Well, I have to apologize for this one. I made a mistake in the entry and didn’t notice until after the trade triggered. See ES below.
Net ticks: -7 ticks.
As usual, let’s start by taking a look at the ES and NQ with our market directional lines, VWAP, and Comber on the 5-minute chart from today’s session:
ES:
On the chart, I liked the way that the ES was basing just over S1 from Thursday into Friday (basically the Thursday low was Friday’s S1 blue line). I wanted to go short under that (1345.00), which worked to the 6 tick partial. However, I put the numbers into the Messenger to go short under LBreak (1343.25 at A), which was a little lower and triggered and stopped. Anyone that took the course should have recognized the difference (the S1 was both calculated and conventional charting combined, as we teach), but I blew it. Never done that before, so I apologize:
