My entry wasn't the greatest on that play. Went long @ 3105.50 with the same exit.

Same here! Long at 3105.50 and out at 3108 - didnt really like the risk/reward but it worked out this time and could have held on for more but lost confidence in it and was glad to take profits and run

 

[blakecmathis]

Take profits and run all day long brotha! I was thinking the same thing man. I was looking for a big move @ 3101.

All I can say. eff this market

 

[blakecmathis]

This is truly thrilling. Nothing like having to wait 5 damn minutes for ONE candle to form.

Couple of trades I wish I would have played this morning. Should've seen that resistance @ 3112 coming from a mile away.

Hindsight is 20/20. Imho that was 50/50 bet from there. It could have went up to upper ATL of broadening tri from there. But it went down to DTL.
30m candle was for bear play, but still In this market imho it was 50/50 shot

 

[blakecmathis]

@skynetgen Yeah I see what you're saying man.

 

[dolomick]

@Blake and anyone else who likes colored candles, @horserider cleaned up the WTO code to make it an upper study that just gives alert arrows. Coupled with the VWAP that changes colors, and it's another alternative to achieving the same less cluttered lower study area. It's in a WTO thread if anyone wants it.

Also, what Supertrend study is that @Blake - looks cleaner than the lines above or below the candles like you used to have, I like it.

The calm/chop/sqz before storm. Only question when it is going to explode - tomorrow or next week

@Talochka Watch for news about the trade deal. That has been the life blood of ES as of late.

what trade deal ? it is a never ending story , will not happen, just talk and and talk and talk

 

[Talochka]

I have a question about setup for Blake, would you consider short with second Arrow? no CCI confirmation and EF in the middle, not down all the way?

 

[blakecmathis]

@Talochka You might be right but regardless all it takes to move the market up or down is a tweet or some kind of news relating to the deal, whether its true or not. In regard to your question, you've gotta look at the bigger picture man. Will you repost with the your chart zoomed out a little more?

[KarlWolff]

Anyone else getting badly lagging data today?

I was actually considering short at 3PM but it went too fast without me.
The 15:34 one is possible but I consider this is more of gambling one- the trend is against you. The play is for move to vwp at EOD dump (which btw did not happen). If you want scalp 1-3 points its probably reasonable play, however that is not personally my style

 

[blakecmathis]

I actually did make a short play there @ 3119. But, grabbed a point and bailed as soon as I could for exactly the reasons that @skynetgen mentioned.
