My stops are moved to a break even point.

I decided to take a short position in the SP500. Its bumping up against the upper channel. Stop is at 4120 with a 3600 target. This is a very small short position.

I exited the short KC wheat trade for a profit.

I got stopped out of soybeans for a loss. I will give this trade one more chance on the next breakout.

I got snookered again with the Swiss Franc. Late afternoon it winded up closing below the neckline. I may exit this trade Sunday night and take a break from looking at the Franc.

Same stops and limits as before. Last shot at this trade.

Soybean Meal completed a rectangle pattern on Tuesday. I missed this trade, but this is a case example of a rectangle pattern. They are by far the most reliable patterns to trade. The best trades never look back after a breakout.

I just got whipped out in less than 15 minutes for a loss. I will wait for a closing price above today’s high before trying to go long again.

I am long the Swiss Franc (March 23 contract) with a stop at 1.078 and a target of 1.117. It is about to complete a small ascending triangle.

Longer term shows it is clearing major resistance and could be interpreted as a large  double bottom.

Soybeans completed an ascending triangle. I am long the July 23 contract with a stop at 1480 and a target of 1600.
