Well .. 2 and 5 mostly. I'm just taking small scalps on the short side today. Mostly staying long. With the FOMC pattern I'm edgy when short right now ..

Lets see .. average trade time .. about 30 min .. initial stop .. none .. if the market makes a sharp move like it just did when I make a play, I'll set another entry to try to capture the mid point by average. (always try to save dry powder for that) Then I'll consider a stop. (at this moment I have a limit buy in at 1503) Usually by that time the market has turned in my favor. If not then I have to consider how to work my way out of the deep doodoo .. I guess that I need to work on stop management. Seems that whenever I do that my stops get taken out every time ..
