Long YM 12922, stop 12900.

 

Figures seems to have been improving, while expectation has remained the same. Very small position, bit of a gamble.

 

Trading around news.... Not too clever......:doh:

Long YM 12922, stop 12900.

 

BTW, I moved my stop to 895 when the data came out as I wanted to hold the position till market opens.

 

:boxing: I love the icons here~~

out for a small loss -15.

[Taz 10]

DAX Short 52 stop 58

[firewalker 10]

DOW short 12890, stop 910.

I might have been a bit hasty on the first entry, especially since it was before news, often creates a shake-out of some kind.

DAX Short 52 stop 58

 

Half out 43; stop on remainder to break even.

Second half out @ 47.

 

9 + 5 = 14 (7 full points)

nasty range and nasty overlapping bars. only entry so far would have been 900 short but she went too quick.

stopped myself out manually at 900 for -10.

This action obviously invalidates my short.

[firewalker 10]

DOW short 12920, stop 935. Final trade.

[smbtnt 10]

The move up has been very weak, timing this short is going to be tricky, I am in 920 stop 940

Out at 910 for +10. Standing aside, neutral position. Might re-enter, but for the time being I'm not seeing any selling pressure.

I think NOW we have some selling, so I'm back in at 12915.

I'd rather step out and re-enter when the signal is confirmed.

 

Just realized that my "bias" towards the short side today influenced my decision to take an early short, which was not really warranted. :crap:

 

Well done on the patience SMB. Definitely something I still need to work on.

Good entry by the looks of it smbtnt!

 

For me the upmove was primarily 'odd' because it required huge volume. I mean, lots of effort, but little result... usually a bad sign.

 

Anyway, only moved a couple of points yet.

[Foale 10]

Its very trecherous... Rally being sold into...

 

I suspect all will be come clear later on...

Moved stop to b/e, if she takes me out then it's either noise or the wrong trade, 2 things I can do nothing about.

 

ps- scaled out at 895 for 25, rest at 911. Next target LOD

[smbtnt 10]

Now we have a range 930 - 860. I am expecting a breakout, either way, though the lower low 60 min 14.00 bar suggests a breakdown. Plenty more left in this, a day of great patience is required.

looks like a move up to take out stops is imminent - I have taken everything off at 895. Will wait for a better setup. Would have preferred 870 ish for a long.
