That is exactly my point, countertrend is fine, great even, but so much risk (counter-trend) for so little reward (2 points). Daniel
If you trade multiple contracts then the risk is bigger too, don't see your logic. Heck, with multiple positions, why not scale out and adjust risk. Daniel

I don't trade risk. I trade order flow. The ES is one of the most efficient/liquid contracts in the world! I developed this system (one amoung many) to take advantage of this fact. The strategy has not changed in over 9 years! I developed the method back in my stock broker days. the guys on the trading floor hated it.
