An interesting mix of price action day trading, cooking, and saltwater fly fishing.
And I included some of the price action from the end of yesterday because it helps tell the story of the bear trap on B1.

And generally I am in a trade as long as it takes to get to a 1R or 2R target. Sometimes that is 15-20 minutes, sometimes 3 hours. As long as there isn’t a clear counter-trade move of significance, I stay in the trade.

On that trade, I got long above 55, moved my stop to BE because I didn’t like those wicks leading into the EMA, got stopped out by 59, re-entered above it. Took profits at the 2R target but left one contract running in case we went to HoD, it got stopped out below 69. Got a bit chopped up earlier🥴.

You’re welcome! The amount of time I’ve put into learning this stuff is massive. It is hours every day, not counting trading time. I truly enjoy the process but it is a lot of work. Making these charts helps me as much as you. And keeps me accountable to myself.

And I will say my entries are starting to look a lot like his! I always mark my charts based on my own analysis, but I also always check Dr. Brooks’ chart to see how well I’ve done. I mean, he is the GOAT after all…. #student #alwayslearning

Nice. I’ve tried to be a scalper many times and it eventually lead to bad tilt binges. So I take swing trades, which is any trade that reaches two times my initial risk. I don’t hold overnight. The ranges on /ES and /MES have been so big and I am trying to grab a chunk of the moves up and down.
