Wow!! Very nice trading, bathrobe. May I ask in general terms what your trades were? After the great ES entry @ 1083, did you ride the entire position all the way to the exit or did u trade around?


Btw, I have been reading this thread from the start and it has been real instructive for a n00b like me. So thanks all for sharing.

No, I exited at resistance, I did not hold for the day.

I doubt thta this will change but fortunately there are successful people around who are willing to share their wisdom and experience.
One just has to spend time and find those people and read their posts and practice, practice and practice more.


I am not where I want to be (prefectionist, you know ) but I am very close.
I like to call trading THE NEXT NUT THAT I HAVE TO CRACK.

Take care

Gabe, thanks very much for sharing your journey and the lessons you learnt. It's very kind of you to save us newbies the pain (and money!) of learning the hard way. Pleased to hear you've cracked it and are looking to perfect it - congratulations! And assuring to know that if we apply ourselves, we may one day crack it too

There's much we're learning from you, brownsfan, chris, thales (just to name a few). Thanks to you chaps for being generous with your time and tips. I see you're on Thales's thread "reading charts in real time" and will be following both this thread and that with avid interest.

Kicking myself furiously for not buying the Dec brent after the Nov expired How long before i learn not to be a twit??
