Looking to buy a single lot at 110 16.

110 21 to 110 22 keeps coming up in various studies as a very important number.

I should have paid closer attention and just bought it at 110 17. No trade so far.

Anyone trading other bonds, besides treasury futures - ie. corp bonds, bond options?
thanks, anna

Probably not on this thread.

So far for today, I will predict that we will hit 110 21 to 110 22 by 1120 CST.

1120 CST has some significance as a possible turning point.

1120 CST looks to be an important time. In addition, we have a 0950 CST cycle sell that has held up well these last couple of weeks.

Note that either of the above two times could be just 3 - 4 tick trades and nothing else.

We are at 110 21 now, so I'm looking to get out soon. I'd like 6 ticks, but I'll take 4 in a heartbeat.

 

[johnpinochet]

My standard target is 4 to 6 ticks. I may not be able to post my exit.

Raising my target to 110 24 to 110 26.

0927 CST Order placed to exit at 110 25. I'm looking for a quick spike that won't last long.
