No trades today.

Got one trade yesterday and then had to build a shed. Today was a go nowhere day with 2 standard R/T trades.See Today’s Results

Bad day. Out of sync with the market. Two trades that were impatient entries. I didn’t wait for confirmation. I guess I’m still rusty from the vacation.See Today’s Results

On the first day back from vacation, I tend to over trade. Four trades today. 2 Breakouts, the second one didn’t follow the rules and was a loser. I reversed an salvaged a few dollars from the mistake. The reversal was a delayed fib trade. The last was a counter trend from 12411 area. It seemed like a good bet,mainly because I could set a close stop below 12400.See Today’s Results

One really good trade today. Entered on a breakout (actually after a pullback from the breakout. See the forum article found here.) I also used an exit technique that I learned from Neal Hughes (aka fibmaster). The net result was 40 points!

No trades today. Since the fed is meeting, there’s no follow through and no money to be made.

Slow day while traders wait for he Fed announcement tomorrow.
First trade was a breakout with target 1.6 of the last move. Th e second trade was a counter trend short at 12444. The prior trade reached its target and there is resistance at 12450. Initial target was 12426, but I got impatient and exited at 12430.
