hey man,
If you consider your main swing from 12820, I would probably still look for shorts around 12770.

Gentlemen,
Anybody here had the issue with trades from a particular day not showing up with the broker (Phillip Capital). The executions show up in the ninjatrader executions tab and yes the trades are done under the same account but I woke up today to see the account balance reflecting what it was the day before yesterday. I have emailed the support, lets see what they says...

On top of that, I got a terrible fill for my last trade today. Closed at +47, ended up with +32. Still happy that it is positive though.

Hi Pradlal,

I had a confusing thing happen last month when I had a few M6B trades in one day and held a few overnight. Maybe you're in the same situation. It was like the brokerage took the orders out of order...or missed an exit completely. When I woke up my entry price on the open trade was 30 points off and match the entry on a previous trade that had already been closed according to NinjaTrader. It was confusing. Here is an excerpt from their email explaining it. Maybe this will help explain it if it is in fact the same issue..

" Thank you for the inquiry.
You mostly have it correct in regards to the offsetting nature of the different carry prices. There are a few notes I'll add that should clarify exactly what is happening.

On Day 1 of carrying a position, the clearing firm will carry a price that gives you the largest margin value for the account (generally the highest buy and lowest sell). This generally gives the account a higher closed profit and a larger open loss, but as you mentioned, those values are offsetting.

On Day 2+ of carrying a contract, the FCM will carry the oldest open price. This is where the confusion lies in your situation.Once you carried 1 contract, that price will be carried forward as long as you keep 1 contract open. On the 11th you went 1x1, meaning you were still long 1 contract. The FCM closes all of the intraday trades and leaves open the original position since you now only have to meet maintenance margin instead of initial margin for that position."

This is interesting. But for me, I close all trades the same day. I have attached a screenshot of the chart for yesterday as well as the executions tab for context.

I'm sure they'll explain better than I can as I'm not sure what even happened with mine that day. I wonder if the brokerage's end of day is based on New York or Chicago time rather than your local time.

When you figure it out please post here as I'd like to know what they say. Thanks!

In my opinion... it seems like the economic news has really had a strong impact on this market recently. Kind of reminds me of forex with those big volatile swings.
Luck has no place in trading. Leave that for the poker table.

I got a reply from ninjatrader support. Seems like an issue on Phillip Capitals end. I tend to not trust the brokers after years in the forex markets, I guess its time to change that

Thank you for your inquiry.
This is a Phillip Capital Eurex reporting issue.
Phillip Capital will be adding these trades to the statement tonight and these trades will have the appropriate date (5/31/18) on them.

Moved to BE+ on EURUSD short.

Edit: Should have taken profit from an aggressive trail but was demo trading YM and missed the candle. I'll switch to trailing with fractals and see what I can pick up on a longer term.

I identified LH on 12750 and SL was few pips above and I went in sell on 12700. I have to still study a lot.... too many wrong entries.

Plot the price structures to have high probabilities that the price reaches there. We identify impulse and then its correction. We're short, in this case, +51.
And then the bullish rebound, by large volume and BT. I did not have time to record it, but we were there. Greetings, good weekend.

I stayed out - price was moving too fast for me to be comfortable with entry - it just didnt seem normal. Next! Looking for longs but my AOI is out of my risk tolerance range so sitting on my hands for now
