TICK lows on the Russell TICK, not NYSE

Here is a video showing how we broke afternoon support and I shorted the breakdown, and then covered at breakeven because I thought we were reversing in no mans land. What I wasn't watching was the Russell TICK. It had made fresh lows when I shorted. That's a perfect entry! Hopefully someone can learn from my mistakes.

I did end up getting in and taking 2 points, though.

Very nice! I really do appreciate you guys making these videos. I'm learning little by little. When you explain things it seems so clear. Then when I'm looking at my computer by myself, I feel unsure.

Didn't know there was a Russell 2000 Tick.

What is the symbol you use in your platform?
