Closed that position out for a small 100 points, momentum died again. Wonder if we will see a big drop in the initial hours of the US open for more buying room and better entries, it really should have a bearish turn soon. @2be, yeah... I agree. As ...

Yeah me too, Monty. Hence why I put that SL at BE. Oh well - in again at 25748. It should drop soon but having some fun in the meantime. Time to unleash the big guns on the next drop. That said, AMD dropped 6%, Microsoft and Tesla all 2.5% ...

SL tagged at BE.. looks like we'll get the nice little retracement now.

I closed out for around 120, momentum died

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

No, closed the old one for a small loss. Opened a new long at 25.020 and also had a few from the Frankfurt session this morning (hindsight), wasn't thinking of posting with all the usual moans going on. Price moved above the 200ma for the S&P. There ...

Exited for around 120+ on the short... just a cover, don't like shorting this market.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Switched to short at 24.4k. I wrote in my post and took it out... you can see momentum often change at 2:30pm UK time (that's officially when the market opens and orders filter through). Edit: SL to BE on short, closed the long - think it was 70+ ...

It's pushing up again... long 24.483 Will watch closely because it's been attempting to set new highs and has broken down, could easily go either way imo but market is always skewed to the upside so I will follow the momentum. Low risk position, ...

It's due another fall by nature of the market - up, down, up, down. Good news, bad news, good news. I saw the shorting opportunity last night but left it alone. Not getting caught out again when the market gets supported..

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Hmm - in session trading volume is again showing at 1/10 of what it normally produces, perhaps this provided the big swings. Uncertain market.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Moved my SL up to 150 points, got tagged. Feels like the market is running out of steam as ranges are narrowing. Would expect a few down days soon, looking for bigger opportunities on larger timeframes afterwards. Basically waiting for more blood in ...

Market was definitely showing downside potential this morning, I saw the shorting opportunity and decided not to fight the..

SL to BE... market came out of the blocks explosively.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Long 24506... giving it another go, market still wants to make a push.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

SL at break even got tapped. Market is running out of steam a little, ranges are smaller.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Seems like it’s making a second push, speculative 24.560 long.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Closed out a little earlier for 150 points, small scalp...doesn't feel like it's going to challenge any highs today.

Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Unsuccessful traders will always want to point the finger, they are intrinsically angry. Such is life. Conversely, Jupiter stopped by and nobody paid attention to his trades because they were small amounts. Yet I paid interest to his scalping ...

Noticed that there is an SMA dashboard for tradingview in circulation. This is very useful, could someone share the code please? thanks
