    Haha, that's the truth. Too bad he'll miss out on all the prop perks like full catered lunches and hour long massages right? Least that's how I heard it's done in Chicago :D

    Where did mfbreakout go? We had some nice strength today in oil. Solid A up. I will say this, if anyone here wants to get long risk assets, product selection is key. I would look to buy crude over the spoos.

    John,

    I know you don't trade intra day, but do you like getting into an A signal against the pivot. I have noticed a very noticeable pattern that has made me avoid these trades. Just wondering what you have found!

    Do you mean buying a failed A down right above the daily pivot?

    I've been an interested lurker on this thread for a while - it's been a very valuable resource for me - thanks to Maverick et al for the insights. I thought this article might be something the followers of the thread might appreciate. I think it's an interesting observation PTJ makes that young traders have difficulty in keeping it simple and focusing on the price action:

    I mean buying an a-up with a pivot range above. Or selling an a down with pivot below

    Yeah, not a good idea. But if price breaks above the pivot and confirms the A up then you can use the bottom of the pivot as your stop.
