sweet, good job ammo hanging tough. i am still struggling with the stupid trades like i did at 86.25 and then pulling offers like my 98.5 and placing it at 99.5 when it did not hit the first time.

good luck tomorrow, should be a nice green day if this pressure holds into the open.
said you will be waking at 3 am, there are plenty of firms out there who hir e folks to just trade 10pm til 7am cst,you can watch the micro action and guess the bias,just watch the vol spikes,regardless of your position,and you can see whether they are waiting for bids/offers to reduce/add ,and it gives you a clue as to which way they are overweighted,combine that with macro and you have an edge..tonites not obvious although it was leaning for the bears til that questionable vol spike

biological clock did not get me up this time. had bid in at 82 to reduce more. oh well, expected the latest trend to hold so it was long shot being full atr from overnight high. the way it looks now, 1405 is possible which happens to be full atr from overnight low and upper end of the channel.

never followed volume much but will add that in to decision making. thanks for info.
