I did take my first short today, I am still adjusting to the processing time for trading a 1 minute chart/ mnq is having great ranges though
Today I end up +13 points
Today had 2 trades that moved immediately my way
Total Profit +17.5 points
Trade 1 +10.5 points
Trade +7 points
Holding the trades longer is still something I am working on, trading and focusing on the 1 minute I am staying present and looking for base hits using the open 9 ema and just simple 100-point extension levels to define trend. Targets are something I am still working.
Overall Today the biggest win was that I stopped trading, I did not maximize upside, but I took two set-ups journaled them in real time and captured price movement.
I will say doing this with mnq vs mes or mym the speed of price and having the discipline to put a clear stop in. Definitely helps me keep that hope drug in check.
June 25 Stats
Today was abled to capture 12.5 points on MNQ
I traded counter trend today mainly due to the late start I got this morning.
The short side is something I am still working on capturing.
Taking profits quick seems to be suitable for the one minute time frame I will try to start extending for 10 point green trades instead of 5-7 point trades.
