I hope I'm not going to ruin my 6 point day but I'm going long here soley on the premise that the spot crude market is closed.

Out.
EDIT: I will wait for price action to get above the D-VWAP before trying another long.

Taking one shot at a long here on the premise that we'll see short covering at the end of the day. Maybe too early. We''ll see.

flat. nerves.

I guess I did well today. I from the time I started trading till now there's been about a 7 point range. I've captured 6 points with one contract. From what I can tell that's about as good as the best on this site.
Edit... make that a 10 point range. Oh well. I'll take Junior Varsity.

risking most of the day's profit for a few more ticks.

flat. made it quickly through some fake size on the offer side then hit some real size there.

Story of my trading life. Can't tell the diffence between a worthwhile risk and a stupid decision...

Bottom line. Made some one contract hay today while the sun was shining:

short here on heavy volume hitting the ask without the ask moving up. I hesitated to get short at that moment and market ticked down a few ticks so I did not get the better price.
