Good evening traders, this is Brian with TraderShark.com, an educational website to learn how to trade the emini S&P futures. Today is Wednesday, September 26th, 2012.
The market opened up this morning here at 1435.25 represented by this white line. 1435 was actually yesterday’s low, so we were aware of this level up here. Price action came out outside the no trade zone. First 15 minutes of the day we don’t generally trade.
Didn’t really have any opportunities to get in until right here about 10:20. Had an opportunity to get short. Target 1 and target 2 were hit, so depending on your entry you could have gotten anywhere from plus 9 to plus 12 ticks on that particular trade.
We then found support at 1427.50. Nice little bounce for 4 ticks. Two ticks and 4 ticks were our profit targets. And then quickly get back on it. Target 1 and target 2 for a total of 8 ticks to the downside. We then had a nice little bounce off the bottom. We really probably should have waited for our price action to get above this particular moving average. Did not. Got target 1 off and got stopped out a total of minus 2. Plus 2 and minus 4 for minus 2 ticks.
Price action continued on into the no trade zone from 11:30 until 1:15 Eastern Standard Time. Coming out of the no trade zone did not have any other opportunities. Kind of wrapped around this moving average. We did see selling pressure going into the close. Couple other opportunities. We even had a shorting opportunity right here. It was pretty choppy in the afternoon.
