We got into the heads of other traders during this session, helping us initiate profitable trades in the E-Mini S&Ps and December Gold futures in real time and with relatively little risk. These were small trades in not-very-promising circumstances, to be sure. But that was a purpose of the exercise – i.e., to force trades that looked even the least bit appealing, and to analyze the ‘psychology’ of the trades in minute-by-minute detail. Both set-ups required using the ‘camouflage’ entry technique, and although this required some work, it reduced our entry risk down to nearly nothing.
