    The flow of the orders is completely different today. Today does not feel the same as the previous up days to me, and I'm a perma bull.

    Okay, now I can see an end to this bull run. Nothing wrong with a little patience!

    At first glance this morning, if we trade down into the 22.50 area, I'll probably be looking to sell. Otherwise, to the moon Alice!

    Hi Josh. When you say 1305 broke down, do you mean in AH, or do you mean right at the open? I think I know where you mean.... Right after the open we got a couple of TICK readings below -600, and price started to push lower. If I remember correctly, you and I both sold at or near the same...

    And to clarify, it should be the close not the high or low of the bar.

    Actually if you have the white line on the chart, the white line should be the close. Agreed that it can be a bit hard to see at times, that's why I coded a simple indicator that will throw a green dot up if the tick closes above 600. In the moment I am just looking for either a green or red...

    1 minute. I have it set up with a one minute bar chart, with a 1 period SMA on it. You could also use a 1 minute line chart if that's your preference, they essentially show the same information. Here's an example of my chart setup:

    Sorry, I meant a close below -600 on the NYSE TICK. I was in a rush most of today, so I may not have flushed out my thoughts well enough.

    I see what you are saying about the developing area of value, however, a move back down to 1310 would essentially be a lower low (violating the low put in around 1315). If we put in a lower low and then continue down into 1305's, that's the tried and true definition of a downtrend. I'm not...

    Yeah man I hope I didn't come off as a jerk or anything, but over the past 6-12 months I really really understand the whole idea of trading what you see. A lot of the usual trading cliches really sound ridiculous until one day they become so obvious and telling that you can't ignore them. You...

    What's up! This thread has been awesome today, you guys are all hilarious and on point this afternoon. The lower highs don't do ANYTHING for me at all. Now a lower low and a close below -600 and we are talking. There is absolutely no reason (for me) to sell until I get that. The...

    +1 I don't understand this approach. People can spend so much time trying to rationalize movement, when they could just BUY THE F*CKING THING and actually make some cash. That could be it for this up move.

    Maybe even more gas in the tank. We are starting to overlap a bit up here, but no hint of weakness yet.

    I agree. Although I don't have any longer term positions, it seems pretty clear what the intended direction has been as of late.

    LOL. Looks like I should have stuck to my guns on the next long. I'm always hesitant to get in after hitting my minimum for the day.
