Buy @ 13258 SL 13200 TP 13460

out @ 13322 +64 ticks

There's something about the YM that makes me very cautious. Considering also that the dollar is gaining strength, yet we are seeing the stock indices move up makes me nervous.

So I went ahead and closed my position.

When I look at the markets like this, and something doesn't seem to correlate just right, then I tend to just take my profit and look for another trade.

A good day on the YM.

We're getting closer to the area that was in my original screenshot... This is where I start to look for opportunities.

Remember, I'm not looking for an exact touch. If we were to get a nice Pinbar, or BEOB or something like that right now, I'd definitely get in... but here's the area I'll really be paying attention, and I might even go down to 1H to finetune my entry south...

out @ 2.0773 -71 pips

Buy @ 2.0784 SL 2.0734 TP 2.0860 (break of 1H ascending triangle)

out @ 2.0795 +11 pips

I kinda noticed that the market didn't want to pass this fractal that was forming on the 1H. As soon as I got out, the thing dropped down to (currently) the 0775 area... which means I timed it perfectly. Heck, usually it's the other way around...

I'm currently flat, but looking for opportunities on all timeframes.

The sound of the echo from the great godly KA-CHING simply takes a few days to travel down to us mere mortals

But Mr Trends slot machine has been so quiet today !!

Will we bounce and continue the trend? Or are we heading to the weekly TL? The next two weeks should be interesting.

Bond futures... 30 year T-bonds... ZB is the electronic symbol.

Price broke a multi-year resistance level today then came back down a few points... I entered off that break, so I'm taking some heat, but I hope to see it continue up...

Pretty nice market to trade... One contract is $31.25 per point, which for bond futures it's measured in 1/32's... so if you got in at 115 1/32 and it moves to 116, you made $31.25 * 31 ...

I know this is just a journal, but would you mind touching on how you decide on your SLs and TPs? It's something that has always flummoxed me with most PA.

Cheers
