Trader Workstation and Profit/Loss Statement

Today's WRB Analysis: Today was a market seasonal tendency (cycle) that I failed to exploit for big profits due to greed.

What I meant to say is that I knew the market was going down today with high probability and I was determine to Short any market rallies if a pattern signal appeared.

The problem is that somehow I went from my aggressive trading plan to my conservative trading plan when the GAP Down at the open occurred. In hindsight, my trading plan should not have change and its trading plan error I rarely make involving market seasonal tendencies.

The good thing was that I didn't stand in the way of those Dark WRBs that acted like falling rocks.

Take a look at our 5min ER2 regular trading hour chart (no overnight data) and I counted twelve Dark WRBs in which five of those Dark WRBs failed to push prices lower.

Click on chart to view actual size

Simply, seven Dark WRBs were trend continuation price action, one Dark WRB was a trend reversal price action while the remaining four Dark WRBs was counter-trend price actions (chart does not highlight the trend continuation Dark WRBs).

All of these Dark WRBs were categorized for price direction analysis via the price action that occurred within the first few intervals after each Dark WRB.

However, instead of giving you the specific times of each Dark WRB...I'm just going to give the specific times of those five Dark WRBs that were not a trend continuation pattern in that their price action seemed at first to get in the way of the other falling rocks.

Dark WRB Trend Reversal via the 5min interval that Closed @ 0945am est and later reached a WRB pt2 exit.

Dark WRB Counter-Trend via the 5min interval that Closed @ 1210pm est and later reached a WRB pt2 exit.

Dark WRB Counter-Trend via the 5min interval that Closed @ 1335pm est and later reached a WRB pt1 exit.

Dark WRB Counter-Trend via the 5min interval that Closed @ 1515pm est and later reached a trigger price to prompt moving a initial stop/loss protection into a +1 tick profitable trailing stop...a trailing stop that gets hit on the retrace back down.

Dark WRB Counter-Trend via the 5min interval that Closed @ 1600pm est and later reached a WRB pt1 exit.

You should notice something already with the above WRB designations...there's a difference between a trend reversal signal and a counter-trend signal and they are differentiated by the price action since May 8th Tuesday...a key trading day prior to the FOMC Announcement trading day.

If you look at the price action closer, you'll see a Japanese Candlestick bullish engulfing pattern involved with the Dark WRB trend reversal price action of 0945am est.

You should see a Japanese Candlestick bullish harami pattern and double bottom pattern (1205pm - 1335pm est) involved with the Dark WRB counter-trend price action of 1335pm est.

Thus, the Dark WRB counter-trend price action of 1210pm est helped setup that Double Bottom.

With that said and some hindsight analysis, I was already bearish from the Open due to the market seasonal tendency (cycle).

Thus, I should have been larger in my position size on the Shorts in comparison to my Long positions.

Further, I only trade counter-trend patterns if I'm up big in profits for the trading day and always with a small size position.

Last of all, before you read the below chat log, trend reversal signals are dynamic in that they can also behave as a trend continuation signal.

For example, the market is trending downwards and your bias is bearish. Next, the market puts in a minor counter-thrust pattern that fails and produces a trend reversal price action of that minor bullish trend within the major downtrend as in the Short signal @ 1440pm est via the Advance Japanese Candlestick Trading Report (AJCTR).

Simply, to help with your trading when there's a falling rock warning sign, you need to learn about WRB Analysis.

General Strategy Info: Currently, I'm exclusively trading the Russell 2000 Emini ER2 futures even though my strategies are applicable and profitable on all the trading instruments listed towards the bottom of this webpage along with my past trade journals showing consistent profits in other trading instruments prior to exclusively trading Emini Futures ER2.

In addition, I use a rule based (no subjectivity) methodology via my best strategies involving WRB Analysis. However, there are other key variables integrated with WRB Analysis that involves simple concepts of intermarket analysis, market seasonal tendencies, volatility analysis, support/resistance zones and position size management along with custom Japanese Candlestick patterns to complete my trading plan that results in consistent profits.

With that said, today's trade posting chat log is below and it contains all my trades that were posted in realtime along with the trades of other members of #FuturesTrades. Also, I use the user name NihabaAshi in the below trade posting chat log.

