I was just wondering when you were going to chime in about the absolute lack of volatility. CL sure has been atypically quiet (especially during RTH) since December.

Agreed. As long at VIX stays at or near these levels, daytrading is going to be very difficult.
I would start thinking about devising a longer-term strategy (longer-term in trading terms, meaning days not intra-day).
CL has become more of a mean-reversion trade since the ban on bank prop desks has eliminated the bigger players. Look at the candle bars on a daily chart...just huge wicks up and down with small bodies = algo heaven.
