1 trade, missed the damn reversal by a whisker. Didn't expect it to come that quick, what a move! Have a good weekend guys & gals. image

Nice

Thanks, but no different. Looks like I'll have to bite the bullet & get off the micro's. Crap, I've been doing this long enough should be no problem. Just hope it doesn't affect the psyche... Do you count the 'pause' bar '_' as a bar in the 2 bar ...

There is a difference in 2 bar pullbacks on the Micro vs the YM in the first 2 verticals. image image image

Managed to get one in earlier. Slow start to the month for me. image

Happy New Year Here's to a profitable 2021

+10, came late & hesitated over a nice triple bottom. Holiday time & it kind of dried up after that for me. Not traded for a while, probably won't begin until new year, missus keeps wanting me to go out for long lunches! image

Merry Christmas guys, thanks for all of the contributions. And lets raise a glass to absent friends, for without them this particular part of the universe wouldn't have been possible.

Hey Cap, what study are you using to get those levels on your charts - High, low open?

Thanks for the tip, I got it. Wait for it to trend...

I quickly backtested the weekend with really good results & then I had a bad day because the market got congested & I couldn't see the signals leading up to it. Personally, I think a good system, just exercise caution. But what a good soul eh? ...

On holiday & laptop battery shorted. Looks like I'm a casual observer for the next week, which frankly will be like going into rehab. Be interested to see how mortals cope with the range bar idea.

+15 missed two good ones through indecision. Have a good weekend all. image

Thanks for the insight, all I know is if I can stay out of being sucked into a range it keeps me emotionally in check. I will read up and further my knowledge on orderflow though.

I thought this pertinent. Not that I'm advocating (or encouraging) anyone to go off & engage in reading another book or course, but this is a quote that can help remember what is so easily forgotten. image

+ 6 down from +10, pointless by the time I arrived. YM is dangerous if the ATR is low.

Plan the Trade

Took some patience to trade this. Called that double bottom, but didn't have the nerve to trade it given the previous price action. The YM, is really challenging after being used to the NQ. But if you can't afford the stops, I'm not sure what else ...

Plan the Trade

+ 12 2 trades, missed a +10 at the start. Seemed really choppy for me today.

Good strategy to be picky, I started off well, and then erm... Anyway, could have righted it but was stuck on the damn phone. Onwards image

Frustrating couple of days for me. Missed 2 easy trades yesterday, which whipped me up. But I didn't go back like a fool. Today the same with one trade. Took another -7. No big deal just frustrating! Have a good one guys.
