    Ouch! Stopped out at b/e.

    While I have not traded CL consistently, I have a number of years of experience under my belt. I'm under the impression that scaling in and out doesn't work quite as well with CL as with other futures. Any thoughts?

    That really was a terrible stop, wasn't it? This beast is heading back up without me! :mad: :D

    Stopped out.

    I've learned that after three strikes it's usually better to fold shop. Hence, y'all have a nice day.

  8. It is, nat gas is usually on thursday's. But whenever there is a holiday (Columbus day in this instance) it always gets pushed back one day. So today had nat gas and oil at the same time.

    Wow, what a day. I'm not sure if this was the result of a buying climax or due to the breakout of the ascending triangle (which coincides with the yearly high). Either way, it was very impressive as a whole.
