He entered short at the wrong time and the move was already over. I was waiting for price to hit 16666.

One needs to be patient.
There will be plenty of shorting opportunities. I am taking only the set ups that I think have a chance to give 10+ pips.

Short dow 731

For a time being I have put a larger SL on both, will adjust the trailing stop when in profit.

Dax H 9969 has not a close above it on Daily and H4 although on two occasions there were new Hs.
I take it as an indication that the shorts are likely to harvest some pips.
Indices are in a topping mode for last few days, the trend up is strong, but pulbacks are part of PA in any traded instrument.

Dow looking to break up.

You're all aware that the ISM data was re-released today right? That the low figure was "suddenly" found to be a mis-calculation and the figure re-released with all the numbers magically better? LOL

I am sure that Goldman and the rest have not fallen pray to that "mis"calculation.🙂

5 pm, time to have a break, there is little point in trading if one cannot have many good breaks.
My trades are well set up, so there is little for me to do, apart of messing things up, if I stay too long at the comps in the evening.
