GLOBEX swinging wide.

884.25/50 if anyone wants this

well, look at that

I hate them when I'm short :)

this is it right here

Yes, but a regular drone usually hits things where we expect, as roofer has shown so many times, so we wouldn't likely be short when they hit.

if this turns around here at the ABCD it will hit the upper // with an ABCD circa 889

So, are you still holding a partial short on this? The bulls are very weak on this push up. If they can't ramp off this 'retest' ABCD here, I think they are toast.

That program pop was a godsend to get back on that short side.

no, I wish I had, but I had to respect context

Watch the .886 'retest' here.

I understand what you're saying, T.
I guess my comment was referring to traded timeframe and management.
If one were to trade this as a DT at a key line and 447 the traded timeframe should be a 120min chart.
Based on that it produced three minor bars that, imo, are inconclusive either way.
I didn't take the trade because just a trigger off the PTA wasn't good enough for me. For a daytrade I wanted to see a nice Wave 2 type pullback to get in (which it ultimately still might produce on the traded timeframe). It didn't give me that so I stood aside.
I guess my point is that I have often mismanaged trades in the past because I got caught up on lower timeframes where everything is magnified. while I find it important to see what goes on there and it has helped me understand price action better I have also found it misleading at times.
Like you said, you have the experience to tell the difference on a lower timeframe.
For me it's a work in progress.
