    Oh, I can already smell them afar. The bears are coming out of their hibernation and they look damn hungry. Better stay out of their sight.

    Now where the hell is my bear costume? :D

  2. Alright, trying something new here (I've been trading since Feb 1, 2011, so really everything is new, but I digress).

    I wanted to short last night based on the daily chart but didn't see a good spot. Tonight I did--so I'm short from 103.53 (at 9:08 central) (sorry, probably violating a thread rule by posting my position late). Stop at 103.48 (probably should leave it at 103.62 so I have two levels of resistance working for me, but thought it might be mentally better on my first go to lock in an essentially break-even position).

    So, we'll see what happens. I may wake up a thousandaire!

    If you post your trade after the fact, just attach a screen shot of your trade with the time stamp.

    I mean, heck, I came in just before dinner, looked at the chart and shorted @ 103.86.

    :p

  4. Taking a long at 103.20, just as likely $1.00 up as $1.00 here and I can take the heat.

  5. Ah, the ol' "pics or it didn't happen," eh? Well, I don't know how to do a screenshot (and you didn't post one either, so we're even). :)

  6. Moved stop to 103.32 for mental health reasons (figured I'd book a little profit--after some more experience I'll let 'er roll).

    And . . . just filled at 103.35 for 18 ticks. Guess we'll see in the morning if accepting the banker's offer was a good deal or not (god what a stupid show).
