OK, I'm going to put in a request here. Please no posting of trades, especially after the fact. If someone wants to call a trade they are "going" to take then that has value for the rest of the thread as others can take a look at it and comment or take the trade as well. But saying I shorted oil an hour ago at 81 and just covered is not adding any value. Mfb this is not directed at you personally, it applies to everyone. Personally I think posting any trades is silly as everyone here is on different time frames but if you want to post a trade you are taking right now or about to take then I guess I can see some value in that. I'm not the moderator of this thread so it's just a request. Thanks.
No worries. It's just a major pet peeve of mine guys calling out trades after the fact. It makes my skin crawl. LOL. I also think it just degrades a thread in general. I try to talk about markets in a forward looking fashion so others can perhaps provide a counter point to a possible trade or possibly take the trade as well. These ideas are more longer term though so as not to clutter the thread. I'm not trying to piss anybody off here, just trust me, it will keep the quality of the thread at a much higher level.
so here is a little tool for market profile, you can drop in your own data to get an idea. Some may find this interesting or bunk.... http://www.mypivots.com/investment-calculators/market-profile-calculator
stopped out. reshort 79.80 as CL came back to the CRIME SCENE after A down. I deal target 79.40 but lunch hour so will manage accordingly as on RUNNER stop out already gave POTENTIAL 30 ticks.
I use one hour weekly confirmations and use a full trading session for the monthly. Some people like to use just the RTH session. Some people like to use just the close. Many ways to skin a cat.
