<NihabaAshi> Between now and the first week of January...I'll mainly only trade on days that have key economic reports. 10:54

<szubaark_> yeah lets hope we get some WRB Bullish Harami signals this week.

* RacerX sets mode: +v szubaark_

<NihabaAshi> Those are the trading days that will most likely produce some good volatility.

<NihabaAshi> Short ES @ 1272.00 -> small size 13:51

That little test not going so well :( 13:53

<GoodMood> what did you see, marc 13:54

<NihabaAshi> Trying something new that's not looking so hot that involves EuroFX and the Eminis on none key economic report days. 13:55

<GoodMood> aha

<NihabaAshi> Exited all ES Long @ 1273.25 -> -1.25 13:56

It's almost 2pm est and I doubt I'll get any trade signals today with this low volatility. 14:00

Short ES @ 1272.25 -> small size 14:01

<danshirley> somthin tells me the sandy claws rally is dead

<NihabaAshi> Danshirley...its usually over by the 15th and just chops for the remainder of the year although there has been a few surprises in a few of the past Xmas rallies. 14:02

<GoodMood> are xmas rallies always on the long side ? 14:03

<jbraswell> Covered all ES Short @ 1273.50 --> 0 14:04

<NihabaAshi> GoodMood...there's really no Xmas rally...

Instead its a Year End rally that starts around late Oct and continues strongly into mid November and then has a few nice little uptrends by mid December. 14:05

Thus, the so called Xmas rally is really part of the Year End Rally "seasonality" that starts late October. 14:06

<GoodMood> i've read about your Oct,26th to Nov,14th bias ...

<NihabaAshi> Yep...market hasn't been wrong since 1990.

Hard to ignore that type of seasonality fact. 14:07

<GoodMood> true

<danshirley> U.S. Dec. homebuilders' index falls to 57 vs 61 in Nov. 14:08

<jbraswell> Long ES @ 1272.50 14:09

<NihabaAshi> I have a stop at 1273.00

Not willing to let a few intuition trades turn into a loss too big on a low volatile trading day. 14:10

Picked off again :( 14:11

Tues, Weds, Thurs and Friday will be better trading days so don't let a day like today determine the rest of the week for you. 14:12

Lots of good data movers being released the remainder of the week.

Stop/Loss Hit on ES Long @ 1273.00 -> -0.75 14:14

Actually that was a Short.

Short ES @ 1271.25 -> medium size 14:17

SP pushed down hard first...don't see that too often. 14:18

<jbraswell> Exited all ES Long @ 1270.25 --> - 2.25

<TLTrader> Long YM @ 10902 -> small size 14:21

* RacerX sets mode: +v TLTrader

<TLTrader> probably a scalp

* RacerX sets mode: +v cwb

<NihabaAshi> Why are you here...I heard you no longer trade futures ???

<cwb> ah yeah, I watch the futures while trading though :)

futures is my leading indicator 14:25

<TLTrader> Exited all YM Long @ 10905 --> + 3

<NihabaAshi> Are yo trading futures or not ???

My point...what value can you add to the room without posting any trades due to the rule that we all have to post trades . 14:26

<cwb> good point, not posting trades so I shouldn't be here :D I'll stay in eminifutures

<TLTrader> may try another long around YM 10882 if we get there 14:27

<NihabaAshi> Short ES @ 1270.00 -> medium size 14:28

<codehead> i prolly won't be posting trades till i get a new Mac after having my others stolen, fwiw

* RacerX sets mode: +v codehead

<codehead> and dammit, i'll have to rewrite the trading macros i wrote for it, since my backups got stolen 14:29

posting macros

<NihabaAshi> I'm now Bearish Bias on the trend but can't seem to stay in on these trades for any decent price movement...keep getting shaken out :(

<codehead> i've only done one futs trade todqay anyway, YM for 4 ticks a few mins ago

<substanz> Long YM @ 10888 «« paper »»

