    :D When I moved into this home many of my friends brought plants...one friend brought 12 MJ plants in a milk crate, of which 7 turned out to be female. They are really quite lovely! I had never grown them, but I must say they are a very cool plant. My Dad came over the summer--he's 80 something--and we had a big chuckle! I am not 100% sure what to do with them, but I am sure someone around here can help! Sorry about the loss today but of course that's trading; accept losses easily. I am over in a TF trade I've had on since 7:41:30 at 702.1 which refuses to die. I think I am getting close to an out now. As I have mentioned before, maybe when oil is not trending find something that is. Trading both does not make you unfaithful, you know...:D

    Here's a pic of the TF trade, pretty easy to manage while one waits for the crude breakout from cosolidation.

    Just out at 706.4. Crude still in consolidation.... so close to breaking.

    NoDoji, I am looking at the chart of crude right now; I am thinking I should be long. Are you? I tend to wait for a clear break of the range, but I am thinking looking at the 15 chart that a break above .89 was really the trade, so I am guessing you are long at .90, with now a be stop?

    sim

    filled long at .13

    10 tick stop tightened to 84.06 (7 ticks, low of 5' bar)

    Still waiting...

    (Thanks, Gov, once it moves 20 ticks in my favor I always move the stop to be, but otherwise I try to place it wherever it makes sense; once it moves 40 ticks in my favor, I start to look for places to trail the stop and/or take profit).

    :09 stop-limit to add to the position at .31

    If Euro, ES and CL break (as in <i>really</i> break) at the same time, target 84.80

    :11 filled at .31, stop to be at .23 avg

    Hmmm... ES and euro better hurry to the party or this has no future.

    :13 stopped out at be, pity, would have cut it some slack (as in total risk < 20 ticks or <10 ticks/car, if euro and ES had been kissing the HOD and/or gold had been making a comeback).

    Nice! on a long breakout bar I tend to leave the stop there, rather than moving it to the mid slash area, just what I do, not advice.

    Edit: :59 in at 10, stop at .05, target new hod

    Esit, out .33, going for lunch.

    Yeah, but thanks for leaving thereby making it break topside, allowing us to make a few bucks. I personally got 23 ticks out of it, thank you!

    Now where's that Dennis Leary CD....

  10. Yeah - I actually went to my dentist (talk about risk aversion) to set up another appointment and drop off some stuff :)
