<NihabaAshi> That's a fill at 715.00 and 715.30 because I didn't realize I only had a stop on 1 contract :( 10:53

With a stop managment error like that...I'm done for the trading day.

<dan-away> Shorts YM @ 10938 «« paper »» 10:55

<NihabaAshi> After doing some additional analysis...I now see why my Shorts have not reached a WRB pt2 level... 10:59

ER2 is in a Bullish pattern.

<WannaBeBOS> looks kind of sideways to me 11:00

<NihabaAshi> That's what I thought at first until I changed my time frame. 11:01

Regardless...its still choppy and I now have a bullish bias.

<WannaBeBOS> northern snowstorm dampening it i think 11:02

<NihabaAshi> If it stays that way without any more declines...I'll be going Large tomorrow on the Long positions.

Trading Perspective: Although from first impression it looks like I was aggressive in my trading...I actually took it easy today and a few position size management errors told me that I wasn't mentally prepared to trade today.
Currently, I have a bullish bias for my position size management and my trading this morning was that of a bearish bias.

Tonight I'll re-examine my higher time frame charts to be more prepared to trade tomorrow.
