Cunparis- how is your time zone related to EST.
are you in GMT+1?

Beth - did you say you trade 1 ct and target is 12 ticks?
if trading 2nd target, for 16 ticks, when do you pull trigger BE+1 after how many ticks?

Yes Emini Holy Grail, they are all 1-contract trades with PT/SL @12 and 25 respectively. Use the entry bar (yellow inside bar) to determine SL adjustment when the trade does not look good anymore.

Jeff is trading 2 contracts with PTs @8 and 16 (2nd contract has BE+1 @8 ticks I believe). Jeff, will you please confirm to Emini Holy Grail if I get your trade management strategies wrong. Thank you.

This LIVE Real-time video of my trade taken @ 8:15pm(GMT+1), is normally posted to my Diary thread; but I want to share it with THREE SET UPS thread viewers. This is the second trade I made after the one in my post #317.

Is this a combination of INSIDE BAR and OUTSIDE BAR ?

Lolu

A Long profitable trade to end the day. $200 before commission.

Note:

1. In real life, I seldom trade in the afternoon based on my former "losing" trading experience.

2. High/Low for the Yellow inside bars have been shifted to their subsequent bars because I was running the Inside Bar strategies.

3. Bracket orders for the Long trade back to normal in the afternoon though I had to cancel the Sell Stop order manually.

Can you help me understand the first trade you show (+120 long; -160 short) were you trading the outside bar (in blue) or the inside bar (in yellow) for these 2 trades?

Well..........-2 for the day.......very frustrating.........it was a bad start for CL as it was gyrating at the open of the indexes........a stop out and the stop and reverse stopped out.........but.......opened my targets and made it back (well except for 2 ticks)

The second to last trade was more of a Ross Hook deal......it hit my extended target of +16 but did not fill me....so I closed the trade at +8+8......of course then it made a new low.......

I'm just happy today did not end up being a big loser.......with such a terrible start.......I try to put both winners and losers behind me and just look for my next set up........I know my edge will work......I just have to let it.
