I trade 1 ct. My goal is to make 500$ a day.I average 5-6 trades per day for the last month.I look for 4-5 points per trade ussually, depends how volatile is the market. I like to enter arround pivot points. I am very new at this, and still dealing with my emotions,patience, discipline. When I am right with the market direction I add on to my position (sometimes). This is my plan for now, still working hard to come up with something consistent.

Almost all the foreign markets were crushed yesterday; I have never seen futures down so much, if we stay down here at the open, the dow will open down - 3-4 hundred points?

this is trying to build above that 65 area......after the 71 area I have 77.50 on my radar but I think I'm having a poor read on volume tonight....that 65 is critical though..trade and acceptance below that will not be cool

nice double bottom there at 1260

not much in the way of a bounce in the ER2 however, till I see some confirmation in the ER2, will view bounces as short opportunities...

thanks PT..you may have noticed that we had that stronger push on that last one minute bar up into the 1274 number...this left a gap on the one minute at 1271.25, so I did not want to out stay my welcome and have to deal with that as I though they would bring it back from some point to fill it in....
