Trades from 7/9/2012

NQ for 6/27/2012

Hi John,

You're absolutely right that the 15m charts were a little bit tricky yesterday, and it's a very good rule to be cautious or even refrain when things are not as clear as you personally...

Why position sizing matters

Just for fun, I have recently decided to begin keeping a record of following just the "standard" MTPredictor setups in the 3m NQ, very similar to what John has been doing with the 3m YM.
