Thursday's action

COMS (15-minute chart) was good for .20, which is actually 4%. Low price, heavy volume, easy to take a big position and get in and out.

I have a few open positions that are going the right way - I will see if they can get close to the target before the Fed announcement.

More later.

Hi X,

I passed COMS on 15min cht due to 1st bar closing in bottom 1/2. Did you enter off 2nd or 3rd bar?

I went short MTW off 2nd 15min bar, just got out before it snapped back strongly. Do you think the first bar was too big?

I entered COMS on a break of the third bar high. It had closed strong and fillend in some of the area left by the first bars long upper tail.

It was not a great set-up - probably a C+, but I had a feeling about it and thought it would run for .20.

MTW - it bounced (exactly) off the retracment zone from the previous day's low to the OR high.
