Today was an ok day. I was not able to enter without hesitation and I was also not able to hold my trades to completion but I did better than I have on average with these things. I began the day...

Today I came in bullish. Yesterday we broke out of a balance day's range at the bottom of the bigger bracket we're in (6.50 to 10.50) - when a market breaks out of balance from the bottom of a...

day 7

Today I came in bearish, thinking that we were going to test the lows of our current bracket (6.80 to 8.80) before we tested the highs. I still thought that failed breakout above 109 was going to...
