803 not one of my#'s took the heat dont like it when fully loaded.....out @ 4ticks.... taking the heat just gave me that weird feel in my tummy.. which i forgot a few months ago.. maybe i didnt trade for a few days & its coming back... I need a few good days to avoid that same feeling....
Thanks
Bugs... Not done yet will wait for another setup...
I trade less contracts too on setups I am not 100% sure of...If it's a turd it won't be that bad and if it's good at least you get something

scalping entries
TF 804.5 holds 807.5 is inevitable
6E 4285 holds 4305 gets hit
ES 1307 holds 1311 gets hit
CL 97.50 holds 97.95 & possible 98.30

Just thought I would post an observation....Have you noticed that for instance in a uptrend if price goes 10 ticks past your #s it is likely to keep going and when less than 10 (often it is 9 ticks) it is likely to go back and test the previous number. I guess I'm mentioning it because we are in that situation right now....Any comments Bugs

Except for the 6E (which is still hanging) everything got hit.. I like the way the TF & CL reacted to them... it would have been better if CL 98.30 got hit.. but as i already said it was possible not sure.....
Thanks
Bugs
P.S (I bought 805 missed by 5 ticks from my entry & exited @ 807.5 as i said would get hit......)

Yeah keep an eye on it...it's probably not chiseled in stone but just something I picked up on...I was wondering if it was something that bugs may have noticed as well.
