I was also watching the S&P as it was trading between a consolidation channel between 855 and 860. It could have been a long above the break of 860 which it did but I am so cautious and have been caught out by these sort of trades many times so I thought that perhaps I may enter on a pullback. The market looks like it is make a pullback now but the relative lack of strength when the price action went above 860 looked rather weak.. however, saying that now, it would probably shoot up...

I saw an opportunity on the S&P, the price action had found a temporary base at just below 855 and the stochastics and MACD were indicating that a turn maybe on it's way. I am always a bit hesitant when trading the S&P as my stake size has a minimal size. However, when one sees an opportunity, a good trader needs to take it... so, being the best trader that I could be, I went for it and went long at 856 or nearabouts.
