NQ's historic highs are incredible. I have been looking at 2 different range bar charts. Finding levels where a good push happens and then waiting for price to pullback to the level and be defended. Hope things are going well with you guys.
I am a little concerned about these historic highs leading into an election with a ton of uncertainty. A part of me wonders if we will see a bunch of money get pulled from the markets in September/October. In reality, it doesn't matter to us day traders, we just ride the waves no matter the direction.

I have started an evaluation with LeeLoo. Trying their LeeLoo express which is only $74. 10 trading days to make 6k profit, make it and get a 100k funded account and your $74 back. I figured why not, the most I can lose is 74 dollars. I will keep everyone updated as I go.

Wild ride today. First a daily high, then a daily low, then a daily high, now a daily low again. LOL!

+22 for me today. Still in the hunt for a funded account for LeeLoo. Need to step up my game and push hard over the next week. Hopefully things will settle down a bit.

Hope everyone is doing well.

One trade today. Mowed the yard this morning before the rain hit. Still SIM, obviously. The cars are fixed finally, My mind is cleared. Feels so good. Been a rough couple of weeks with older cars. The charts are feeling good again. This is a 382 tick chart, by the way.

+ 20 Missed a great short couple of ticks which would have been a fabulous trade, I'm sure my patience will pay off. Bank Holiday on Monday in UK so I'll be back at it on Tuesday. Have a good one & keep on keeping on ...

5 min chart is just pure ugliness today. Happy to walk away with +10. I will wait a bit to see if anything shows up.

I'm with Infinity Futures, which is also TransAct Futures. I've made a couple of deposits, one by wire and one by a check I mailed in, over the last 3 weeks. Both times they charged me a $12.50 transaction fee. I don't remember ever seeing this before or being notified about it. Has anyone else seen this? I'm also curious if they are now applying it withdraws.

I've emailed my broker twice about it, with no response back. He is usually very quick to respond to my emails.

I am with AMP futures and the only fee is for bank wire withdrawals. If I do an ACH withdrawal then it is free. There are no fees for deposits.

Ye I got charged a few times to deposit. They also charged me to withdraw. I left them the day they decided to charge $2+ on commission for micro contracts. While AMP was charging like 0.74 round trip. Not sure if infinity is still charging that. Anyway, AMP has been good

Thanks for this. Been using pullbacks myself lately, almost identical you what you are suggesting here. I had the limit buys set up in the menu as you suggested. If I could afford the stops under structure, I would be cooking with gas. Lately though the bars have been way too big.

Thx for video Harold !!!!
I like this entry a lot more, it is like the old one, PB to the S/D zone with limit order.

Wanna know something that will drive you nuts???? LOL! A single contract long opened on March 23rd would have made you over 100k!


Anyway. +20 on the day. I have about 3 days left on the LeeLoo express trial but I am way behind on profit. I am thinking that with just $74 tied up in it that it may be time for some very aggressive trading. LOL!

back from deer hunting for a few days. will head back out after labor day. today was another 3T and another trailing stop. watched price
action early, lots of rotation (new month) and volatility. came back to a subdued early afternoon (east coast time). saw a 1-2-3 and 2b break setup.
haven't had a chance yet to watch above video, will look at it, I'm sure it is helpful.
good luck
regards

watched the video, good points in this type of market conditions. missed a number of entries (too many to draw). instead of fridays, weds is
becoming the new weds for me. at least today with the vix where it is at the moment. below what I was looking at on the 1 min chart. hope all
are doing well.
