Not bad! Well don't let me influence you at all, I just posted a minute ago without seeing your position. Doesn't look like it will squeeze quickly to the upside, may take some time... I'm still long, would like to buy more lower...if given the ...

At the moment right now, the transactions of 20+ contracts are mostly buying, and I believe they are passive/at limit buying since delta is negative still. So at some point this will turn, but maybe not right away. A good day to buy small, slowly, ...

It's good you can see your own flaw. You'll come back from it. I did something silly...Went long from 3am, very small position, no stop loss lol. Only survived because position is tiny. Well it eventually came into profit by the time I got up for US ...

This was today's chart. I marked with arrows around 13:00 when my market buy volume was being hit. Around 46 contracts were bought, and several other chunks of 20-30 lots in single transactions. It was rather sneaky and I had my doubts about it ...

Well today kinda sucked. I traded well, came out in the green nicely, but I wasn't aggressive enough to add to my long around lunch hour. I watched the buying ramp up and just stayed in my long without adding to it. Oh well. It was really easy ...

Cool did you make that meme yourself? Online meme generator maybe? This is usually true I still scalp a lot, but definitely more prep as I am on a small account right now trying to challenge myself to exponentially run ...

I've been in "stealth" trading mode myself. Taking mini breaks as well, trading a little less and working on "new" ideas if you can call it that. I'm using some of my profits to fund a - "small account challenge" on the side, started with $100 and ...

Sometimes those wild pit traders have some real gold nuggets of information. I'm going short right now pre-open, hopefully I won't regret it! What's your take? I figure we are inching up to big R on the 30 min chart and I expect at least a temporary ...

Indeed it was a good start to this week so far! During the day that $300+ from the night session went up and down but ended at $450. Now I'm scalping this move which I guess was linked to china trade news...+$215 ish. The day session today was all ...

Thank you my German brother. The weekend was great. We grilled some cheap food like fish, hotdogs, etc. Each Friday we drink beers in the sunshine! On a good week we drink beer, on a bad day, we still drink beer! Try the Micro ...

Earned some Sunday-Funday profit. Good way to start the week nice and green. I knew the short side wouldn't work after the gap was filled and price pushed above and through that level around 25,500. Initially I was looking for a gap-fill and ...

I was in sync with the market this morning. 45 mins in and I was done. It's Friday, time to take a load off and relax & enjoy the day!

Those houses look like old castles, cool I like it. Looks peaceful. Today was a rangey day, good day for being outside. I did good today but quickly ended my day in profit very early, maybe around 930am I wash finished. Around 9:18am the price ...

That's right! I would venture to say more for our success if we remain profitable by trading alongside the largest participants.

I found some juicy information from the CFTC... Here's a snapshot... Time length of median resting time of limit orders. Index futures are the fastest. Orders are never resting for long! IE: High levels of spoofing in our little Dow futures.

Oh I know what you mean by not really feeling like trading... I could not get myself to pull the trigger on any afternoon trades. This trade range is pretty solid thus far, fake break at 25,983 at the lows. A slow move down is possible I'm sure.

I've been flat since 10am now. Drastically better day today. I see a possible long setting up right now. Range I'm watching is 26,000 to 26,300 If I've missed it oh well, probably won't take a late trade at this point, but I'll consider buying a ...

Hehe, hot air for hot air balloons Just cleared off my shorts, waiting for re-entry spot. Market fell a bit fast there.

DOW Futures

I will watch that! I love free materials lol. I would agree for the most part that an edge comes first, but I think for a discretionary trader, mastering one's own psychology might be considered an edge itself, nearly. Someone out there said almost ...

Oh that meme is just perfect. I'll have to print it off. Today wasn't "hard" but I made it hard on myself. Came out in the green. Let the market prove your position first. Then add to it, and/or continue to scalp that direction heavily. A guy I ...
