My Life My Trade

At a minimum we should see 14.750 and there is a good chance we will see 14.550 soon.

+2.5 points

The retracement I was looking for did not happen. But the futures did get a bump up in the AH due to AMAT earnings surprise. AMAT earnings should not impact the market much. Therefore, closing the position.

Looking to catch a retracement of the quick down move that happened in the last 10 minutes of NYSE hours.

During the day, I went long NQ at 1441.5 and got stopped out at 1440.5. And 5 minutes after that NQ ripped to the upside.. made me very mad at the Market Makers..  I decided to walk away from my computer at that point because I realized that I might try to force some stupid trades.

UPDATE 11:40PM PT: Stopped out at 1478.25
