Eh, kudos, Surto!

Hey even a stopped clock is right 2X a day, I have no clue where these are going! I trade the tape and extremes.

Happy Hoing!

while waiting for ISM I saw that Richard_M is trading currencies now go to his thread do the opposite of what he does you will make $!

Never trading financials again. Can you really believe this? The one day it goes against me I bail. Had I held this position for today you guys would all be sick as to how much money I would be up.

That's trading for you, luckily I had 2 phenominal days scalping yesterday and today, so I'm not that irritated, it's just I left a disguisting amount of money on the table. Least I had my dollar play still working so that could cover the lost I took. 2 handles full from where I dumped my bondos, and 1 and a half handle on the 10yrs. I hate you trading gods!

Man, finally something works right for me! Sold some 118.295's in 10yr last night and finally they worked. I covered them way too early though at 118.085 but tonight im looking for another entry but I don't think we will pop enough for a good RR level.

Its been a tough go shorting this stuff guys!

Good Trading

I'd like to sell the ZB 118 area.

A TWO way picture is starting to develop!
My crystal ball is starting to take a look @ the LONG side.... cautiously....thinking 116 1/2. I will wait for 240min/daily signals to trigger.

ZB 116'090 looks like a level to probe the long side to me.

Below 116 1/2 for sure.

Nice TWO WAY playground today!
Chopped a few on the way up and caught the wave down from 118. ZB is all over the map.

Thanks Ben!

Hope ya'll made a few.

nice job El Surdo, I sold 117.205 the second time up and down covered 13's. Then recently bought 16's and got out at 20.5 the problem is if you are not in on a run you miss it but if you are wrong on it you get f$cked! I sold 117.315 on the way up the first time and puked 118.03 and that sucked since the high was 118.05 and the trade lasted 22 seconds which sucks cause I have to puke it not knowing what will happen! But I made some good trades in ZN and oil today so I am all good.
Good trading!
