Russell helps out.


This is a good example of why I say to follow all 4 e-minis, because they do unfold differently. So with -2R on the 3min ES, this +2.2R Profit (ignoring slippage and commission) on the 3min Russell was welcome.

As you can see, the TS1 sell was “in line” with a red STF so was a Standard setup. Even at the first target, this was a nice +2.2R Profit (ignoring slippage and commission). Yes, there was a -1R loss earlier, but that still makes +1.1R Profit on the day for the 3min Russell. +1.2R helps offset the -2R from the ES, making yesterday only a slightly down day.

Thanks, Steve

PS, But the Advanced Traders among you should have spotted another lovely trade on the ES. Please see the Advanced Blog.
