Fri Jun 1 Pre-News Setups
If you frequent our free chat room, you are aware that I often take positions before the 10am news schedule. ...something most traders tell you not to do. But it should be understood that I do not trade the news, nor would I ever attempt to predict it. But I do take technical signals based on the Valhalla Support / Resistance Grid, and the Serial Sequent Methodology,whether these occur before or after the news. Sometimes the new just speeds things along.... You can read about these things on the website under "E-mini Trading Course", or come into the chat room and witness these trades real time.

Thurs May 31 Don't get cockey
On the one hand, you have a trading plan. It consists of those trade models that appear at the right edge of your video screen. On the other, you have a plan that acknowledges that the markets can, and usually do, just want they want. And that trade plan includes stp-loss risk management, and maximum loss per day management. Today, I hit my maximum losses early on, betting a bit too heavy on signals that usually work. But if you can keep your maximum losses per day at near the same price as any one average day's gains, you still have a chance of ending the week in the black. Managing your losses is the secret to a successful career trading futures.

Tues May 29 Too many trades...
Yes, there should be a behavior governor that restricts the number of trades taken in any given frame. I try to limit mine to 10, and if I can get anywhere near 4 pts in the 1st frame of the day with less than 10, I'm quite willing to quit trading. Today, I grossly exceeded the 10 trade limitation. My only excuse is that so many were small stp-outs under choppy conditions, where the signals remained constant throughout the chop, thus inviting so many re-entries. Eventually it paid off, but most of the time excessive trading just digs a hole.
