{quote} PTJ II - " “You always want to be with whatever the predominant trend is. My metric for everything I look at is the 200-day moving average of closing price." Wahaaaaaattt? So simple? No holy grail? No secrets? No black box? Martin Schwartz a 10 day MA and Tudor Jones a 200 day MA? Retailers will never understand.
must be black magic or something !

EddyL if I may... suppose you are holding, aren't you?
Hm, I guess I should post. I had a small position at the break of 12490, intended to hold it for a while, then chickened out after 5m looked like it made a higher low, so got out around 12460. Right now it looks like it could go either way, so I don't regret it (well, maybe a little).

I also had 2 positions at the break of flat level 12466 on 1 minute, after it broke below 12490. Those ones I closed out at 15 and 30 point gain. Didn't post those.

I also had 2 more at 12450 after the first pullback to see if I could go short again. But that didn't work...

They really want my stop... LOL
Come on... I'm here.

OOOppss they came to last point. But was nice. I had to! My rules.
Markets so full of hidden gaps are really complex.
This is the job.
Ready to re-enter.

Good trades, Jupiter!


You know, I deeply think that nothing is random in the market.
As Wyckoff used to say... each effect has its own proper cause.

Question is.. we traders don't see them. Or don't want to see them. Or don't know how to see them...
