Although the counter-trend fades showed good production at selected levels, the best trade of the day was from the opening in the NQ. I was late to the screen and could only watch it push through the breakout level of a variation of the 3-Bar ORB. As I write this summary post-1st frame, it's still going as the signs of a Persistent Trend Day Up continue to appear. You can't get in a trade if you're not in front of the screen... Get on the job...the Trader has work to do....
