The anticipated breakout happened, captured only a small fraction in another account:

Hi Folks,

Are you anticipating a large downmove in the 6E today?

The upside breakout has failed multiple times now...

The short answer is to watch out for other shorting opportunities that present low risk.

The long answer is:

I am currently trying to control myself in two ways:

1. Trying to control the mild frustration of only capturing 10% of the total down move in my DarwinEx strategy and NEGLIGIBLE in my NinjaTrader account!

2. Trying to stay in the same neutral mental position and not lose my balance or get into my Ego's shoes. Seperation of me from my trading. Observation as the key, not tying oneself to action.

I believe there will be multiple block breaks now that the downtrend is underway which will offer multiple opportunities to enter with minimal risk so staying out at other points is advisable for my own safety (avoid tilt).

Keep getting shadowy hunches in dreams etc that the equities are headed for the roof like the dot com bubble.

Dilemma....


No basis, not yet.

Any 6E short probably will not reach even scalping targets now because everybody who was short is short and that must mean that the only direction for 6E is now up.


Any time now.

This prattle is perhaps coming from the Ego. All trend continue because lot of traders keep reading themselves over and over 'spotting' trend reversals...

Just thinking it loud. In inaction I now seek refuge!
