Quote from the1:
The QM/CL is a perfectly good instrument for a newb to lose a lot of money very fast. It's a very difficult instrument to trade that requires a lot of study and analysis. It's definitely tradeable but you can't just jump in and expect to start generating coin.
I won't argue with this, but there's one exception: The Wed crude inventory report
You can test this over time and you will find a pure trading edge:
Sometime during the 10 minutes before the crude inventory report you put on a long or short position. It doesn't matter which. The only important thing is that you DO NOT, under any circumstances, place a protective stop.
You place a limit order to take profit 20-30 ticks from your entry price.
At some point following the report, your profit target will be filled.
I'm pretty sure my record on this strategy is now 16/16
