Just checked ES still in a dowtrend.. TF follows ES..... if ES is to break this down move it needs to break & hold 1265.... so be carefull with the TF upward signs...

How many ticks you got stopped out for.... These days even a 3 point is a tight stop on a range day ... but it will kill you on a trend day ..... be carefull with your stops.. I already posted some stuff regarding this.... starting a few weeks ago the mkt was setting itself up for these days (widespread) cause it had to accommodate this debt ceiling stuff for more big guys to get involved.....
so be carefull... @kbit I know you will bounce right back..
Im looking for another setup...
