  1. NG is very overbought, although I could see a push to 3.90-4.0 before a big pullback.

    I just went long the NG F-3*G+3*H-J double butterfly @ -0.210.

    - The F/G in this overbullish environment seems underbought.
    - The last time it traded at this price was in fall '00.

    My stop is far though. It can go really wild near expiration.

  3. Can I ask how u are executing this? 2 calendar spreads : F/J and 3 of G/H? Are u using an auto spreader or just 2 ladders of exchange spreads manually?

  5. One more quick q: you are probably grandfathered into Barchart trader for free is that how u are using to chart these? I have CQG Qtrader but data doesn’t go far back and Sierra,my main charting does the difference study charts and cannot our entire symbol
    I could use esignal but never have been happy with it

    I am just using Seasonalgo to chart those spreads( daily ). And I enter them using TT. I used to use Barchart but not anymore.

    Maybe you already know this, but there are free spreadcharts at "spreadcharts.com"

  8. Yes but I am looking for a robust charting platform where I can actually have bars and put on custom indicators on flys and condors

    Nice trade so far, what did you use to come up with that idea ? Was seasonalgo used or just your discretion?

  10. Hello sir!

    If you're serious about spreading the unfortunately CQG is the only way to go (I say unfortunately because of cost). I can see you're using Sierra from another thread - it's a really good platform, but doesn't compare to CQG for spreading.


    You can chart multiple custom spreads and completely pull them apart in all kinds of ways.
