I thought this thing went up every friday afternoon. The dollar WTI relationship has turned to mush but could it rekindle that spark? Only this time wti will be the dollar's bitch. Pure speculation of course but sometimes it pays off.

I probably won't do anything, if we go back up to 103.75ish I'll short more underlying and then just unwind everything if we go down to the 100 day ma which I guess would be the next major support area. If it goes up to 103.75 and I get more net short and it continues to go up then I still do...

It should coincide with a nice dollar rally so long as bubble ben and Obama stop screwing us up the corn hole.

Obama would get my vote if the next time he is bitching about oil prices he differentiates between manipulators (GS) and speculators. Then the media would be forced to explain at nauseum what he means. Actually I think I'm going to write myself in when I vote or if I knew who piezone was in...

what should I do with these 102 april puts I'm short? If we go down to 102 in the next day or so you guys think we bounce? At this point I'm very slightly short in april and slightly long in may so basically neutral but I would love to just hold on to these short puts and eat some yummy theta.

Well done V! Thought I would check in here since there is finally some action. But not much to talk about. As long as it doesn't go up it should go down I'm liking 104 as a place to take a rest and see what happens.

If we get back up to 106.15.20 area it will be hard to resist a short. Also HVA from yesterday.

Maybe women would be better traders if they were competing against other women? Or Maybe since there aren't many women traders that is why they do better. I thought of this thread while I was sitting in the car yesterday and heard...

I bought coffee again at the close :eek: Didn't everyone already know single serve containers make you waste less coffee? I was going to wait for 160 but there should be some good swings in between here and there. As for oil unless we break down below that big daily TL I'm neutral...

geez I guess everyone is on vacation or waiting for something to happen. Would you say this means the break out that happened on the daily is dead? I'm looking for 104.50 tomorrow and then waiting and seeing.

Are there any good gay male traders? Or would that be the same as a woman? How about lesbians? They would probably suck worse than straight males. Maybe we should start a turtle like training program and see what floats to the top.

wow I guess nobody wants to go into the weekend short! 107.20 got filled sad thing is it's the K2 :( Or did some stupid headline do this? If it did don't tell me I must remain in my bubble. For the time being I'm a deer in the headlights anything above 108.25 will put me out of my misery.

if the DX can hold its hourly TL and get back above 80.20 I'd feel much better shorting this thing. I was waiting to get short at 106.70 on the k2 since last night but I canceled it because it has that "building feeling" I hate fridays and I hate the few days before and after expiration. If...

Way to hold on to her V well done! I haven't read or listened to news all week and I've been crushing it so I have no idea what is going on except for March options expire today and I need this thing to stay above 105 at the close and then it can tank tonight.

It's kind of funny I think it was you a couple weeks ago talking about the spreads and liquidity issues with the QM. Oh well lesson learned. I could have just as easily set a buy stop for an ITM call on the CL but to try to gauge where the price of the underlying will be when the option order...

not as much as I should have been :mad: That QM mess really messed my head up today. Feeling like someone is out to get me. I have never literally been the one holding the bag at the top or bottom of one of those wicks. I'm embarrassed for myself.

Add to it!! Then scale stops above 107.15

Good call this thing is toast!!

Hey people! This is kind of funny, I had a buy stop to trigger a hedge position in the QM at 107.675 and guess what it got filled. But why did QM shoot to .70 and CL only went to 107.02? I've been trading these things for years and have never seen that kind of disparity during the day time...
