Woohoo! Sweet profit!! You're in the zone again, MVW :-) Awesome!! You are sharp in your analysis - it's your edge - you just have to trust it enough to let profits run. I, for one, want your kind of wins, but I just can't sit. When I do, I usually bail at the wrong time. I don't think I've ever pocketed 10 ES points in one trade. Envious!! :-)
When I put on the trade, I had it planned out on paper, all the numbers in excel calculated. I was serious about this trade; to me the charts were clear: this is the area for the next POSSIBLE swing. I planned on holding out for the early 900s from 871.
What did I do? I saw 500, got giddy and took it! Oh well, next time…
Regarding holding. It’s a tough transition. What I did to help the transition was take my shorter scalp signals from the 1, 3, and 5, and applied them to longer term charts. Since the market operates in fractals, it’s essentially the same trade, just on a different time frame.
But really, it’s not the only way to trade. The only right way to trade is the way that makes money :)

Haha, thanks. You, too! Probably feels sweet unloading those options :)
