0852 CST Out at 114 215. I still think we will pop here to the upside with a target of 114 26 to 114 28, however I'll wait until after 0900 to make another trade. Also, those two numbers and especially 114 28 will make for an excellent place to consider a short.

0847 CST Update Long at 114 200 with a tight stop. Target is 114 25. I can't post real-time so post is late and I won't post my exit real-time. Need to watch market now.

0835 CST Hourly sell signal occured at 0630's 1 hour bar during the break below 115 01. The actual break came at roughly 0602 on the 1 min bar chart. I post as this signal generally speaking can be good for at least 1 day. Obviously it looks like today it will probably be good for the...

Very important point, among many made here in this journal. Learning about measured moves and cycles helped me a lot in deciding when it is worth chasing.

The above post was made at the first line, i.e. 0930. The low was 114 315 at 0940, the second vertical line. I believe it is fair to say I made you 8 - 10 ticks net today, if you took the trade.

The buy signal is on an hourly chart and is usually good for the remainder of the day. Sometimes it lasts for a few days. My only caveat would be that it is possible that this is the extent of our move today, and also that I see bonds still going down to the 110 or even lower area over the...

0930 CST I've been playing today very low key, no more than a 2 lot here and there due to lack of news. As it turns out, today has been a fairly solid day to the upside. I've only scalped longs today, and I wanted to mention that the break through 114 24 gave me a major buy signal on my...

If a break of the low comes I will take half off at 113 24. For the record, it takes up a lot of typing to keep mentioning that price will determine what I do, so FYI, price determines if I exit all at a kiss of the low, or hold on for 113 24 or 113 16 etc.

At a minimum my target is 113 28, however the reason for this short is that I believe 113 16 is a possibility today. Not a given, but definitely a possibility. Of course price behaviour at key levels determines everything.

1053 CST This post is well into my trading day. Obviously I've been shorting all day. Just an FYI that I'm short now again at 113 31 and I'll short up through 114 05 or so. Risk is through 114 08. If you have the stomach, you could hold through there.

0952 CST People PM me all of the time asking why I don't post anymore. Take a look at a 1 min of the ZB and you'll know. While I was rambling here, we had another buy entry at 114 14 to 114 15 (0944 CST). You could have gotten out just now with 114 185 or held on for a retest of the...

Since about 1530 CST yesterday, my hourly system gave a buy signal. This signal usually lasts 24 to 72 hours. So, I assume for the rest of today and Friday, I would probably look to buy at a solid price, i.e. 114 10 or 114 08. My longer term outlook (days/weeks) is still short and if price...

OK, done for the day. These last two pullback trades only gave me 1 - 2 ticks. That tells me that I need to stop. As I said, the trade of the day was at 0904. These last trades were just scalps. Good trading!

0935 CST OK first target just about reached. I may pull the plug on all. Will start with 1/4 to 1/2.

0933 CST The nature of these type of trades (pullbacks) is they look weak when you initiate. Watch carefully. The trade of the day was around 0904 CST going long at 114 08 - 114 10.

Target is at least 114 18 and then 114 20.

0928 CST Bought some at 114 16 and 114 150

0924 CST That was only good for 1 - 2 ticks. Now looking for another buy around 114 16 or better.

0922 CST I bought single lots all the way through 0920 CST looking for a quick scalp retest of high. Looks like it is too late to buy more. Only looking for a kiss of high.

Since about 0900 you've been able to simply short the lower end of a rectangular S/R on a 1 minute to 3 minute chart of the ZB. So, now at 1033 what do we do? Go for another short or wait? I've already bagged my limit for today so I may just stand aside. FWIW, I still think 114 00 is a...
