Thanks brother! Unfortunately, whenever I stick my head in other threads, people want to chop it off. I'm happy and humble here in my home with people who want to make money and not bitch to one another about how to do it.

Besides, the way we trade, things happen too quick most times to spread your time around in other threads...

Careful with this. If you didn't get in right on the bounce. We have strong Daily Resistance at 133.78 so watch carefully and cover quick.

Hey Dak, why'd you take the long from 6120? I would have jumped in it with you if my h1 would have closed above 6120.

i watch the 5M charts so i'm looking for a switch in the PA. it hit 18 several times then jumped to 20. that was my cue. it was only good for 5 pip which i didn't take. i got out at BE. i'm not as brave as you guys. i don't have the heart to take a trade and watch it for too long. i need my gratification now ..

even on my sys it was a long shot cuz i had closed below the 200SMA and that's pretty significant but the PA was calling my name. no biggies. i'm up almost 300 pips for the day (from yesterday to now) so i'm on a bit of cruise control

One more trade call today and Stew is going to miss it again. Damn! I need to get him on speed dial so he can get these.

Anyways, Long from 6115, SL at 6100. I'm still holding shorts, targeting 614x to 615x on this long position.

yeah. i won't go into detail since this isn't my thread but the long and short of it this. i put my charts together a long time ago with some help from EO. So i look for shifts in the market on a short term basis using PA as my prime function and my MA's as a guide. i set up a trade then compound the hell out of it when my direction is confirmed.
