NOW COMES THE GOOD PART ..... set up trades long 10 at 81 -- out at 85 -- points 40 short 10 at 85 -- out at 83 -- points 20 long 10 at 83 -- out at 86 -- points 30 short 10 at 86 -- out at 84 -- points 20 long 10 at 84 -- stopped out at 82 -- points minus20 SARed to short 10 at 82 -- stopped out at 84 -- points minus 20 SARed to long 10 at 84 -- out at 88 -- points 40 short 10 at 88 -- out at 86 -- points 20 long 10 at 86 close at 8 minutes before mkt close -- out at 86 -- points 0 total positive points 170 total minus points 40 total fees points 90 total profit 40 points .... I think scalping and beans are easier than this positioning ...... Let me see .... 10 contracts times $5k per for maint and margin (day trades MOC, no overnights) comes to $ 50k tied up and risked to make 40 points times $50 equals $2K .... that makes 4%ROI for today. now on the scalping ... 2 contracts times $5k and 13 point times $50 equals $10k tied up to make $650 equals 6.5%ROI for today ..... I'm sticking to scalping .......GGGG
