CL Redux

Quote from Daxspreader:

Short Brent 121.98 (Was gonna short CL, but I think that if we go down, then Brent will lead)

But aren't you then shorting the strongest one? Not that I should be giving anyone advice, anyhow :D
 
Quote from InvestVision:


KID, DAX any experiences on RBOB providing some proxy to crude OIL on short time frames ( like Brent ) .

Ive never looked at RBOB as a proxy, but it could be interesting. I have a few friends that trade Crude spreads, and the crack spreads, and they use heating oil, gasoil, crude, and natural gas (create some kind of custom synthetic basket) before putting on large position trades, which seems to be working well for them.

Although I dont know the specific mechanics of the trade, im not sure if they look for divergence (i.e. leaders/follwers) or if they look for the whole energy complex to be at critical levels before buying/selling.

Interesting approach though :cool:
 
You are right in general you do short the weak of two
But Brent in last two sessions providing leadership in both directions literally, so DAX actions are justified :p

Libyan rebels 'disappointed' by NATO
Rebel commander says coalition forces are not doing enough to protect civilians, as Gaddafi's forces take key oil town.</B>

Younis said that rebel forces were providing NATO with the coordinates_where pro-Gaddafi forces were present, but they were slow to act, allowing the forces to "enter a city, kill everybody, burn it down and then leave the city" before any action was taken.

He also complained that NATO was not allowing the opposition to use the MiG fighter aircraft and helicopters that it had repaired._

"NATO is moving very slowly, allowing Gaddafi forces to advance ... NATO has become our problem," he said.

Earlier in the day, Brigadier General Mark van Uhm, NATO's chief of allied operations, said_that NATO's new "number one priority" was the western town of Misurata, which Younis said was being inadequately protected.

"Misurata is a number one priority because of the situation on the ground over there. We have confirmation that in Misurata tanks are being dispersed, being hidden, [and] humans being used as shields in order to prevent NATO sorties to identify targets," he said.

Van Uhm said that Gaddafi's troops have been adjusting their tactics to deal with the threat from coalition airstrikes, travelling in trucks and light vehicles to the front line and hiding their tanks and armoured vehicles from sight.

Oh, and I was poking around youtube for "live CL trades", and caught wind of a great channel, where this guy has been posting his trades that are based off of his broker telling him what to do. All the entries are based on PA and volume, and they are killer. Very cool, and very simple. No, I don't know this guy, and I have no affiliation with the mystery broker either.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
I love watching trading videos, and this guy is awesome! Seems genuine as well, not like loads of the scammy vids on youtube.

I wonder how he does it!
The guy commentating is the video uploaders broker. I wonder if he, as a broker, has access to information that us guys aren't privvy too which helps him make his awesome trade calls. Seems to make loads of ticks nearly every single day.
