Trade is closed with a +4 point profit per rules of system. It may go to original target or reverse to new lows. It does not matter. It is over and done and in the books and now nothing to do but await the next signal. I will compose a post tonight ...

That is today's ES and it is a five minute chart. It is the same market you posted a 512 tick chart of this morning or afternoon here in the thread. Do you want a 20 second chart?

If I were a younger man lol ... or if I had a day job and wanted to "day trade" it looks like there is usually enough action 9:30 PM until they close the exchange for lunch at Midnight. I wish the US were like that lol

That would have been the one trade I'd have made today but I let myself get wrapped up in Divergence's posts and the next thing I know there it was ... I placed a limit order to get in in a retrace but it never came back. I was going to use a method ...

Anyone following along who has access to a 5 minute ES that plots only NYC hours should be able to see the potential makings of a little "Head and Shoulders" bottom. This doesn't mean the market is ready to go on a tear to the upside, but it does ...

Very choppy AM sessions the past three days. Still waiting for a first set up on the ES. Could be getting close to something in the next 30 to 60 minutes. ES often makes three attempts either down or up before turning to trend the other way. Right ...

Plenty of volume trades the ES. The problem, I think you mean, is that in terms of average daily range, it moves far fewer ticks than either the YM or the NQ. For example, The NQ can move 40 ticks in just a few minutes. The ES may take all day some ...

I've been trading the ES. Market has been dead flat with not one set up yet. It is tough to make money when price barely budges.

Don't worry about the ones you missed. It never happened. Just manage the ones you're in.

The thread looks good now that it is back to being focused on trading and concentrated on Harold's set ups. Probably had too many cooks in the kitchen for a while there. I'll try not to muddy the waters any myself.

Funny ... because I have started looking at the 30 second chart this week thanks to your charts and I have found 30 second and 512 tick to be very complimentary with one another. Good thread here as we are all helping one another by sharing.

That is some mighty fine trading, Zen! Congratulations!

TP can be anywhere you want - a set number of points, twice the initial risk, trailed one tick below the low of the last candle. This is where your own risk tolerance, back testing, etc. come into play. I used to be in a skype trading room with a ...
