what is cpl? 2207.75 will be a brick and 2207.25 is a 20 period ma

Sorry I abbreviate a lot of words - a couple.

07 is good PA long for me (demand area) so am trying to scalp off of that, take one off add back on at 08ish.

Just wanted to state that i would like to post on the new main ES thread more often:



.....but i dont have the confidence to post regularly my entries on someones elses thread, esp as I am in a big WIP period.

Its pining for Inlet.

I will post some more OTF stuff on it, and also some day preview stuff, just been too busy with other stuff.

Great short squeeze play - just lost half my day.

Fight the trend at eod not good perhaps....despite great setups, everything in alignment.

My rr needs otbe sorted, so i am not risking half the days profits, at same time i am consistently losing money with tight stops.

Finding a balance.

Flat, pulled some back, beat yesterday, so some positives. Let me guess eth pulls back to 2205?

Will review todays trades, tmrw.

Will have to be very strict with size in December, low volume and possibly some very odd PA, when trading with hard stops means some expensive trade entries at roughly the same level.



Tomorrows another day.

Bye everyone.

good luck.

I hate fading near ATHs, it hardly ever works out for me as per today, was v gd trade setup/tick div, levels etc, then went onside nicely, LLs, added then boom. I bet those algos loved it, if only they cld feel emotion.....oh thats why they do well.

Not saying yours wont work out btw.
