Looking for long in $84.80 with a 10 cent stop. Lets see what happens.



9:34 Sup andrew, bob

9:35 Reminder: When I look to put an order in, that is my minimum best price, if I can get it cheaper I will try to do so.

9:37 Will consider shorts at $85.10, but I need some time to elapse before an order is placed there.

9:43 Stop set at 84.70 in case 84.80 is hit.

9:50 Short order set $85.10 stop $85.20

9:52 Short move locked, waiting for pullback, if any.




9:57 FILLED S $85.10 STP $85.20

10:06 Stop moved to 85.09 Considering longs at 84.80, if its a chop day, that's a good buy. Somewhat dangerous if it trends hard lower.

10:25 Chopped up -6 Waiting for calmdown.

10:27 Considering long at 84.87 stop -10 cents

Anyone got any ideas on resistance? I don't mess with exit analysis, but would be open to hear ideas.

Thanks.

10:11 Seems choppy guys.

10:13 My support zone for a long is $84.80 AKA my considered buy zone.

10:38 Tally for the day 2 trades -6 cents

10:45 Getting whopped -16 cents for the day. Gonna chill and wait for some signals.

10:56 Gotta know when to stand down..... This is one of those moments, at least for me

11:05 This is a pattern that was active last week on 2 separate days, both times, these longs ran for over $1 I have tried to short and now feel that I have missed the long from $84.76. I missed that signal, but I remember these kind of moves as being pretty strong up-trends. All Im saying is that I am done shorting for probably another 50 cents to $1 up.

11:23 L 85.11 STP 85.06

pullback long here.

out -5

Tally -21 for the day, pretty close to calling it a day. Rough to say the least! Had an 8 pt mishap on my DOM, I imagine guys have had worse though 21 is easy to clean, just gotta wait for a normal setup instead of pure chop.

Please tell me there is someone who is making something happen Anyone?

11:45 Looks like mfbreakout just scraped up a 30 cent move. Well done!

12:10 Today, valid entries from 8am to 9am, anyone who made decent money today did it then. I got setup at 9:10, late to the game today.

Alright.

Shitty tape today.

Goal for tomorrow.

1. Organize posts better

Overview of trading

1. A few trades too close to eachother, I consider that overtrading.
2. An 8 cent DOM f*ckup, coulda been worse.

Final count for the day. -21 cents.

Might take one more trade, will hold out till 2:30 - 3ish.

Thanks everyone for tuning in!
