NQ had a great run today. Expecting it will continue North. Thank God I never listen to financial media or the prognosticators of War.
Good Morning mikeriley, You are the master of NQ day trader. Please kindly give me a strategy to make $50 or $100 a day trading NQ for 1 hour a day please. Thank you,
Hi there SimpleMeLike I've already given you that strategy in the form of a Game. You were instructed to play the Game in simulation mode until you were confident the strategy was viable for live trades. Use micro contracts. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/a-trading-game-for-fun.366818/
OK, test this one in Simulation mode until you're confident for Live trading. ( I know it works) Step #1 Open MNQ with a 30 minute chart. Step #2 Make sure you can see at least 5 days of price. Step #3 Every day determine High/Low range. Step #4 Range is absolute high and absolute low between 5:00pm to 5:00 am Eastern Step #5 Use horizontal lines to mark these two levels on your chart. Step #6 Buy or sell the first level that's breaks past 1 tick. Step #7 Stop loss is the price level on opposite side that was not broken. Step #8 Profit target is 100 ticks Yes I know, many times you'll have a WIDE stoploss. Just be patient and wait till move develops. Watching the chart every day will help you determine the best days to WAIT FOR IT. Some days you'll see when MNQ is developing a clear trend. When that's evident to you, look to take position early before it breaks any of your price levels. On such days you can ride the move for more than 100 ticks. Sometimes a lot more (200+) In time you'll know when to increase your contract size. (Goal is using Mini contracts instead of micro) Caution: ONLY use this with a 30 minute chart and ignore price action on lower time frames. If you use this with a lower time frame you'll end up pulling out too early when the move is barely under way. Lower times frames = Slot machine mentality. (Stay away from it) Once you win the trade, STOP TRADING. You only need 1 trade/day. This will protect your profits, build your confidence and your bank account. Patience is required. To your Trading Success.
