anyone trying shorts??


Up here at 845 ES....S&P is holding back this rally today...where the HECK is my plus or (hopefully) minus 8 - 10 range? has everyone gone to 24 hour trading???
some days there are just too many numbers to watch.....I guess the POC should have been on the radar as we spent so much time there on Tuesday and wednesday...just can't find anything good up here...like a deer in headlights....there's an OVB on the 15 minute but I just can't short this now....all markets at there HV based on time now...
thanks REd..are you using 30 minute closes as your filter or something smaller?

I agree Kool....what was so important about 86 anyway? only thing I could find was the closing range of last week (cash close) ....

Frankly, the push below that 891 level yesterday should have led to a test of the bottom of the triangle 877-882. But 886.25 is all we get? very confusing.

who put the plus 8 in the way of this rally..? Any of you folks find it easy to find significant chart points or numbers when you are not trading? I do....lol....failure up here will try and get below the opening range and 92.50 which is a big volume number
nice observation MM.....so once we got above the downside was limited..thanks...I don't do enough with key levels from other markets but should....

I still use the 30min. / the only time I don't is if I get
a good candle signal
A measured move brings me to the 919 area / there I have a s4 pivot.
alot of resistance to get thru. We'll see.
That 886 is square of 9 and I know Joe kept adding to it when we moved
into that area....LOL :)
