    CL Redux

    my first blush before today`s action was that the expiring would be stronger, and the new front month would be sold down a little, a lot weaker feel than the expiring during trading. But I frankly didn`t expect the euro to be susceptable to a run below 1.23....tonight we could see 122.50...

    CL Redux

    the next level of support i see is around the 77 area if we get some pressure. Then 75.75 area for next level of support depending upon what forex, equities do the rest of the week. One would think it would take a series of bad news to due much damage past there.

    market pyschology of the moment is never priced in, people knew the greeks were going to protest ahead of time, it wasn`t till the pictures of the riots happened on tv, that the shorts took advantage. While everybody is discussing slower growth in europe overnight, shorts in europe at 2:30...

    the topic overnight was the yuan revaluation, slower growth in europe due to austerity plans will be the topic in europe tonight, plus this yuan revaluation is overdone, china is just postering before g-20, good for a trade, that`s it....they aren`t meaningfully going to let their currency...

    Taking 410K to 4million by Year End 2010

    They tried to sell it off like every other rally, but the key was that there was substance behind the rally, and oversold energy sector from the previous day, people actually wanted some of those firms in their portfolio. In other words, it wasn`t going to sell off, they tried late in the...

    during the day "Run to the bank to wire funds into your account" you ever do?

    basically, it usually means that you have poor money management issues, poor utilization of stops, or got screwed with some crazy flash crash slippage. All traders have to learn this through experience, to evolve as a trader. Mostly overnight, then wire for am trading, the closest I can...

    I grant you if you are talking about the expiring front month on the last day of trading, going from 68 to 64 and back to 68 in very short time. However, did you check out those bid ask spreads that day, sometimes they were like 50 cents. That was just major mess with it b/c you can type...
