    Stop-limit at .77 (Jan) to short the LOD

    ("It's not too low to short", repeat: "It's not too low to short", repeat: "It's not... :D)

    :27 filled at .77 (don't like being filled at a extreme in the TICK, but trying to overcome my bias and over-thinking, so...)

    It's in a make-or-break point, so 20 tick stop and if it does break, allowing it to ride.

    :43 stopped out -20 ticks - was tempted to close near be... :(

    Not centered today, having to make a personal decision, but anyway totally flat-footed by oil's rebound - I guess I chose the wrong day <i>not</i> to fade extremes :D

    Hope Herr Kid made a killing.

    What's this??? Napping during RTH??? Posting massive tickage with no visible means of support???

    You're violating the spirit of this fine thread, which encourages:

    Live calls

    Fundamental analysis

    Technical analysis

    Nifty charts

    Detailed instructions how to configure IB in ways you'll never actually use for live trading.

    :D

    (Picaso, I really appreciate that IB stuff, and will figure it out once I get my sim account back to test with.)
