Hello all,
I have not been posting for various reasons lately (massive go-live for my project). I have been reading and appreciate everyone's generosity.
Background:
My full time job keeps me from day trading as much as I would like. I'm learning …
Entered a short according to my rules, took a quick +3 pips, moved the stop and was stopped out for another +.4 pips.
Total: +3.4 pips
This stop move deal is part of my trading plan and it worked beautifully for me this time as price went up a little then sideways (at least until 12:30 when my NinjaTrader took the rest of the day off).
It doesn't matter though, because at that time, the boss called.
It appears he needs my special talents earlier today.
I was reconsidering my plan when this happened and it appears I should stick with what works.
Here's the chart. It was a very quick trade so It's kind of hard to see. In and out in less than 3 minutes.
