tough day in the neighborhood for me a -15 +10 +17 -5 +8 for+15 minus commission net a little 10
2nd Day trading this way. Quite happy with my trading made +22T, that includes a stop loss of 15 on one of my trades.
Before the trading session, I usually mark out on my chart areas of consolidation and areas of S & R.
Unfortunately, I never dragged my area of consolidation at the top of the market across and my losing trade was straight into the top of that area.
Should never have taken it until it was broken. That said another good learning experience.

Just came across a chart from a year ago (almost to the day) of the Q's (weekly), highlighting what i said about recognising ABC's as corrective = HH's to follow;
and today's;
That's quite a few ticks, truth be told!

Hi Div,
May I ask for the reason behind why you waited for another pullback to form before placing an order, and not after the high was taken out? Prior to forming the latest pullback wherein after you've set your order, there was a recent pullback that could've been a good spot also..
Thanks for showing to us this kind of method. It's a simple but profitable method. Looking forward to trading live this 2017!

{quote} I would say so. I like it because it's light (can run off a pen drive), easy broker hookup, and easy chart management/organization. I have some friends who trade some serious size who like sierra but don't use it because 'it's ugly'. I kid you not, lol. Personal preference, to an extent. Personally I would just advise staying away from Ninjatrader and a few others as they are known to be buggy in real-time. I would also advise paying for your own data source and use your broker's dom for entering, as once in a blue moon the broker's data stream will go down and you may need to monitor a trade, or vice versa. This protects you on both fronts. Best of luck
