I think the risk/reward here is hard to pass up

CME_MINI:ESM2018   E-mini S&P 500 Futures (Jun 2018)
I wanted to get into this around 2610 but hesitated...the risk/volatility here is no joke, but the potential reward is astronomical. I can see 2640 to 2660 tomorrow, without breaking a sweat, if you will.

Trades like this remind me why I moved away from anything equity and toward forex instead...the headache and stress just aren't worth it, it seems...
Comment:
Next time I think about trading equity index futures, please send me msgs telling me not to, no matter how abusive you have to be. Although, I say that now...meanwhile, the chart is setting up very, very nicely to skyrocket, so tomorrow I'll probably feel it was all worth it.
Trade closed: target reached:
So, I got out at 2640, but I think it may be a good time to get back in. Anyway, a nice 18 pt profit ($900/contract) in a couple of days was great.
Comment:
I should have gotten back in...I'm gonna regret trying to be so slick with the timing...
Comment:
Got to within 2 ticks of the 60 I thought it might get to...that's a lot of money left on the table...a lot...
