    You assume they are teaching something difficult. They are not.
    All of what they teach is grade school simple.

    I'll just say this,
    I realise some have a negative attitude towards
    trading education. I bet none of them ever use
    the COT report, bond yields or the dollar index.
    All of which are helpful in determing trend
    strenght/continuation and market reversals
    Commericals (smart money) sentiment /open interest
    at the end of the month, quarterly and before every new
    contract rollover is an indicator. ( which is in the COT)

    Just because we as retail traders are considered
    "dumb money", does not mean we have to stay dumb!

    What symbol (CL?), timeframe and day?

    Basic to include when posting a chart pic while asking for comments.

    Yeah, waiting for confirmation is expensive. Think about it, if market always moved AND provided liquidity at the same time then everybody would be a millionaire by just following the move. So, the market offsets this by ranging every now and then.

    Schizo gave some good hints, though.

    I meant when specifically do those bars cover? Also are those one minute, 5 minute bars, etc?
