Have a great weekend as well!! Caught a couple of moves down. Now it is pulling back, probably on 15m or so. Watching either 12100 or 12160 to see if it will stop there.
Boy, that was a wrong prediction!

No guts, no glory I guess but I wait till at least 15 minutes to 30 minutes after NY RTH open before putting on a trade.

Well, I was targeting 12400, but that didn't happen. Moved stop to BE and stopped out. Maybe should have taken a 30 point profit.?

in my opinion it is okay to close a position when you are not feeling good about it anymore... otherwise let it run. We never know for sure and the dilemma is that we tend to do the wrong things at the wrong time in trading. Next time you might remember todays action and close the position +30 only to see it hit your TP ..

Scouts are always spendable... the Army never.

Put it like this: you asked the market and you paid for the info.
What matters is... what did you do with the information you received?

I took my small loss trying to go up but now I'm banking as a Bear! m5.
