  3. ooops, took a small stop only to see price go in my direction. lol.......rollover tomorrow as I have been mentioning often so I am trading with caution. More interested at range extremes for now but not in all that much of a hurry to trade. Feels like a crap shoot at this point

    I'd rather be surfing:cool:

  4. possible long off the bot of range and short off the top of the range. We still have a potential gap to fill but we had a nice pre mkt move up so which way has the higher probabilities? Price attempted a move down but could only get as far as yest high.

    I'm leaving this crap alone for now.

  5. I was Long at 73.25 and got out at BE...for some reason lol.
    Now I'm short at 77.25 ...just in front of my 78 # I was looking at this AM. CT scalp for 1 point on totals position is what I'm looking for

  6. closed position for +1 pt. Appears to be a lack of selling interest on recent attempts at pullbacks, so I am looking for a possible Long in the 75 area...I would prefer 73.5 area though. if we can't pull back far enough I will enter on the way up

  7. I missed a long on the way up at 76. Doesn't look like I would have closed 1/2 my position at 77 so I cxl my buy order and looking for lower prices to get long (73.5 area)

  10. the 73.75 area was tested around 12:06 est but I had cxl my order and took a break. the 69-70 area below might be interesting and below that it's 67. All of this depends on PA when when/if these levels are reached. I might be done for the day tho.

    I'll check back around 2PM and see if things are getting better , although I'm not really expecting much.

    Usually the mkt is thin and range bound early and it's the PM session that gets a little mental but that's trading for ya. Just my opinion
