Matcha - Glad you are back and well rested. I liked your summation of lessons learned during your break. With the mid-term elections over and the Fed on record regarding QE2 all market participants have a bit more clarity. Welcome Back :D

Nice :) I have charts in background, doing other CL research right now

SIM BL 6.2 Contingent Orders S6.0 T 6.7 Edit: Wishful thinking - Still learning to trust software :)

+1 Ya can't buy voters and influence lobbyists (whose interests generate re-election contributions) without spending money in Washington. They don't call them "Beltway Bandits" for nothing. It the same old story banished from the public's consciousness with the likes of Ross Perot. What fun...

This subject is discussed in small sections of many investment books in less than rigorous terms. Some years ago Ralph Vince wrote a couple of books which deal with this subject very intensively: Portfolio Management Formulas : Mathematical Trading Methods for the Futures, Options, and Stock...

Great Research - Thanks for drilling down to find these references :)

Make all my friends rich and become your personal servant (We'd have some fun) :)

Thanks - I'm working at it :) I don't think I'll ever trade with the frequency folks do here - But I would like to be that fluid. My first trade (I think) would have stood on it's own if I had left it as written rather than pulling it. My second trade was rushed, I came back from a lunch...

Don't feel bad my own slow reactions allowed me to turn 1 winner into a slightly less than BE day :( CL is for the Quick and the Dead I have a lot to learn here :)

As a further update on things medical, I'm planning to set up an appointment with my ophthalmologist next week to have the phrase, "Trade what you see" micro printed onto both my cornea's :)

Looks like markets do respond to API despite the large US stock levels in place :) Good Guess :D API Report News Today: SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- The American Petroleum Institute reported late Tuesday a decline of 4.1 million barrels on the nation's crude-oil inventories on the week...

If you really want to broaden your views on "crude strength"; Recognize that you are talking about pricing which is nominated in $ but not necessarily transacted directly in $. The elevated $ pricing feels out of line. I haven't drilled into IAE; EID; fundamentals at this point. It's fair to...

Sorry - Didn't mean to reply a bit sharply. I guess I'm a bit aggrevated with my trading. I had turned off the charts, just turned them back on to look. I think there's a lot of hysteric's right now in front of the FED (QE and all). I try not to foist too much bias here as it does no one any...

Great Article - Except for what looks like a bit of short squeeze over the last couple days, the seasonal awaits weather that hasn't arrived and storage numbers remain huge :)

My take is that it's a QE play: Not so sure the move will be up from here although that was my play today. http://www.marketwatch.com/video/asset/what-baked-into-the-market/6B7308D9-529E-4CE2-AD31-B65EA83758B8

:( That sucks - They will likely get their due in good time.

Nice Work :D

With ~ 13 days left for CLZ10 it will be intesting to see who buys back or sells off OI into delivery :D

Yeah - I actually went to my dentist (talk about risk aversion) to set up another appointment and drop off some stuff :)
