Had a really good day today on the NQ. Made net +564 ticks with a win ratio of 60%. 40 trades, 24 wins. I was just in sync man! I was strongly biased to the short side. The market is way too heavily focused on the Fed in my opinion. My statistics ...

Out for -1R :-/

I am short NQ @ 7315. SL @ 7340 on the micro contracts. TP 7250.

Yes, there will be some profit taking on longer-term shorts as the NQ has made its first higher high on the 4h chart since mid-May. The line in the sand was 7270. Will be interesting to see if NQ can stay floating above 7300. Next interesting area ...

Just got the boot on my short. Ouch! Guess the Italian situation was hardly noticed by US markets...

Plan the Trade

Sold NQ @ 7326. SL @ 7342. TP open.

Out for +5 ticks. Thin day, think I am gonna call it a day already.

Plan the Trade

I am short NQ @ 7315. Edit: SL @ 7319. TP open.

Plan the Trade

...one more step down. Stop moved to 7340. +52 ticks locked in...

Plan the Trade

Stop moved down to 7347. +24 ticks locked in. Waiting to see if we will dip below 7300 today. So far it's been an inside day...

Plan the Trade

I was looking for a pullback to 7365 yesterday but it didnt happen before today. So I am short now from 7353. Stops above 7367.

Plan the Trade

Yes, trade tensions and geo-stuff continue to hit the markets. I favor the downside today. Will look to sell around 7365 for a break below 7300. Good luck today!

Plan the Trade

Bang out for +56 ticks.

NeptunixFX Trading Journal

Stop moved a notch up to 7432. +56 ticks locked in.

...and let's move it the last bit to b/e. Trade is now risk-free now. 7450 needs to crack and then 7465 before we can see 7500 printed.

NeptunixFX Trading Journal

SL moved up to 7410.

NeptunixFX Trading Journal

I am long @ 7418. Stop @ 7397. TP @ 7500.

NeptunixFX Trading Journal

I agree. Another thing that I like about the micros is the fact that I can control my risk to precision. Because I am a swing type trader, I have previously had some fairly uncomfortable stops. I often have 60-100 ticks stop losses before moving ...

Plan the Trade

Alright, I got poked out @ 7533 for +91 ticks. Maybe not the best stop placement looking at the market right now, but I am pleased.
