Another sleepy low volume day,  market taking a breather after a Holiday run-up, no other explanation. We had 4 conservative trade setups today for a total of 20 ES ticks. Aggressive traders took two additional trades for 5 more ES ticks. It doesn’t sound like much, but in a slow consolidating market like we have had for the last two days, it was a very good trading day.

Happy Valentines Day! Well… for some. Today was a sleepy day with low volume with much consolidation throughout the day. We had one conservative trade for -2 ES ticks. We had three aggressive trades for +12 ES ticks. We exited early on one trade due to a time rule. However, other traders stayed in the trade that completed target 1 and target 2, which yielded 21 ES ticks for those that did not pull their stops.
