Bingo, right into the 618, it's as bout a good a setup as you can get, except we didn't have a great rotation candle.

Mid February Recap, big swings, inflated numbers, statistically same results.... I'm careful to use my contract sizing to keep every trade $$ expectation to be about the same, so an average of 82 points per day doesn't mean that I'm doing 4x better ...

I understand Prock, thanks. One thing I do a little differently than Mr. Pip, and I would be interested to see how you and everyone else does this. I have a maximum loss per trade. In Forex I can nearly set that to the dollar, with Futures you don't ...

Most of that sounds like good advice to any of us, I don't understand the part about retracing to the 76 and looking to get out. Most of my trade setups retrace from a NSH(L), to the 61 or 76 before I even take the trade. I may not be understanding ...

Still long at 25107, we approached structure with very good momentum, the pull back and further rotation extends the profit target.

Lawnman that looks fine to me, you know which order flow you're trading and keeping your expectations in line. My only comment would be when you're trading that immediate order flow, sometimes a 233T rotation can be too costly. I try to keep my tick ...

I don't think there's any right/wrong answers here. In a trending market, I almost never take profit using a take profit and almost always exit my trade trailing which means 2/3rds of the time giving back some points. That other 1/3rd of the time ...
