+71-66+32 = $37

Fed day, wild swing both sides.  I traded small, otherwise, I would lose big.  Even on $40 ETF, I made $32.   Before opening computer, I didn’t expect it would unfold like this.  I only stayed cool for about 40 minutes.  Still a lot to learn, especially study how MM set traps.  Art!!!

captured a good run, +343 on ES and ETF combined; followed not so popular 25-trading days old gap;

pocket, 2HrHL setup all in line. Next few weeks, market will likely have low volume and my day job demands a lot.  I also need to study Brooks.  Tentative stop trading until 2015.  Good way to say good bye to 2014.

+42, wilder day than yesterday; morning job saved my ass; fault: not waiting for bar to complete

I would have wrongfully 1) bet on gap close;  2) followed the trend in a range bounding morning

Even I was so cautious, I still picked bottom too early twice and was down $–300 intraday.
