0.75 point. Traded 1 contract. By 10:33PM CST, it has only moved between 1042 and 1043.

I'm working on a new order entry program with price ladder feature that will simplify the order entry.

7.75 point. All longs. Traded 4 contracts. ES bounced back from 50MA. It's hard to tell whether or not it will resume uptrend. It depends on the strength of this bounce and follow through next day.

-8.5 point. Traded 4 contracts the first time. Stopped out at 1043.75. It then bounced back to the entry point. Shorted @ 1044.5 - 1045. target 1044.25, a tick above the session's support area. Stop set at 1050 Friday's close. Will review it in the morning before the market open.

In the begining of the Monday session, the short was covered at the target 1044.25. - 4.5 point now.

YM -41 @ 9712, ND -8.5 @ 1041 and ES -4.5 @ 1044.5. Will short @ 1045 again.

1.25 point. Two shorts at 1057.25 and 1057.5. Covered both at 1056.75 before GLOBEX nightly shutdown. Original targets were set at 1056.5 and 1056.25, but it's not worth of uncertainty leaving the short position over next session. Session low was 1056.25. There were fills at 1056.5 at this writing, but my order was not at the head of the queue anyway.
