Has CL gotten to be a bit more difficult to trade lately? Well, one of the changes is that before bots traded mainly in 5 point ranges, and mostly on chop days. But now there are so many algo bots in CL these days you now have 12, and even 20 cent bots operating within trending markets...

well, the last stop run was the GS call which sent crude down near the 105 area, that is where new money with size entered, and I imagine sent their trades were instantly profitable as they make the market, that they have moved there stops up, and are sitting on huge profits already, i would...

Today closed bullish, putting in the highest daily low yet and just itching to break out, IMHO. On a purely technical basis, $120-$121 in the cards. I'm not sure how easily that will be able to play out fundamentally, though, without further pertinent news to give a push. Nice work on the...

Open interest was 1.56 million contracts, the highest level since Sept. 12, 2007. http://noir.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601072&sid=ajoSfFQTFAgs I know with spread trading it is hard to tell what is true open interest, but my first take is that with such high open interest with a...

DAV Interactive Brokers Registered: Sep 2004 Posts: 135 A couple of thoughts regarding Interactive Brokers Hello BlueStreek, Regaring your post, can I ask you to clarify some of the points you made? Re: (hi,lo,bid,ask, and last are now controlled per chart) - Do you mean that you...

1) newest refresh of web based tws: what`s with all this grey crap for closed markets? It is messy, and looks like shit when you have large screens across several monitors----get rid of this. 2)Charts---I want my hi,lo,bid,ask, and last markets back for price on my charts, i.e., this is the low...

Constructing empty buildings uses lots of cement, which not surprisingly is priced at an all time high in China. The price to income ratio for Beijing housing is 27:1, five times the global average.

have you moved up to 2 lots yet? if not when do you anticipate the move?

ND, What did your total monthly ticks reach for october, november, and how is dec going?

i noticed that too...copper came back up with crude...gold silver didn`t pull crude down...i think we are weak right before 10 year in equities crude.then either relief rally or wholly shit bad bond auction:)

Well, some key dates: Last day trading=20th (I think I roll the 16th) QM Last day trading the 17th CL Options expire the 15th be careful the 10-14th as front runners try to get out early, and take profits--and bulls have lots of profit since the last roll to protect, and open...

didn`t seem to effect prices at all last rollover, actually they dropped 2 days after the rollover....interesting.

Roll Dates are projected and subject to change without notice. Roll Dates are the expected dates on which the composition of the Benchmark Futures Contract is changed or ''rolled'' by selling the near month contract and buying the next month contract. The change occurs over four days. Roll...

does anybody here know how the uso rolls these days, and if they only use the front month, or a combo of 2,3 months on a rolling basis, and if possible time frame when they roll....this would be great info to take into account......haven`t discovered the answer yet in my research.....but that 8...

yeah, Picasso it sin`t about price, its about price relevant to time. For example 83.71 was an excellent short entry point for what 8 plays lower by 10-40 points, but a nice safe 8 scalps of 10 points for sure, and those add up. But that price is no longer good once the pit closes...

There is a play, it works some of the time, and that is to short the high right before the close in equities, and then some cl traders get out and close out their longs---sometimes you can get a nice scalp.

Picasso: Its an uphill battle to short after 1:20 cst. Equities are near their highs---a standard play is to be in crude when equities blow out any shorts on the melt up close. Crude is in an uptrend, and they move it up so crude opens higher for the next trading day---the move up...

yep, hopefully dv just took a long nap today:)
