Daytrading the ES with TsuBot Breaks the Usual Conventions



We understand there are other ways to skin a cat. Other systems trade multiple time frames, and others will use conventional charting patterns to determine the overall trend. We know of at least one major software vendor that teaches you should only take a sell when you have a lower high and a lower low first. Please remember statistics tell us that 90% of day traders lose, and if you are trading like everyone else, you will probably have the same results as everybody else. Welcome to the 21st century. We trade Price Volume and Momentum on one time frame and don't bother with charting patterns, candlesticks, Fibonacci, Gann, etc etc etc. Today we took a nice E-mini ES sell in a "screaming uptrend", and achieved our daily trading goal in short order. No lower high and lower low here. Just a nice winning trade.

Trade Plan:

Trade Emini ES 5000 share chart
Enter TsuBot signals 100% mechanically.
Exit at +2 points Limit.

Sold ES 937.75 at 10:03 am est
Exited at 935.75 at 10:05 am est

2 minutes to goal.

Have a great trading day!