* RacerX sets mode: +v substanz

<TLTrader> Long YM @ 10883 -> small size 14:30

<NihabaAshi> Exited 1/2 ES Short @ 1268.75 -> +1.25 14:31

I'm using a beta (new) trade posting script and it doesn't do my stops due to a coding error... 14:32

<TLTrader> Exited all YM Long @ 10890 --> + 7

<NihabaAshi> Thus, I have a stop at 1270.00 on my remainderes. 14:33

<codehead> ER seems to be trying to print countertrend (bounce) signals better than ES YM

<NihabaAshi> :(

Stop Loss Hit on ES Short (remainders) @ 1270.00 -> +0.00 14:35

<substanz> Exited all YM Long @ 10894 --> + 6 «« paper »» 14:37

<NihabaAshi> I'm not trading with much today...my max is 6 contracts on a large size. 14:39

Just don't think I'll get any good trade signals to really sink my teeth into anything. 14:40

Will save the "aggressive" trading for tomorrow thru Friday when some very important key economic data is being released.

<GoodMood> Marc: On YM, 5min is this a WRB Bullish Harami pattern ???

PS: I use CME-times (13:00, 13:05, 13:10 ...) 14:41

<NihabaAshi> Yes 14:42

Thanks...good eye.

<GoodMood> thx

<NihabaAshi> Long ES @ 1242.00 -> small size

Incorrect script... 14:43

<codehead> cci on YM set up for potential trendline break (up) with green lsma

on 5 min

<NihabaAshi> Long YM @ 10896.00 -> small size 14:44

<substanz> Shorts YM @ 10900 «« paper »» 14:48

<NihabaAshi> I now have a breakeven trailing stop via it testing 10901.00 and will leave the trade alone.

<codehead> long ER 677.40 <paper> 14:50

<NihabaAshi> First real trade signal of the day and it almost snuck by me because I was in a pm conversation with coolweb :(

Exited all YM Long @ 10898.00 -> +2 14:53

<codehead> stop on ER 676.80 <paper> 14:54

<joereal> Shorts ES @ 1270.00 «« paper »» 14:56

* RacerX sets mode: +v joereal

<NihabaAshi> Oh well...it was a good try of a Long position especially when my trend analysis is BEARISH. 14:57

<substanz> Covered all YM Short @ 10893 --> + 7 «« paper »»

<NihabaAshi> Thus, not reaching a pt1 via counter-trend trading wasn't uncommon.

<codehead> stopped out ER long -.6 15:03

ER printed a ghost on the 3 min or short on that downturn 15:05

for short

bond signal is long 15:06

bullish

that's for overnight/morning

long ER 676.10, stop 675.70 15:07

typed it more timely, but in wrong room 15:08

stopped out -.4 <paper> 15:11

<togglex> long er2 675.7 stop 675.3 15:12

my turn to catch knives :)

<joereal> Covered all ES Short @ 1267.75 --> + 2.25 «« paper »»

<togglex> close long er2 676.2 +0.5 15:13

<codehead> long ER 676.00 <paper> 15:15

target 678, but half target 677 15:22

<codehead> i got pulled away, so i'll take -.5 on my ER paper trade here, but technically the bond close sez be long the close 15:49

should push up, but i really would have stopped out here before on the move down if i was around 15:50

so i'll print the loss

nice ER bounce 16:00

<GoodMood> good night @ all ! 16:01

<codehead> nite

<NihabaAshi> Today was a creeper downtrend from what I could tell during the 3 hours I was watching the market on and off. 17:20

Should be some good trading tomorrow and i will be looking to position trade via trying to establish a position early between 0830am - 0930am est 17:21

Hopefully I can hold that position all day because I don't like to do too much trading between Dec 15th and the last trading day of the year.

<NihabaAshi>	Today was a creeper downtrend from what I could tell during the 3 hours I was watching the market on and off.	17:20
	Should be some good trading tomorrow and i will be looking to position trade via trying to establish a position early between 0830am - 0930am est	17:21
	Hopefully I can hold that position all day because I don't like to do too much trading between Dec 15th and the last trading day of the year.
