Why are you trading against yourself? :confused: :confused:

It's been near impossible to trade using my standard 5-min tactics, but I switched to a 1-min chart. Even so, I had a trade today run 17 ticks my way, stop me out near b/e almost to the tick, then run right on down through my target (without me). Days like this the 1-min chart is really helpful.

Daily chart sure looks bullish IMHO.

With the whippy action in CL today, I think being a blind dead grandmother could give you an edge :p

I only put on 5 or 10 if I can get a entry such as, say, short @ 83.09 off the 83.10 high :p

Dejavu, you're making my brain itch. You sold a pivot high...That is my dream entry! Your defense of your 100% win rate is costing you $$. (Sorry for whining, I can't help it.) :D :D :D

And there you have it, folks: market manipulation right out in the open :p

Buy dips, sell rallies, it works either way. When the LongBoyz bought all the way from 1135 down to 1040, that was pretty darn contrarian, but no one got killed from what I can see, though who knows, because we can call trades all day every day with no stops and average down until we've...

Maybe they're off off by a day due to the holiday? I read somewhere that the EIA report is Thursday, not tomorrow, but Briefing.com lists it as tomorrow.

Prime entry, FD. Since you shorted off a lower high WITH the trend, look for a break through the previous support level as your initial target zone and then see if the market will offer more. In fact you could even add a contract at a break of that 81.43 support, because then you're expecting a...

Thanks! The market offered more than I expected on that one! Funny our time stamps were identical on the 81.55 :p

Hey, I'm pretty sure I bought your contract!

Yesterday the CFO of CSX sold 100,000 shares. Hmmm...

ANF & JPM, very clean technically

Walt, I'm glad you appreciate my posts. Writing it out helps cement things for me and if it helps someone else, that's great. I was pretty frustrated by several things this morning, first by the fact that I used a 1-min signal to get an early entry on my first trade, but didn't use it to...

Only if you buy a pullback that broke the trend line in your time frame.

I believe this is one of the best trade setups in the world, ever. And that would have nothing to do with the fact that I shorted @ 1160.00 right around the same time. Being a happily married woman, I'm not sure if I should keep hanging around the same "bars" as you. :D

That's the one I was thinking of when I posted. I think their P/E was over 90 when they guided lower.

Beating earnings estimates only affects price out of the gate. It's the guidance provided during the conference call that drives the price longer term. And if a stock trades at a very high P/E and the guidance is a bit less than great, price can fall off a cliff even if earnings are a beat.

Puddles, I saw WYNN hitting the hi ticker like crazy and thought for sure you'd retire trading it to the long side!
