ES Entries Exits Only

Recommended Posts

is it hard to understand why a thread like this

 

.... is the least likely to get any contributors ?

 

Including yourself???

 

:confused:

 

As I've learned around here, if you want to get something going, you better give it some reason to get going yourself.

 

So when YOU start posting, maybe others will follow.

.... only reason for cancel .... is that my entry target got hit..... approximately

... if it kept moving toward my 63.75 ... i would not cancel the entry....

 

.... in other words.... it came close and moved away.... so i missed the entry .....

.... if price did not move away .... then i would not cancel the entry.....

 

.... i wanted price to hit 63.75 ..... and move away .... i didn't want it to hit 63.25 and move away .....

... hope this makes some sense

 

Do you routinely cancel orders once they are approaching your initial entry point? Is this a common practice for you? Just curious to see when a trade might actually get filled. ;)

.... in other words... price action .... showed me that my entry was off.....

... slightly ....

 

.... because price moved off significantly once it hit 63.25

 

.... i don't want to cancel the entry unless price moves off .... without me.....

.... because by that time... the would-have-been trade is already half over.....

 

.... hopefully... i will be filled..... one day in the distant future
