So in essence, I have created several different chart for the sole purpose of placing indicators on them by their session times and I pull them to my main trading chart. I do not use those other charts for any reason other than that.

Interesting trick. Might try something like it.

Thanks.

Been about the same for past 3-4 weeks.... Was 70% last week and I think 73% this week. I have been averaging between 60-75% in last 6 weeks.

I have demonstrated some level of consistency trading ES, but have left a lot of money on the table since I am only trading one contract and cannot have a runner.


I looked at some other charts this weekend and decided today I would trade same method using 800T chart on NQ. The advantage lies in being able to trade 2 contracts and have a runner with a better risk profile(in $) than trading with 1 contract ES..

So today I traded same method on NQ. Did not post a chart today because this thread started about ES...

Well, hope you are able to have similar success tomorrow. I've also felt like a runner is needed for ES but then I have to cut my stops in half and frequently get stopped out.

I hope you keep posting your NQ charts here. I'd like to know how your ES methodology compares to NQ in terms of entry points.

thanks.
