It's been years since I traded NG or rolled any trade. I just saw the UNG chart before I came here and was wondering why it looks much different than the futures charts. So Handle, how have you been handling your position? Have the roll adjustments in price been killing you? If I was holding...

http://www.tradingeconomics.com/commodity/natural-gas There have been spikes up to 10-14. But even 6 would return a sizable chunk of change if you can wait long enough and have enough $ to hold.

Yes, it's still in a downtrend, but the thing is $2.7 right now. I am looking to buy around $2 as much as I can afford a drop to lower with the intent of holding it for ever or until another bubble occurs. Smart people take trades they can never lose. How can you lose buying and holding at 2$...

Ur allowance + chore $ duh He's right I would have 1 house paid off by now... How can u tell if a horse is lame or not , the rumor mill?

Thanks man I try. But with that 10 yr candle ur gonna be dead before u get a single buy/sell signal. Also be careful not to draw lines without the ruler. Hint the 5 min is the magic. And if u want to color ur candles u can but I pref BnW.

Dude you sound lost. No trend line I've ever seen can just be drawn on close data. That's not the purpose. You need to read some good books on TA I think, there u will learn the concepts you need to know. But yea you are lacking data as well. Probably best to use a pen and paper dude. It's...

Why so complicated..? I print charts out week after week, and review my trades and go over patterns with a pen and ruler.

idk dude, my trades are not that risky, i mean i risk a few hundred a day? that's like a normal job. my rewards tho, those can be abnormal :) u can park money in a mutual fund and trade do both. im going to invest in real estate and trade.

I was TF but forced into CL due to 100$ / month fee, not that that's really much it just illogical to pay that when other exchanges are 1$

Depends on how you define "active" Only way to make money is to trade a volatile instrument and take a couple trades a day either reversal or continuation. Any more than that and you will kill yourself.

Nice 11 yr old thread.

Ok, so every knows CL is a bitch and here is why: My auto stop is set .25 cents away from entry. This moved happened in under 2 minutes and I was filled 16 cents lower than where my hard stop was at the WORST POSSIBLE TICK. Honestly I want to plant a bomb in CL exchange / the black box HFT...

All three; risk averse, simple, high probability no..

It took me losing that money to know I was doing something wrong. Pretty bad. I had some success trading that way, but there is a much better way. I completely changed the way I trade now. Much easier/less stress (high probability).

I dropped 25 x 1k and now make money 9 / 10 days Should I up and quit?

I must be really dumb man I'm manually trading on 800 tick and 5 min bars and have made money 7 days in a row.

Most of us are ants yes, but don't forget ants can lift 10x their body weight. Worst idea ever is take out money from somewhere else when you're not making money hand over fist with your own first. A great trader could take 5k and return a few 100 a day and grow from there. Risk has nothing to...

Thanks, but I would rather use my smart brain to draw lines than a dumb computer. Also, you have the bars backwards on your chart what sense does it make to have black bars be up? that's like inverse to anything I've ever seen!

Trading by nature is not a social thing... Think about it, when you're trading, you're competing with everyone else to take their money. I'm not going to go to a group to share what took me years to do well. Much better to hide in a cave, do your own testing and develop your own method. That's...

Though others typed their similar stories out I'll do mine too since you're young and naïve just as I was when I started out at 7 years ago at 22. So I started in 2009, and 2014 was my first positive year. Of course then I thought I new things and lost most of my account at the end of 2015...
