ES short term trading 4/08/10

crucial day.. short term bias:down (hell it is Thursday, right? ). well yesterday they took it down almost to my 1172.50 number (and the trendline!) falling just short at 1173.25.The bad news is last night on globex we hit 1172.50 and crashed below the trendline. Oddly enough, seems like most bloggers are expecting a wave 3 explosion higher today, so one of us is going to be very right or very wrong!

Thats fine rburns, we all get exicted in this business

Amazing strength here..stopped out at 1183.00, now down a hundred bucks

averaged in at 80.75 which basically sucks.......here is a chart that shows how the price distribution will look when it begins to trend.......look at those little valleys on the right...shows me price wasn't efficient and two sided trade did't take place at those spots..so just looking at this chart alone they will need to fill in 81.50, 79.50 and 77.50 and of course the 74. I'm not convinced that it's gonna happen today.....seems like the 85 area is next natural target and yesterdays highs..damn..

Always tricky for me to catch the trends and never really do...sometimes I think I have the trend fiqured out and something shows up to mess me up...today that 1174 messed me up

my least favorite time to hold short is from 2:40 till bonds close....shaken out many times

any one see sellers yet....I's seeing subtle signs but it's probably a mirage!!!

sold 1184.50, covered one at 1183.25
and holding the other for 1182.00

out at1183.50 on the other... i'll live to fight another day! flat day today.See ya tomorrow!

these levels are critical as we are now into yesterdays high volume if it breaks Bruce you will be happy

Short 1183.

didn't happen for me....I covered for the loss just before the cash close at 82.75...I'm glad that trend is out of the way just wish I could have stuck to my iniial plan and targets

what happened here AK1...I think Rburns has a point that we need some kind of reason and follow up.......but I don't like how he is coming on here and not really contributing...only trying to get your "secrets"...I think we gotta give a little to get a lot...anyway I'm trying to keep you honest...LOL
