Breakeven week. Nothing exciting in terms of my trades. Short bias this week which worked early on but gave up the profit on Friday's surprising bullish move. I did try tp push my size to 3 with...

My short from last week was covered @ 4175 for a measly 15 points after 4 days. Boring to sit on the sidelines and not worth it. I can rule out swing trading choice for now:)

Back to day-trading...

Short 4190.

I did jump the gun, but only by few points. My EMA crossover is not sell signal yet but it looked plump and juicy to short. I have been wrong several times when I did this but I'm ok...

May 18 2023 Prep.

Despite having a long bias, I ended up with a losing day.

Long 4131.

Theme is gap closure. Expecting another choppy day and hence fading the moves.

Somewhat risky trade as it's against the trend and can easily test 4100. Hence I'm using hard stop @ 25...

May 17 2023 Wednesday

My stats are mixed today. Once again, price moved back above 20 DMA overnight, after closing below it yesterday. This sort of setup makes my stats unreliable. Hence, I will...

Hope you were able to hold on to your winner. The reversal from YM 34450 (ES 4155) was pretty swift. However, once the 34300 mark was taken out, to shake off weak longs, it's clear that slow grind up...

Though I started the day with a bearish bias, my limit order @ 4150 was NOT filled. Once ONL was tested, my bias flipped to bullish as the risk reward became favourable for longs.
