Closing out early today. Size was right, read was right, just want to bank it and not give any back into the close.
CPI reaction was cleaner than I expected -- market actually respected the level instead of whipsawing through it.
Slow day for scalps. Sometimes the best trade is the one you don't take.
Three-session range on YM is getting tighter. Whichever way this breaks, it should move.
Crude's been the only thing with real follow-through all week. Everything else is noise by comparison.
Scalping this range has been rough today -- every level's fading through instead of holding. Stepping back for a bit.
Midday chop as expected. Sitting on hands until the afternoon session unless something breaks the range.
Rolled my weekly calls out -- theta was getting expensive into the print. Small size, staying flexible.
Anyone else seeing the volume dry up on this NQ push? Feels thin up here.
Premarket levels holding up so far. ES 6480 is the line in the sand for me today.
