closed out 72.125 total for day for crude: +50, +20, +0. -45, +62.5 Getting better but still need more work identifying better entry points and targets. Still only trading QM, not the full contract, but like I said yesterday, trading the mini's while I am learning I think gives me more time to allow a trade to develop and I don't get distracted by "how much I am losing" since every tick on the full contract is $10.
Nice job! Before switching to the full contract you may want to consider adding 1 or 2 mini contracts as your position moves in the money (which has the downside, however, that you will be stopped out at BE more often). No trades here, missed a couple of fills and just didn't see the market clearly with euro going haywire.
Just in case anyone is interested, TF's RTH range today has been almost double that of ES. Surprisingly, it even beat out CL today, thus far.
