I guess hindsight would tell I should have taken this. I was obviously watching the EJ, especially because of Thales's post, but I thought it had maybe fizzled out and wasn't looking ideal.

Tentative NQ Long. I may be chasing ghosts given the fast and furious move down?

But, I think we may be extended a bit, and currently waiting for a HL to be put in place. There were other possible entries but the stops where too large. So this picture may change if price doesn't break through the 2 point shortly.

Woohoo!

I traded a little bit smaller size on this. All my charts were falling and I was getting long. We had printed a lower-low. I just felt like it wasn't the highest probability trade. I guess live and learn...

My daughter took it in her account, and she had logged in on her computer. She got lucky, because I was wrapped up in other things, and had we logged her in on my work station, I probably would have taken her out (don't worry - she is in school - her order was filled before 8 AM so she went to school with an open trade).

By the way, I am not trading my own little micro yet. Probably in a day or so. I am trying to decide on whether I will trade it cowboy style (5%/trade risk), rodeo clown cowboy style, or super crazy rodeo clown style. Hwever, when I do start trading it, I plan on trading it more like jonbig style and sit on my hands rather than play with my stops while in the trade. It is, after all, an exercise in position sizing more than anything else.

For now, I am trading 6E, 6B, 6J for my own account, and I am long the 6E at 1.4528, which is the same opportunity you showed in your EURUSD post.

Best Wishes,

Thales
