Short at 08:24, filled at 2581.50. Market went sideways before taking out my stop for a 2 point loss.
Second trade was a long at 13:58, market went sideways into the open...;
E-Mini NASDAQ
....then down to 2576.75 taking out my stop for a 2 point loss. The market then rallied 35 points higher (so far). I was stopped out from a great trade for the sake of 0.5 of a point.
That's unfortunate, but comes with the territory when trading futures. Perhaps it might have been more wise to place my stop just below the low that occurred before I entered the trade...
