Quote from smilingsynic:

Dangerous practice after 3 PM on trend days. Buyers should wait until after the close.

Esp right now. I have seen at least 2 of these parabolic downmoves in the past month. Selling creating more selling. Love to be the one riding it down this time. I covered to early on the last two.

Pulse, the current 15 min average range is 8.5 pts. Already better than last week's 14 pts.

I hate being stop out due to volty too!

Lawrence, how do you get the average 15min range?

The average range of all RTH 15 minute bar over the past several days. It is that simple.

well i actually moved my stop to trail the position. i placed it too close. i had to use the rest room so bad that i was not thinking straight. i always make mistakes when im in a rush.

THIS SUCKS!!!!!

Have sex with twin college coeds to screw yourself unconscious, then consider if puking is on the agenda.

And then it was really hard to jump back into the position right? Yes i know quite difficult.. I was stopped out at 900 and was crying over the dump down to 870's.

I looked at the bar, and used ATR to confirm it. I didn't see the average over 7. The ATR is around 4.
