Trading Results 8/26, 8/27, & 8/28
Well today only took 3 trades and of course they were all NQ winners to reach our daily profit. The ES slow and sideways action did not trigger a trade for us. The 1st 6E was a loser followed by a very nice trade but unfortunately we were not filled and it was cancelled. The CL did have a loser. As mentioned yesterday, stay tuned for our announcement next week about the NQ market. It is a very strong market and unlike the ES, it moves NICELY even in this low volume environment. In any event, we will be back in the trading room tomorrow morning and we will take a look at the volume. With Labor day on Monday, we are expecting a very lackluster day trading tomorrow so we may just sit on the sidelines and resume on Tuesday.

A GREAT morning trading today and batteld back after yesterday’s rough day. Our 1st 4 trades were all winners and we walked away after only 20 minutes in the market. We had 3 winners on the NQ and 1 on the ES. The 6E even had 2 winners as well. The CL did take a trade late which ended up a loser but a profitable day. As most of you already know, the CL market is more of a long term growth market and most including myself do not count that market into our daily profit income. It will not take a trade every day so I personally set up a 2nd trading account that will just trade the crude market. I can then look at it at the end of the month and see what it does for me. It is up pretty nice over the last year and that is what I like to see. IN any event, we have an exciting announcement next week about the NQ market that you do not want to miss. Stay tuned 🙂

Tuesday August 26th
Well It was one of those days again…slow and nothing going on in the afternoon to recover. We started the day with 2 winners on the NQ followed by a loser late in the morning. In between those trades were 2 losers on the ES. The 1st 6E trade cancelled followed by a loser. Even the CL had a couple losers as well. These are the days where you have to keep your emotions in check and stick with the rules. Every day cannot be a nice easy trading day where you make money and you are done in 30 minutes or less. Day like today brings you back to reality a bit and keeps everything in focus. We do not see a lot of days like this as you can see from the several months of blog posts but it will happen. We simply put it behind us and come back the next day and get it back which we will do tomorrow 🙂
