Maybe everyone else is partying at NoDoji's and she didn't invite us. Must have been an unintentional oversight.Quote from cherubian:
Ya, pretty quiet in here today indeed. Not much action yet for me today in CL.


Wrong thread, but we've been discussing staying in trades. I got 3 points off the TF rebound but left 9 more on the table. Great entry but way too early of an exit. Working on what I've been emphasizing. A work in progress. Hundreds are good. Thousands are better.Quote from BCE:
Got 3 points x2 off of TF on that rally.

Thanks for the link.Quote from schizo:
I find my time better spent watching Aljazeera than the market. Some serious action taking place on the street in Egypt.
PS. Free english version of Aljazeera can be watched via LiveStation.com.
Well there's obviously been a lot of movement today. I'm just talking in general terms mostly. But to be more specific about one is CL has held support around 90 and slightly above today and there was resistance just under 91, say 90.80 to 91. So buying support and then shorting resistance would have worked well so far. I'm talking about the last 3 1/2 hrs. But I haven't been doing a million trades as I'm just observing mainly and trying some sim trades to learn the personality of these contracts, CL and QM.Quote from cherubian:
Cool, would be interested to know what opportunities you saw if you feel like sharing, if not totally understandable.![]()

Yeah I've had a million distractions today too. Kind of hard to trade well and not be totally focused on that.Quote from cherubian:
Ah I see. I've been distracted today so have missed quite a few good trades. had a few pinbars, tweesers, and doji's on the 5m which would have worked well had I been around to grab them. Oh well. We'll see how this current 5min pinbar turns out, looks weak because we've been chopping around quite a bit, but in a news driven environment, you never know...
Been working on a report I need to turn in later this afternoon. Let's see what we get here.
