Been taking care of stuff outside of trading since Friday so no trades up until this afternoon. Caught a small win for +36. Then caught a whopper of a trade for +525!! Trying to put together something that will show what I am doing. I am not much of ...

With the pending interest rate release I took only one trade today. It was a good one though. +201 ticks. Technically should still be in it but markets are a bit jittery. Took it on the 1 minute chart since nothing was even close to setting up on ...

Three trades today all on the 5 min chart. Seems weird trading the 5 min in all of this volatility but it works nicely. Last day of sim trading. Trade 1: -14 ticks. Would have been a good trade had I followed the rule I set where no stops can be ...

Still trading sim especially during US session. Seeing weird price movements like earlier this year. Trade Cautiously. Took 3 trades in sim for a total of +77 ticks on 20 second chart. Sim can make you brave in crazy market conditions. LOL! I will ...

Be careful if you are trading anything pre-market. Limit down is showing 11046.00 that's only about 100 points from here. image

Took a nice sim trade a little while ago. I was amazed at how much P/L swung even with one micro. I doubt I would have been able to hold onto it if it was live, especially on that third candle when it dove hard in the wrong direction. Saw it swing ...

5 min chart is just pure ugliness today. Happy to walk away with +10. I will wait a bit to see if anything shows up. image

Starting to wonder if trading Asia or Euro would yield more consistent results. Euro session 5 min chart: image US session 5 min chart: image BTW +2 ticks today. Not much screen time.

Nerves got me today as well. So far, took one trade for a +6 based on the 1 min chart. Chickened out on the gift the market was giving me just after that trade that would have been a nice one. Wouda, coulda, shoulda..... LOL! image

Started using the 5 min chart and waiting for a set up to start forming there, then I use the 20 second chart for entry. Once in the trade I go back to the 5 min to manage it. Seems to be working nicely but it really tests your patience. image

Took one trade today. Started out as a scalp but started to move nicely. Took +204 ticks on a single micro contract. image

Jumped on a nice trade after that initial drop and took +26 ticks. Totally ticked that I didn't take the next set up. Oh well, no time machines here so I just have to embrace the suck. LOL! image

Only took a single trade today. The market volatility was just insane. MNQ has done 1.1 million contracts today. Unreal. Simple trade, normal entry of waiting for the pullback then a down candle followed by an up candle. Jumped out with 11 ticks ...

Varies depending on the market. Usually set to 3-4 ticks above the previous swing high but I rarely let it go that far. Caught a nice move on the 1 min chart for 402 ticks to more than make up for the crappy trading this morning. image

Fridays are usually the worst for me as far as results go. I decided to just scalp a little today to try and break my freaky Friday's curse. Took 4 trades for a total of 86 ticks on a single micro contract. Trade 1: The four moving averages you see ...

scalped today. Fridays and my trading typically will battle each other so I decided today I would scalp some just to make some ticks. Finished out +86 ticks trading just 1 micro. Not a major return but the consistency is there. Traded on the 20 ...

Two trades so far. +73 ticks. I think I see something on the 5 min chart that needs more testing but shows big promise. Chart below is 20 second chart. first trade was a simple breakout trade. I knew how likely NQ was to give a head fake at the open ...
