I think this is the reason: "As I have been telling you recently, there is some unprecedented data coming out in petroleum distillates, and they slap me in the face and tell me we have some very bad economic trends going on, totally out of line with such things as the hopium market - I mean...

Can u please post a chart? Tx!

good question, I'd like to know the answer as well :)

thanks for the detailed explanation.

thanks. I just looked at it and do you really mean the close of the bar below 600 or the low of the bar below 600. I don't think you can easily see where the bar is closed on that chart because the white line so overpowers the bars. Not trying to be a stickler, just trying to understand...

thanks, close on what time chart? 5 min? 1 min?

bigsnack, what do you mean by close below -600? thanks.

Thanks everybody for commenting. I know that I'm the one who has to do the work. 1300 seems almost inevitable based on monthly and weekly range extension as well as being a round number magnet. So 1280 would be a good level to buy at for a swing up. I will be looking for a good set up around...

Important Levels to target for tomorrow 1284 1264

Today was a trading range day after all, I took a number of trades and was at b/e for the day. These were the mistakes I made: - didn't wait for the bar to close before placing a trade - Trading in a congestion zone. I need to pay attention to these tomorrow. Also, I closed my...

RN, thanks for commenting. It makes sense and I think just by posting my feelings I acknowledged them and that helped me .
