    I have to agree.. I am still long nat gas and it seems to be building a nice base with an inverted H&S... however it is taking to long. I am looking for a move to 11.50-12 on the futures market but I may ditch the position if it does not breakout soon. It has an explosive ta structure with a...

    Impressive memory my friend.. ya I cant seem to find the post but I dont want to bother looking to long for it. But yes, I did in fact take that long on the 5th of may 07 that I talked about and was stopped out the next day! Reentered long on may 11th around 61.50 and rode that baby up till...

    covering half of my short line if we break the high of the first 15 minute bar by 2 ticks. Until then letting it ride.

    At this point in time 1620 is 80 pts away while 1370 is 170 pts away...... I may be confident in my trading abilities.. but not stupid. Odds are that we break 1620 before 1370.... so I wont make a wager on that. However, the best trade is short vs long in terms of probabilities and most...

    I recommend taking some profits on any stocks or long positions here.. odds are we move below 1490. It can still go higher but not as high of a probability. Better taking some off and not letting a winner turn into a loser.
