ES 12-18-2008


Good morning to the USA, good evening in Asia. As of now, 45 min before RTH. It took a steep plunge to the pivot at 903, all in less than 10 min.

As a short term scalper. Lets see for the first 3 mins to confirm EMA3 is on top of EMA9, 3 green candles with bearish resistance with MACD pointing up. Target 4 points with SL at 3. Trailing stop change to 5 when price changes to 3.

Have a profitable day everyone.

on your chart Kool is that ONLY a time projection...exclusive of price?

after i entered i looked at the 1 and 5 min chart and put my order in just above the 5 min proj. then got side tracked and made a killing!proj was 909.75high and 906.50 low on the 5 min bar=901.25
PURE LUCK! NO DOUBT I WOULD HAVE RUN EARLIER!
gheesh do I loosen the stop because of those matching 01.25's.......?

Thanks Vo that's what I had imagined ...so you can use price projection failures on the lower time frame to get you going in the direction of the larger time frame......

speaking of failures....*cough *cough

(im alluding to myself)

yes yes i need more confidence but poking fun at myself is better than seriously saying im a tool.
