I was thinking I would trade it overnight and then when I wake up see what happens. If there is a major news event (planned), I will either be up...
I was thinking that I would use 2 contracts. Targets would be 5 and 10. If the first target is hit, I would move the stop to breakeven.
Still papertrading that strategy. I did get a short off at 1292.50 but didn't post it live...
Stopped out this morning, looking for a reentry.
I know that Volente supports this methodology but I haven't factored it in at all.
I see what you are saying now (along with Pekelo and NoN). I admit to human error on this one. I've been thinking more about this today and...
I'm going to put out a small short here. Good risk/reward area. Short 1278. Stop 1286 Target 1251 I see 200 EMA on the 240 chart right...
This trade was stopped out, -3.25. Results so far 7 of 17 +34.25

I think this is the next evolution of the journal. Perhaps I will trade with real money shortly. I might use my backup futures account (Infinity...
Looks like we just missed that short entry by a tick. :( No entries long overnight as we did make some new reaction highs. I'm using the...
Wonderful! I'm glad this journal is going so well.
Thanks Billy! As far as reaction highs and lows it is a bit subjective as I'm learning. One I use the 5min chart, that way I can see the...
I try to post in advance but I was working on a few other things here and wasn't watching the market. Sorry. Yea I would have the short ready at...
Just touched my stop :( flat now. ps. Don't you know Regal/blackguard is Volente's alter ego (at least that's my guess based on past posting...
Market got our stop. -3.25 (.25 is for commision and slippage) Journal results 7 of 16 +37.50 total points
