i'm long at 53.40. HO about to break out here i think... i'm scalping any spike. >out at 53.62

this is just another brutally hard day to trade

no worries m8, you didn't force me to. it was a good idea, i took it. moving stops is definitely a good idea.

i'm going to go into the end of the day with breakeven or a small loss, then scalp double lots until i make my day's profit. why does it happen like this every day. i can't trade intraday for shit.

lol yes. but i don't get bitter anymore, tis all part of the game.

i'm 24, but i can afford trading cuz i live with mums. otherwise i could not afford the swings until i iron out the kinks of this crazy profession. edit: well, another textbook touch my stop and move the hell back up move on oil's part.

thought i'd share this, as a fellow unemployed person i find it hilarious. http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/1206/1211810338meztfkkbq7.jpg plus i'm bored, oil is stalling. update: stopped out at 53.27.

done. stop moved to 53.25. i tend to forget to move stops since i woulda cashed out on that spike already, but i wanna stop being a scalper!

hehe, i used to just trade for scalps and ticks, so i tend to be somewhat impulsive. but if crude is going up from here i don't mind risking a small amount for a large amount.

long 53.30 stop 53.10 target 53.65+ i don't want to miss this next leg up if it's happening. dollar is drifting down, distillates drifting up.

out at 53.47, make up for half of the hit i took earlier. we'll prob hit 54.26 span, idk it's a train right now.

short 53.70 going to add 1 more if it goes above 54. this move is nuts, it can't go up forever

short 52.41 stop 52.65 target 52.05 out at 52.40 with 1 tick profit. this thing looks like it's going up more edit: short 53.05 stop 53.38 update: wth is going on with oil right now?

that was some scary movement. anyone trade the last 30 mins today?

went long at 51.35. holding until 51.75 then i'm done for the day. edit: looks like there could be some action here. i chickened out shorting that huge spike. i'll try to get in 1 more trade. edit2: people are fear buying for the weekend i think

we're hitting a couple days of choppiness now, but yesterday we touched the top of a pretty obvious channel and i think we should be heading down by the end of today, and for next week as well. edit: volume is very low for the day, idk if they're gonna come in this last hour but i want some...

out at 51.75. i hope the last hour is more action filled

ah crap, missed the move down. edit: maybe not, i'm shorting at 52.15. adding 1 more if it goes up.

i'm going to try to get a longer term short this next retracement up. i think the bears are going to win today, the dollar is coming back a little and equities are starting to turn down. also distillates and rb failed to peak through their highs for the past couple hours.

yeah we are trading May now, april expires today. picked up 24c on this last move down. prob should've held it longer but the market has been choppy.
