  7. Out 1 at .25 and 1 at .30 now, a little disappointed I did not trade around the action more, had a standing order to cover 2 at .10.

    Using an anticipatory strategy based on some things I've been testing using the 1-min chart, I got short @ 83.57 just before price got to the 83.65 level. I'm pretty sure this was the first anticipatory trade I've ever done live in CL. It turned out really well, but felt strange and scary, not sure I could trade that way without being stressed all the time :eek:

    A 3 ticks miss, man that sucks :(

    Hey, whining in this thread after a winning trade is the exclusive domain of Nodoji :p


    Really nice combo of trades (first long then short - no bias), congrats.

    OK, I didn't whine and am not going to whine. But why is it that I have no problem trading 5 lots on a pure counter-trend trade, then revert back to 1 lot once the trend confirms a reversal? I had 4 trades following the LH put in around noon ET, extracted 80 ticks out of it, and all with 1 lot.
