    We have to acknowledge that we're spoiled when a 40,75 point range is a narrow range... :) Oh, I'm bottom picking for sure, but the R/R is fine with me. My rationale is that we're at a major support level here which have been defended. See the 11:00 and recently the 13:15 5-minute bar. As I...

    I'm long again, but don't tell the bots. Will add one unit if we stake out a bottom here. If stopped on that one I'm done for the day and it will be a red one. Better opportunities tomorrow. I have a hunch that if we drop it will be a hard one to sit through with many pops.

    That was fast. Out for a 4 point loss on that last one. I don't think I'll short this. At least not yet. Looking to see if bidders come up below here.

    If we can stake out a low here, I'm looking initially for a minor move to 3807 or 3813. If the market catches a bid we can go all the way to yesterday's close at 3835,25, but let's not get ahead of ourselves... :)

    3793 / 3800 = important levels. The market needs to find a bid here or it looks like a reversal on the weekly. Just not crazy about shorting this either down here.

    Stopped and reversed long. Will bail at 94.

    Okay. Shorted 96.50. Stop and reverse long at 98 with a tight stop.

    93 is the weekly Open and currently holding. Bigger move coming out of here - up or down. Stopped out of a few late shorts here with tight stops, so flat and stalking now.

    how to remove pc noise?

    My Dell Workstation laptop at work is virtually noiseless, but it also costs around $4.5K, so that's out of my budget range. I have a gaming laptop which I use for my trading and it is noisy at times. I've considered upgrading to a desktop machine because of that and I would also feel more...

    Usually, the action is more tradeable when Europe opens.

    Don’t even bother. Spend that money on a nice holiday, food and wine. Or save them. The best advice you ever got which you ain’t gonna follow. :)

    Wobbly market.

    Interesting. Was there news? Like I said earlier this morning and for quite a few times earlier: This market can turn on a dime. Excellent short entry, @schizo. :thumbsup:

    I'm pissed now because I had 2 contracts on from lower prices, so I should have made the over the double. ;) But I guess I shouldn't complain. :)

    Closed it out at 46 for a 29 point gain. This could still run higher on the day, but why risk giving it back as we're due for a pullback and hit target.

    We're very much overextended here short-term, so just going to lock this in. Clearly there's a lot of buying today, so who knows how far this can go. 3850 isn't even 1 % up.

    Stalling a bit here, so best be cautious. Will close out at 32 for sure.

    I will take 10 points off this trade no matter what happens. If this goes to 50 I will be pissed, because I had 2 contracts on from 08.75 which I exited on a trailing stop at the Open. :) If this trade works out it's partially skill/luck. I could have easily been stopped out on those violent...

    At this point, I find it hard to read if we're running into temporary resistance at the Open and will pop through eventually or if we'll actually reverse here. Does anyone have a different read? But since I have a position on, I will "gamble" with what I have on locking in 3 points of profit...

    Volume chart updating faster than I can blink. Too wild for me... :) Two-sided market so far. Maybe taking out the HOD will change that. Remains to be seen. At this point it's just random noise/orders, so I'm just going to lock in 1,5 points and see where it goes.
