No chart today. I working on setting my my new Ninjatrader platform. I did take one MES trade (long) at the close of 2903 that is at -$250ish as of this post. I am still bullish, but will bail if I see further weakness. No spread trade.

My CL calls are about the same, with some profits.

Haven't started mine yet, still setting up account. I found your news trade posts interesting, thanks for posting those.

A very good day for both the MES and CL options. Mostly due to Trump/China news. I had taken the CL last week with options as there was a good set up on the CL daily chart. I also thought it what I would consider "oversold." The MES was due to Axis line support at 2903 ( Close above on the 20m chart). I got stubborn with that position and it did take of heat. My logic was the news was so negative and non stop from China trade, it must be going back soon. Also the fact that I was trading micro, I can stay with my trade logic/haunch longer. I also got lucky! Too bad my AAPL options last week did not have few more days to expire!

Here are my captures for all trades. I am using NT8 now. but will show IB charts at times as well. Again thank you @bigmike and those who voted for me last month.







I am up $2334 for the day and may take another ( Hong Kong news) trade later. Some stress in the AM as my MES was taking additional heat, but a good and easy trading day.

I did not trade this one, but just as an example from this morning. This one was also technically sound, since it was a wide spread, closing at the highs, with highest volume of the day.

Okay one last news trade and I am done for the day. I am starting to feel confident; a recipe for disaster.





Additional +$23 for the day.
