Seeking CL Trader Skype

I'd like to meet another couple of individuals actively watching/trading futures, esp. CL.

Assume we could Skype-audio some, in a way that doesn't interfere with your daily routine.

I'm focused on finding large intraday swings. Am mostly at the computer in US pre-market and main session.

ButtonTrader / IB / MultiCharts are my main tools.

Pm with email or phone or Skype if interested. Am in SF East Bay Area ( Livermore / Pleasanton / Tracy / Modesto ); you could be anywhere.
 
I just don't understand how anyone can concentrate while on phone or Skype if you are day trading? When I use to teach, I would always miss trades by explaining setups, unless you have longer term approaches, never worked for me. Of course if you can't trade this is a way to learn from others.

Main idea here is to build a small community to help find patterns.

Goals include: to use time efficiently and not distract people when they want/need to be attentive; to have more than a couple eyes looking for patterns; and get better clock coverage.

Connection could be by Skype-audio/Skype-text/email/SMS/other. Patterns could be theirs or mine.

With futures, incl. CL, patterns can emerge at any time of day, and need quick action.
 
I don't do Skype but would consider trading as a meet up type thing at some point. Also in the bayarea - of which there aren't a heck of a lot of traders out here.
 
Also in the East Bay. Organized a few meetups with a bunch of HFT guys from SF couple of years back. The meetups died after these guys relocated to Chicago. I'd be open to meeting every other month or so, maybe start something on meetup.com but you'll get a mixed bag of folks..
 
What would be the goal of the meetup?

Question to the folks : suppose you have developed a high probability recurring CL buy condition which leads almost always to a $0.10 increase in the CL, would you let the world know about it?
 
I'd figure just hanging out, brainstorming, learning, whatever. There's no need to give away every setup and in reality retailers aren't going to make a difference against 100 and 1000 lot traders.
