May 23, 2023: MES Trade 2
Trying out my new TL. It was the first flush, which I noticed that it works best. I got impatient and got only one point out of the trade. I still think we continue higher...

MES Trade 3 and 4
I tried long once with a stop, then again around the lows with a small gain. I still think higher, but my timing is off today. I am still down for the day.

I ended up with a daily loss yesterday. I kept trying to go long and added. I still have some long, and may exit all later this morning.
I will not take any new trades today.

Long bias again today, this time TSLA/MSFT/AAPL are helping. I will try to hold for bigger targets/stops on this long.

MES Chart update:
On my Laptop today and I did not daytrade, I just put a long with a wide stop and help. But, I am glad I did not daytrade. It would have been a challenging day. Still strong bullish bias....
