So last week I was looking for a relief rally after 7-straight down weeks in the S&P500, with the intention to join the buyers after price spent some time above ES_F 3955. It turned out to be a fantastic week. While I'm sure some traders got in lower than I did, ES_F still finished ~200pts higher than that 3955 level where I felt comfortable trading the long side. I mention this as a reminder that it's absolutely not necessary to try and bottom-tick or top-tick a market to be successful...in fact, it's quite reckless to even attempt such a feat.
