Had to scratch out of one today. Bummer!!! The one I had it ended being 20 instead of 10. HOLY COW!! Dunno WTF happened but it worked out. Man I hope I never make that mistake IRM. Then I reentered and it worked well. 2 nice trades in ZW and done. $3500 today on sim.. Had it been live $350 would have been a damn nice day for someone at my level I think. A few more months of this and I hope to go back to live trading. Charts are down there.

Lol,No dont take shorts if price is above the ma,dont take longs if the price is below the ma and dont take any trades if the ma is going right thru the middle of your candles,about 95% of your bad trades are on the wrong side of the ma...Sharky

TY Sharkey. I am actually just going to take it off my chart. Trade 3 I was trading it short from the top of the range I saw. 3-4 candles stalled at left. Just tried to get short higher up is all albeit the MA. I do get what you are saying though. Thanks for the input. ATR IS OFF ALSO btw.

Was having a hard time of it again this morning for a minute. Finally got it going and took out the losers I had and ended up 1337.50 green. I'd say that I was damn lucky vs. skilled today..LMAO
I took my 1st trade long in ZW this morning and before I could even make any adjustments my PT was hit. The candle was freakin kooky as you can see in the chart below. After that I just decided to stay out. I had taken out the 3 huge losers and had some gas money for the G5 left over. LOL

@PowerBroker

A friend of ours had her house blown apart by a tornado in Dexter (West of Ann Arbor), hope all is well with you.

Edit: She and her young teens (a boy & a girl) are in shock for sure, but NO injuries.

Tornado in Dexter may have been an F3 | The Detroit News | detroitnews.com

I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope they are all OK. I was on my way to play some music last night when that all went down.. It looked like the end of the world in the sky out that way. It really only sprinkled here it was crazy. The rains never got here. Strange how it all works ehhh?

Thanks for the thought.

It's 1045am and I am done for the week. Sort of a rough start in ES this morning. I was surprised they took it to 1400 today. I thought maybe next week. It's all good. Had a couple of losers before I got it going. I wanted short from the top of my range marked. I just was a litttttle to eager this morning. I killed it in ZW!! Today's take was $8050 on sim. Charts are down there.
Have a gr8t weekend for those of you who come here. PB
