A day for instinctive trading? Mombassa had the right idea. Get the bull by the horns at the open and go short with the triple top rolling over from yesterday.The pullback to 66 showed RSI ratio of 0.5 and the following drop was 1:1 Both should have kept you in the trade, whilst keeping an eye on the action around 32. I said earlier in the day that the 1 min ES looked bottomed. Turns out it wasn't.... and you could have been forgiven ( as Mom did) for taking a long at one of the 32 breaks. Right idea, market wasn't ready. The lower low on ES gave good confirmation of a real bottom by way of volume divergence. Guess I should have waited for confirmation..... Still, nice to see Mom getting in at the low and heading for a good run..... I wonder if he held till the close or got out at 19:30? 10/10 if you held for the 3rd long nd peak.
Not much else for the rest of the session, save the target for the small triangle, and the extended 3pk nd top. If you got out at 19:30, that still gave a nice lot of points, with the opportunity to go back in on the 64/100MA bounce. :cheesy: 100- 140 points on the table today.
PS Mom- you should post your wrong trades, not so we can have a laugh, but so that others can see the real traps you encountered... Sometimes 32/64 can provide great opportunities, sometimes not, as today on the 32.
