[09:41:24] <wrbtrader> trail stop picked
[09:41:33] <wrbtrader> I think I tighten it too early :(
[09:44:44] <wrbtrader> back up into the range of Long Upper Shadow intervals
[09:48:56] <wrbtrader> Just slowly creeping back higher
[09:49:07] <wrbtrader> now a pending KME
[09:49:18] <wrbtrader> @ 1000am est
[09:49:31] <wrbtrader> Hopefully it'll shake things up again

[10:02:41] <wrbtrader> just following the volatility off the KME
[10:02:47] <wrbtrader> not looking good so far
[10:04:09] <wrbtrader> now choppy
[10:04:43] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2914.25 --> 0
[10:04:51] <wrbtrader> :(
[10:05:19] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2914.50 -> large size
[10:05:27] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts re-entry
[10:06:35] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2913.75 --> + 0.75
[10:06:52] <wrbtrader> way too much contraction in the volatility now
[10:07:43] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2913.25 -> large size
[10:07:54] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts re-entry
[10:08:19] <wrbtrader> only have a 3 tick wiggle room via the prior trade
[10:09:05] <wrbtrader> small WRB pt1 reached
[10:10:55] <wrbtrader> slow creeper pullback
[10:11:12] <werner1> Shorts Emini NQ @ 8877.75

[10:13:07] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2909.50 --> + 3.75
[10:13:17] <wrbtrader> trail stop picked pocketed
[10:13:42] <wrbtrader> I've been getting a lot of trails stolen the past 5 or so trading days
[10:14:01] <wrbtrader> Then again...better safe than sorry
[10:14:09] <werner1> indd

[10:38:25] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[10:40:00] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2918.25 --> + 2.25
[10:40:07] <wrbtrader> geeesh :(
[10:40:22] <wrbtrader> taken out again and I had a great early entry
[10:40:58] <wrbtrader> Thought for sure it will drop to reach a 2910 level
[10:41:21] <wrbtrader> Instead, its now fighting hard to go back upwards
[10:44:53] <wrbtrader> Each day now the contraction in the volatility is getting more difficult because of the VIX has been mean reverting
[10:45:08] <wrbtrader> Today its the low 30 level
[10:45:31] <wrbtrader> Things will become difficult when it drops below 25
[10:46:17] <wrbtrader> I'll overal reduce my average position size down to about 3 contracts when the VIX mean reverts more back downward
[10:47:28] <werner1> ok thanks
[10:47:29] <wrbtrader> My guess that will occur mid summer assuming there's no negative global info involving the Coronavirus
[10:48:07] <wrbtrader> I had a planned nice vacation too away from the markets this year...
[10:48:23] <wrbtrader> Nothinig now thanks to the Coronavirus
