SL got hit...


I would normally SAR at pivot that gave us our LOD..i.e. 3623+filter = 3625...
SL would be LOD... add at 10 LLV

But I got tickets for SIMBA for evening show... so will call it a day....

A look at the EOD chart suggests we are finally in a phase where the market is digesting the gains. We had a quick 20% move from the bottom... and its was mostly forced short covering that took us this high. We are now drifting sideways... hoping for some news to give us the direction.

As Intraday traders, thats where we loose money as most of our stoploss gets hit... either direction. Market takes out a pivot only to move sharply in the opposite direction. Those who like to trade break out...would get stuck at the wrong end of the move. Its scary.

Even the High / Low of the day gets tested frequently...and range expands both ways.

This is where I reduce our trading volumes by half and prefer to scalp for few points instead of playing the directional game.
