Simple: it depend on how many hours you "stare" at your screen. ;-)

So I guess you just don't know how to read! No one said anything different!

Even during the trading day the volume is not getting much better in this exchange traded spread. Not a good place to be.

And just got kicked out of a long ES trade: $675 ES just made it back to the opening level but could not make it much higher (at least not fast enough for my taste) - unfortunately. Done for now!

Long trade in CL after making it over the night session high. $1,120

Totally agree! I am not a big fan of scalping neither because you have to be better then 50% on your trades and that's very, very tough. Much better to go for a 3:1 or even 5:1 ratio in my opinion.

Losing trading this early morning short ENQ -$875. (I usually don't trade the night session. Now I remember why ;-). Winning trade short ENQ after the day session open $1,940. We are trading at the overnight lows. Need to wait to see what will happen.

My risk tolerance is not very high. If I would go much higher I "would mind" losing and it would bother me. As a result, it would affect my trading decisions. So, I trade at a level where "I don't mind" having a losing trade. This is actually a key factor in my trading. It took me quite some...

I am usually trading about $1,000 risk per trade.

I found 2 spreads interesting for the upcoming week:

I am not an expert trading this spread Heispark to be honest. It's an exchange traded spread. It means, it is represented as a single contract for trading, but it is not very liquid. You might do better by simply trading both contracts (HO and CL) separately. Note: you need to create an so...

CC stands for Cocoa my friend! Dec - Sep. CQG: CCES1U22 (it's Sep - Dec) upside down.

To be honest, NO. I am usually just looking at the basics. Mainly on the seasonal statistics.

The symbol for this spread on CQG is HOECLE.

No, not really. I am trading spreads long term on a daily basis. Intraday I am using outright futures.

Tried another short in ENQ but it didn't move and it timed out. Got out at b/e. Done for today

I have noticed that a "bad decision" (chasing the trade) often results into more bad decisions. I usually try to avoid them but it is not always possible.

Getting in late because I was distracted. Out too early - chicken out! :-) On the chart below you can see my normal entry level, first and second target on the trade.

Another little ENQ short trade. Got into this trade far to late and out too early. Shame on me! Really bad management. +$905

I like your idea. Will look onto the spreads over the weekend.
