got in at 51.50, tightening stop to 51.55. equities look adamant about breaking highs very soon, maybe tonight. target still the same.

we're forming a mini-top this week at 51.50. hit it a few times already. i have a small short set at 51.45, stop at 51.70. target 50.70 or until i wake up.

i hope this is true. i have a few charts to compare crude, euro/usd is one of them. lately, crude oil doesn't seem to be correlated much with any market besides RB/HO, and that's making it a little more difficult to trade for me. and about stops, i think everyone has their own philosophy...

nice exit IV, got it on the dot. i set a price and went to lunch, came back and was already out. got out too soon.

cashed out at 51.00

Got out of my ES trades with small profit. It's holding up very well. Small long at 50.40. Hopefully we can retrace back to 10:30 prices.

yeah oil used to move opposite stocks, now it moves with stocks :confused: another market that's decoupled from basically everything is gold, which i used to trade exclusively until it confused the hell out of me.

euro/usd is still moving up, is this gonna pull us up?

shorted @ 71.25 stops 73.50 lets go down now :)

closed out shorts. took a hit on this trade. bah, seriously bad trading today.

higher than expected build in oil. now all we need is for stocks to not break this multi-month high we're at.

wow, definitely should've waited before i shorted. we're moving up vigorously into a bearish report. i guess if it were easy it wouldn't be fun, but seriously, wtf is going on.

got stopped out last night. right now holding shorts from 50.45. will try to hold right up till the reports.

holding on until tomorrow morning, stop set to profits. it feels like whenever a bearish report is anticipated, the MMs pull the market up at the close on tuesdays. it's almost arbitrage if you wait for it and then short.

holding a short into after-hours. we always seem to pull back on these high-closes. in at 50.03, stop 50.20.

for me, yeah, because news like that will affect the trend, so even short-term, you want to trade with the trend.

out again, +8c. market is way too choppy and stalling too much. will watch for now.

went long, heavy (2 cars) at 49.27.

out at 49.23. choppy market, gonna take profits where ever.

short from 49.45, stop 49.60 taking a gamble here, not sure which way we're headed into the close but evidence points south.
