Closed all shorts and bought here 1265 !
If I don't mention SL and/or TP = longer-term setup possibly in the works!

Bulls will desperately try to keep it above 1250 as long as possible, under which bears are in hibernation and would not be happy to be awaken! Even as high as here, with this volatility, I don't exclude any possibility, and both wayyyyyyys 
Bloody crazy price !
Each trader just has to pick their battle carefully I believe; "Just" is NOT synonym of 'easy' here
. And has to manage it responsibly. I could not do it half as well with so many setups without ea's.
This happens rarely to me anymore, but I admit without shame that closing my shorts this early was not a professional move. That long setup came in the midst of some conflicting personal matters, and I have been feeling outside pressure for the last couple of weeks... Lets just say it was half trading, half holiday's early onset blues
. This is when I yell from the top of my lungs : time to call it for the year 2021 crazy MTako! KIdding ! Sell Stop 12799
Now, it's ok to start with a loss and/or end with a loss.
As traders. we often need time to adapt to the price's mood after all.
As long as the middle stays meatier and juicier
!
Second last shorts of the year closed today, at a point where price is probably just beginning its way back down ---
I knew I had to wait after my 1300s trades, and waited till 1200 was tested before making any serious moves to add to my shorts. Now I got a big loss and got stopped at BE with this following one, as planned :
Sorry to have not been able to update it live... I added as much info as I could at the time, to share when I would probably get out if it gets too hot.
Closed at BE
And my big loss of the month:
-67 -3 +21 +68
+76
+107
Ideal would have had to wait just ONE extra day
, but nothing is perfect, especially not me !
Final update of the year!, since my return, where I promised myself I would do more updates with as much insight as I could on how I trade in a strong enough trend :
+ 107 +76+68-67-3+21
Some of my main thoughts of the day :
Tacos on me for the new year as usual !!!
Wishing to all a most memorable holiday! Peace, health, joy to you and your loved ones

Hi all just sold, 1.12112 Happy Thanksgiving! {image}
... If 1200s holds as support, 1220s minimum probability is too great, I'd get out at BE and wait again....
Closed at BE

Some of my main thoughts of the day :
...Setup still has potential for this one as long as no 1H close above 1240. If 1200s holds as support, 1220s minimum probability is too great, I'd get out at BE and wait again. Worst if 1210s holds straight away here + 1220s doesn't hold = continuance of bulls, 1250s. Now, they are two in the 1200s, two good close friends! ... My adapting risk management with these entries, for the time being, dictates that I can only take one more friend between 1170 and 1275, and it would be around 1250s or at lowest...
{quote} ..Too early to tell, but could very well be the beginning of a new rise back up to years highs in the spirit of the monthly range, or at the limits of long awaited the retracement, two grand extremes out of a myriad of possibilities. Most important for bears now, showing the bulls that 1270s-1300s has become resistance, and a strong one at that. Knowing how they can be when awaken, Bulls might just shrug it off
