sim long .62 stop at .55 (ok) same target as before. I expect some chop and slow grind up. :59 stopped out <del>-7 ticks (-28 rolling)</del> -8 ticks (inc. 1 tick slippage) (-30.5 rolling with comms).

sim long .04 (Feb) via stop stop at .89 (15 ticks) target a push to 89.60-ish Will add :38 add .95 (in the red) avg .00 :39 stopped .89 (-21 ticks)

-.66 stop .73 changed to .68 - stopped out, damn -2 ticks late to enter, was still ok with the tight stop, but CL has been showing some resilience in spite of the euro and euro tanking (relative to HOD), so I didn't want to get caught in a stop-run. :(

Thanks, Kid. I was looking to short on that first RTH 5' bar (usually a good tell of market direction), but didn't get a fill at .79, pulled it not wanting to chase and now it looks bouncier. I think I'm gonna wait till the ES opens.

Probably tomorrow - I'm rolling today because I use TOS T&S (IB's is worthless) and otherwise it can get confusing. Best luck/skill to everyone. Kid, while you're still here... what's your take? :D (no, seriously)

Morning everyone, I'm rolling to February (just in case my fills look too good/bad :D )

Thank you for the pictures, Cassandra. If I may make a petition (ok, 2): women in poker and women in trading/finance. Feel free to include some Asians in both :D
