. Will wait for the initial balance to form now to launch my next trade off.

[firewalker 10]

Trading over the news not bother you FW ?

The way I see it the odds that it will go up on news or down on news are 50/50...

 

So, over the long run, if I'm in a position and stay in the the trade, I will be stopped out sometimes, but I will have trades that continue in the favourable direction as well. I prefer to move my stop to breakeven before the news though (like on last Friday I think that was the case and I was in before the news, actually very similar like today).

DOW short 12520, stop 12535.

 

Wish I'd waited a bit longer, but still hanging in, thanks to this week's wider stop strategy!

doesn't look like much selling tho...

[firewalker 10]

 

what's the potential of that trade in your opinion?

 

looks to me like price is just taking a pause after that sharp run-up, but I can't see it reversing just yet
