This is why I often like to quit after the first trade.
Which is what I've should done today 🙄

the price level I took those long trades was crucial...
imo my long was valid, with a decent close stop
Then when I started to doubt myself... I made the mistake of hesitating and not shorting the break. Longs were definitely out of order after it broke clear of that level.
If we are going to see a rally, as a lot of people would like, tomorrow will be crucial.
Oh dear.............
I've awoken to find I have made money in my sleep...........seduced by cheap plonk from the lady next door ... well she offered me some wine and the next thing I knew it was 9.15pm my suit is full of wrinkles....... and she's not even here....
Life is Great...... 🙁
US could not even hold the one or two day counter trend...... !!
Edit: in case she's reading this ..... the wine was rather nice .... not cheap at all 😀

commiserations on that hit .. been there done that. I'm annoyed about missing this slide .all seems so easy in retrospect . short from anything over 13000 .. shoulda listened to Hook Shot
did not trade after 3pm uk time .. . and there's Hook Shot,, goes to sleep,, and wakes up richer .. there is no justice😆 .. only kidding hook shot .. that's the way to trade! .. I might start acting on your posts soon, that'll bring your success rate down ('cause the market tends to disobey my direct instructions)
Are you long overnight, Obi Wan?
fwiw this system closed out on 13/11 for 0.1. ....scratch trade
Hi, DC.
How did the coaching go, i was told you were trying your hand at coaching.
Who did you drive for? Was it a tour company anyone would know? Did you enjoy your time in Europe with a coach load of pensioners?
Maybe you can organise a T2W coach trip.
Regards,

No Man's Land..........?
I suppose I better give some credit to Atilla for having reached 750 ...😆
But the only obvious/high probability trade I can see is long - sometime this week........ that's my BIAS. I know some don't like the idea of traders having a bias but I'm declaring mine.....
Pattern of trend in my understanding says we remain in a fast move down i.e a continuation of the last couple of weeks or so.... How does this square with my long bias ? Well I think the smackdown will become over sold and we'll get a short covering rally......... I just don't know when this will be but I'm guessing it will be sometime this week.
In the meantime I'm .... well lets not say but without a failed rally tomorrow I can't short and going long is speculative given the pace of the downmove. Don't get me wrong I could go long and make money but I would be "really" gambling.... for my style anyway.
Bottom Line I've got to go fishing somewhere else... maybe fx or commods not sure yet..... The only other index option near term would be to see if Asian sesh exhausts the downside and starts to turn up ........ the fat boys* like hongkong and nikkei could be interesting if that happens.
*Not intending to sound politically incorrect ... but what I meant is they are "bloated" as far as points are concerned....
Apologies to anyone offended 😆

Thanking you kindly HookShot, but I did take my credits couple of days ago.
Must confess I have been much encouraged by your and DC's calls. Never like going against the legends on this site.
fwiw I'm now thinking we have double top. Major battle on going plus support lines drawn on the sand...
If it does break down than my next target would be 12000s...
If it rises than I still have it trying for 13500.
Today I've finished up but I could have done so much better. Despite having direction right didn't make the pips on the table. Funny the dark side drawing me thinking I lost money that wasn't mine... 😆 😈 😆
Well done 2 overnight longs !
I don't know whether this is THE one that ends the down move but will rely on my pattern of trend theory as a guide ... another brillo day in prospect...
I did not go long for reasons stated but I'm now back in the game with this mega rally overnight....... 😆 😆 😉
