    BBIB Sell order at 87.70. Just a sim trade.

    General market may be a bit overbought.

  2. I guess big oil funds will digest FMOC notes and the world Markets reaction to that till this week end with chop range 87 to 89 , then 90s decision will be made next week .

  6. InvestVision,

    sorry for my lack of knowledge, if possible can you please explain what you mean by "5 MM build up"

    did you mean crude inventory report 4.84M

  7. Yes , you got it.

    5 MM = 5 Millions barrels
    buildup = oil in the storagae increase from last week

    Crude stocks rose 4.84 million barrels last week, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration's report, more than the consensus forecast. [EIA/S]

    I have IB as my broker, but charts are terrible.

    Basically I am trying to get good price volume histogram as shown in your charts. I want to still keep IB as my broker , I am ready to pay small montly fee for real time charts&data , appreciate your input on this one.

    Here is one idea I have , let me know my best options for these kind of charts.

    I am planning to try for a demo account from thinkorswim as shown in this URL below.

    https://www.thinkorswim.com/tos/displayPage.tos?webpage=paperMoney

    what I am interested is Volume histogram on PRICE as shown on your charts. It seems I need to subscribe to these pro subscription scripts ?? or can I get voulme profile histogram as part of the Thinkorswim paper money account platform itself ?

    Exit 87.70

    Enter 87.41 - Exit 87.70 = +.29
    Enter 87.21 - Exit 87.70 = +.49
    Enter 87.26 - Exit 87.70 = +.44

    Total = +1.22

    That's the good news. :) The bad news is it was only a sim trade. :)

    I keep checking to see when my meager funds show up in my real account. :)

    Tell me about it. This happens to me frequently: There's a narrow range/chop day (like yesterday) and I become conditioned to scalp.

    But once 86.00 held up this morning via a twin bottom and THEN established higher low support, there was absolutely no reason for me to exit my 86.30 long, because 87.27 (1/24) support was a reasonable initial price target on the day and there were no other significant levels in between.

    In fact, there's this diligent day trader I know who posted some important technical price information early this morning. I should've paid more attention to her :p
