Dummy day trading #27 22-September-2006: E-mini Nasdaq: Short trade closed
I was taking extra risk when trading with a exhausted body (Highly unadvisable). Short position of E-mini Nasdaq was established below 1030am chicago time candle. It was NR5 as well. I was being cautious with the trade when Nasdaq index had already lost around -25 points. I decided to close the trade when the next […]

Dummy day trading #26 13-September-2006: E-mini Nasdaq: Long trade closed
Right after oil inventory report was released, my buy stop for E-mini Nasdaq was triggered. The trade did not go in my favour. Stop loss was triggered with 1-R loss. Well, too bad. It seems to be a consolidation day after yesterday’s gain. But, who knows. Anyway, I will stop trading for the day. [photopress:emini_nasdaq_30min_trade_closed.jpg,full,centered] […]

It was another boring day. No dummy setup for me before 12 NY time. E-mini S&P started with strong volume. It was expected to be a volatile and maybe, trending day. E-mini Nasdaq, E-mini S&P as well as mini-sized Dow took a dip during the opening and reversed up in the afternoon. Though no dummy […]
