  2. ok we just got another sell signal on the .5. I would not take this signal. The reason is we have a long column on the .75 will no pullback, and the 1.0 is very close to support as well. It still may turn into a trade, but I would need a pullback on the .75 and then a new sell signal, or a sell signal on the 1.0. I want at least two charts with sell signals, and preferably three.

  3. OK we have two potential trades that could occur.

    We could have a 2 contract failed double bottom on the green chart. We would place an order right now at 1332.

    We would also place a sell order at 1328.75 because the .5 will trigger a sell at 1329 and the .75 will trigger at 1328.25
