Quote from Sarasota:



I actually did that a month ago when we rolled over. I changed my data over on my charts (I now use the continuous contract), but did not adjust to the Sept. contract in TWS. A very frustrating and stupid mistake.

LOL Sarasota!

No worries mate, no Schadenfreude here.

It's a mistake that a lot of futs traders do once...
Or how else would you explain the fact that there's still some chart action going on on rollover day contracts?

With all the things other than the actual price on the chart, it kind of looks like a cluster F@CK to me (haha). What are the circles for? How Do they help you make money?

European traders are probably not entering new positions to get ready for August vacation.

LOL. Sorry about the price - ET's file size limit is a bitch.

Fib circles are very powerful exhaustion resistance/support guides. Price tends to follow them in a ridiculously obedient way.

Basically, they're sort of a combination of fib time vs fib price, like a fibonacci retracement combined with fib time.
However, a fib price/time grid isn't as accurate, in that it doesn't factor in the human greed/fear factor.

The slope of the fib circles, however, does just that.

They're almost a secret tool of mine. I don't know anybody else who uses them, but they work amazingly well. Try it.
