    Out on trailing stop at 1462.75 for +3.00. Too bad, I was hoping for a homerun on this one, but I'll take my 3 points. I'm up 20 on the day, which is a good thing because I got killed trading during the holidays (which I should know better than to do). Going to take a break here. P.S...

    Just thinking the same thing: where's Spectre, Apex, Spooz?

    Approaching a 15-min overhead trendline here at 1464.75. If we can break above 1465, I think we're headed for the 70s.

    Unless it's changed, Tradestation's r/t comm is $4.80.

    Long from 1459.75, small. EDIT: Stop to b/e, trailing up. EDIT: Ya gotta give the buyers credit for persistence here. They keep bashing up against the ceiling at 1463.00, get knocked back, and keep trying again. I don't have any real confidence that they'll make it through resistance...

    Buying has been coming in in the 58-59 area, which suggests that perhaps this range-bound chop will ultimately resolve to the upside. OTOH, one must be vigilant for a Wyckoff thrust here -- a headfake to the upside followed by falling off the cliff.

    No perceptible trend today so far. We may be destined to chop between mid-50s and low-60s for awhile until the market decides to break out of that range in one direction or the other. One can make good profits trading the chop if it stays as predictable as it has been so far. The key is having...

    Beautiful! Closed out at 1461.50 for +5.00. Almost bailed on that one a few times, but kept trailing the stop and hung in there.

    Underwhelmed with buying so far, raising stop to b/e and will trail up in case this one doesn't go the distance.

    Best I can figure, if someone places a market order to buy 200 contracts, and only 150 are offered at the ask price, the T&S window shows 150 at ask and 50 above ask (at the next tick higher). Vice-versa with market orders to sell.

    On the sidelines here, watching to see what happens at 63-64. If selling comes in there, it's another short. If we penetrate it, I'd look to go long for a target above 1470, at which point I'd be looking to go short for a homerun. Flat for now.

    Strong support at 1455, strong resistance at 1463.50. Had those lines drawn on my chart before the open.

    Long from 1459.75, small. EDIT: Nope, bad idea, out for -1.

    Quick scalp here: Short 1463.00, out 1461.00 for +2. Now flat.

    Never got a chance to add. PT1 sell order hit and filled at 1461.75 for +6.00. Now flat.

    Long from 1455.75, small. Looking to add on with 15-min reversal bar. Targets 1462 and 1470.
