Couldn't login yesterday to ThinkorSwim, issue my side.
Today's Notes:
08:46 Update Lines, Market Gap Open Down. Nothing to hold back gravity.
08:49 Going Short @ 2,056.50. Before I could update my bracket, default target hit for +1 Points in 6 seconds. Bonus I guess.
My rules state only 1 trade a day however this was an accident. P/L: +1
08:50 Going Short @ 2052.75, Stop above SR, Target Below next SR
10:42 Closed @ 2,046.50 - P/L: +6.25
08:44 Big gap up opening today, existing chart SR looks fine.
08:55 Going to follow the downward trend, nothing super positive going on.
08:58 SELL @ 2,062, Target/Stop See Charts
09:20 Moved Target a bit closer to the SR line.
09:26 Target Hit @ 2,056.75
08:39 Gap up, Greece news.
Follow trend, aim for small upside to next S/R
08:52 Buy @ 2,088 (See Image for Target/Stop)
08:53 Moved Stop lower a little
11:10 Not much going on, tight sideways range. Let it ride.
14:25 Target Hit @ 2,093
08:46 Gap up Opening ~+10
08:58 Gravity taking effect, feel like there will be a little downside. Going short @ 2,113 (Sure I put a limit of 2,113.50)
See Chart for Target/Stop
09:10-15 Annoying could have taken a cheeky +2.5 Points @ 2,110
11:27 Looks like it's been oscillating upwards. STOP probably get hit soon.
13:44 Stop Hit @ 2,116.75
Today: - 3.75
July: 24.75
Feel like perhaps I got too greedy with my target, could have had 2.5 which would have been inline with my original strategy however the previous week of bigger movements had given me a taste for greater swings.
08:58 Small downward trend from open.
Short @ 2,115.50
9:15 Annoying just missed out on target by 0.5 Pts, 2112.25. Going to adjust S/R lines from most recent data. Is my target like yesterday too greedy?
14:45 Stopped out @ 2,119.50
P/L: -4
July: 20.75
Feels like deja-vu, going to tighten up next trade if not volatile.