<NihabaAshi> Shorts ER2 @ 829.60 -> small size 09:32

<eminitrader> Long ES @ 1511 09:35

<jperl> ER2 bounced off of 829.70 area

<NihabaAshi> I have a Bearish Bias all trading day today. 09:38

However, the GAP down at the Open is problematic for my bias.

Thus, I will keep my Shorts on the very low side of a small size position (1-2 contracts only). 09:39

Same with my Long positions.

Another way of looking at it...

Had the market not GAP down...I would be Shorting via a large size position. 09:40

Position Size Management

Also, so far, the volatility sucks :)

<les> its turning into downcreep crap 11:25

<NihabaAshi> Too much downside pressure at the moment especially with the price action of Oil and Gold keeping the pressure to the downside for the Eminis. 11:26

Intermarket Analysis

Simply, if Oil and Gold can show a little stability...could be worth a few ticks to the upside in the Eminis. 11:27

<pat255> ty niha ...seems u pay close attention to oil gold & bonds 11:28

<NihabaAshi> Yep...on some trading days they are the real leaders.

Doesn't happen often but enough in that I need to pay attention to what they are doing. 11:29

<NihabaAshi> My entry sucked...should have been about 5 ticks lower. 13:21

<szubaark> what timeframe?

<NihabaAshi> In other words I would have entered at 823.50 and dumping about now at 824.00 13:22

Lucky escape :(

<Brutus> Shorts ES @ 1502 «« paper »» 13:27

<NihabaAshi> I didn't plan on having a stressful trade on that.

<RussellDaytrade> I have 826 model, 827.80 adjusted model..shall we say by 1220 mnt?

if breaks lows con gusto, new targets will develop 13:28

flatted it 13:32

trend-follower dream day 13:34

<NihabaAshi> Forex EurUsd and CME EuroFX getting hammered today as well. 13:37

On the flip side...U.S. Dollar doing very well today :)

That's important for me considering I live in Canada and my U.S. dollar carries more weight here. 13:38

Tagged my Stop then my way :((

<NihabaAshi> Reminder: It's Mother's Day on Sunday. 13:43

<werner> lol

<NihabaAshi> I forgot once about 12 years ago and I still get an earful about it. 13:44

<Brutus> Better be something expensive considering yesterdays winnings :))

<ItalianSharp> thanks for reminding us Niha...i had totally forgot...lol 13:45

<NihabaAshi> I feel cheap...I payed for a $90 "Carnations, Roses and Tulips Arrangement".

<Brutus> dang thats no cheap, no point buying flowers they only turn to compost 13:46

<NihabaAshi> That's what my spouse saids... 13:47

<ItalianSharp> i agree with brutus...flowers are the biggest waste of money ever

fake flowers are better...at least they never die...lol

<RussellDaytrade> better to send no flowers then fake flowers, seems to me. :) 13:48

that would truly be a heart-breaker 13:49

<Brutus> looks like an afternoon reversal in the making

<RussellDaytrade> last posted targets still on, good probability they will exceed

got back in at 822.2 13:50

<NihabaAshi> Brutus, its setup nicely for such right now.

In fact, I think since 1:36pm est its the best chance all day for a possible good push to the upside in comparison to the one between 0945am - 1045am est. 13:52

Traders Accounting
As traders we must treat our trading like a business if we are to succeed as traders and as a business. Therefore, waiting till the last few weeks March to prepare for April's taxes is not good for your trading and could put extra stress on your trading during tax month or the months that follow if your one of those traders that filed an extension.. Therefore, its best to be on top of your taxes throughout the year and Traders Accounting is a great resource for such especially if you want to prevent penalties or an audit several years from now.

I thought it had enough press to test the 820.00 price area but it just stalled around 820.50 15:57

I started suspecting there was a support zone somewhere near that 820.50 that I couldn't see.

The market made a statement today about its "real reaction" to yesterday's FOMC Announcement. 16:01

However, I would have like to have seen the Treasury Futures completely retraced yesterday's price drop. 16:03

It came close.

<asuni> [15:58:20] <NihabaAshi> I started suspecting there was a support zone somewhere near that 820.50 that I couldn't see. 16:06

sr zone was 82100/82080

<NihabaAshi> Thanks asuni.

<asuni> may 2nd 16:07

<NihabaAshi> Looks like I escaped just in time in my last trade :)

<asuni> u just had to ask me :-)
