+39.25.

Back in L 4234.5, T 4244

looking solid, might let it run above target.

 

[Gringotts Bank]

Got within 4 ticks of target, but no cigar.

-40

And again, back in long at 4226.25. I knew that was going to happen. Wider stop because of trendline. 4213.25.

Moved target down to 4233.25 due to bad entry.

 

[Gringotts Bank]

+28 (assuming filled, that was the high).

edit: no it wasn't. Was the high on CFDs only. Still in trade.

Too hard trying to trade and post when it's happening quickly. Will be pure luck if I profit from this trade.

+56

Been treading water the last few sessions. Lot of time and effort, and I'm not sure I've learned anything.

I started this thread thinking there's a 2% chance of success. That's realistic, given what I've heard from brokers.

The second rejection of the weekly imbalance level (yellow) was an obvious short signal. Should have seen that at around 4234.

I felt sure it would break through that level. Idée fixe!

A trend day - no retrace. Had to go to bed at some point.

The most striking thing I noticed about last night was the way sentiment swung so fiercely bullish in the online forums. Last time I saw this was around Apr 2020. Something's up. There's probably only a tiny number of people who really know where the market is going to go next, because they are the ones moving it. But they interact with others and there's an emotion contagion effect. 'The boss seems happy today - I wonder why?'.

Might get to 4267.25 tonight.

L 4237
stop at 4234.
Will just see how it plays out in terms of a target.
