I think that ES is likely to hit a huge area around 1960, with two subgroupings at 53-58 and 67.

76 looks promising. Reversal here?

And so it happened. Over 40 pips down right off .447. All within one hour.

Yawn. Trying to stay awake here. Good thing I got a big nap, but all this late night stuff is wearing me out. What can I do? I was waiting on the area, then it just started grinding up slowly. The low? 85.50. Nah, I've not been at this game very long, now have I? Up 23.25 by my data so far. Sure, one can trail a stop, and that is my SOP approach to a situation like this, but it's far from optimal. My preferred management style is 'active' as opposed to 'passive'. Anyway, keep an eye out in here, as this is the first real 'key area' it might not be able to hack (the KZ, of course). It's all about their intentions now. My preference is a monster dump and resumption of the downtrend. Hard. I've about had it for tonight anyway, as far as staying awake.

Anyway, the key area is from here down to perhaps 85. 85-89. The key .447 is at 79.32, but it's the outlier. I'm ready.

Cable on fire again. It wants to hit lower 1.46's today, with over 200 pips move.

there are some crazy ass targets for this, if that is minor 1, and minor 3 is about to kick in around the .382.....

bull trap?

they are really good. Bear abcd followed by bull abcd, then chop. Sure looks as though it's going to dump though.

What can I say about today? Awesome, insane, same old, same old? I am so glad that feeling I got they were about to gun it up (on the higher timeframe) was indeed the con, the hustle, the game, the old make it look strong right before they crater it dealio. In 'the old days', I feel, I could tell like almost every time the true intentions. Now I probably could do that, too, I feel, if I just accepted it's almost always a trap to suck you in. It's almost always going to do the opposite, big time, than what they make it look like, if they are making it blatantly obvious. Regardless, I mentioned I prefer they dump it hard, and I got my wish. I always try to trade what I see unfolding, not what I suspect might happen. I never marry a position, or an idea.
