#FuturesTrades is free along with being a serious professional trading chat room and any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. Further, although our chat room is smaller than the other popular chat rooms...we are the most active chat room in posting trades or market commentaries involving futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies in comparison to other free chat rooms.

Quote:
#FuturesTrades chat room is not a signal calling chat room even though some members post real-time trades or real-time price action analysis. Therefore, do not attempt to mimic the trades of other members. Also, if we suspect you've joined #FuturesTrades to try to use it as a signal calling chat room in an effort to piggy back (mimic) someone's trades, you will be banned...no exceptions.

#FuturesTrades is designed to be a trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a real time stamp archive of trades and market commentaries of each trading day and this gives them a better understanding of their broker statements from one trade to the next trade when they review their performance numbers on any given trading day. In addition, we welcome all traders with their own methods or different perspective of the markets to help keep the chat room diversified...posting trades or market commentaries about the price action on their monitors.

With that said, thanks for reading the trades or market commentaries that's below and we highly recommend you make reading of the logs a part of your trading routine because you will sometimes find useful trade information not discussed anywhere else online nor in any books if you're not interested in scheduling one on one (private) real-time price action only trading education discussions. To gain access to #FuturesTrades chat room...please follow the instructions @ FTCHAT Support Forum * http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5

[11:29:18] <@wrbtrader> Price action still stuck in the low volatility tight trading range....
[11:29:51] <@wrbtrader> Starting to look more and more like the bets were placed in the overnight trading session and folks are content to leave things as they are until the FOMC announcement
[11:30:41] <+wave1> looks like low selling it is buy programs so far
[11:34:50] <@wrbtrader> Shorts Emini TF @ 816.40 -> medium size
[11:35:04] <@wrbtrader> intuition
[11:35:27] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 816.30 --> + 0.1

[11:36:12] <@wrbtrader> Long Emini TF @ 816.60 -> medium size
[11:36:20] <@wrbtrader> 2+2
[11:36:23] <@wrbtrader> intuition
[11:36:46] <@wrbtrader> prior short should have been a Long position @ 816.40
[11:37:26] <+wave1> y S are not working
[11:38:00] <@wrbtrader> Yep and its still in Creeper Up Movement
[11:38:30] <@wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached and above the first interval of the regular session trading day.
[11:38:36] <@wrbtrader> Key breakout
[11:39:20] <@wrbtrader> tighten trail to the high of the first interval
[11:39:54] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 817.40 --> + 0.8
[11:40:15] <@wrbtrader> stop too obvious for the stop collectors :(
[11:40:39] <@wrbtrader> still a WRB pt1 exit
[11:45:07] <+wave1> vn N gutsy but right trade
[11:51:37] <@wrbtrader> snap back down into the prior tough trading area...on a big volatility spike...strange
[11:52:59] <+wave1> nq no drop
[11:53:02] <+wave1> at all
[11:55:19] <@wrbtrader> same with Emini ES
[12:01:15] <@wrbtrader> Light Crude Oil CL futures still a bottle rocket since 10am est
[12:03:59] <@wrbtrader> Oil CL futures and EuroFX 6E futures have finally started showing some weakness after their strong continuation price action upwards
[12:15:44] <ItalianSharp> ES got dangerously close to 1381sh, which is a very key resistance area from 2008. I don't know if going into FOMC that area will be tested, but as far as i am concerned I am done with longs for today. Since I am not taking shorts for the moment, I am done for the day.
[12:21:30] <@wrbtrader> Oil CL futures volatility spike in its current Creeper Up Movement
[12:31:37] <@wrbtrader> In the past (before 2008)...the #FuturesTrades chat room would fill up with +35 members on FOMC Announcement day.
[12:32:17] <@wrbtrader> Yet, very few (1 - 3 members) would post a single market commentary and/or trade
[12:32:44] <+wave1> fomc always has been dengrous for me
[12:32:50] <@wrbtrader> I never understood why folks would hang out in these chat rooms or log in on special days and then NOT SAY A SINGLE WORD.
[12:33:04] <@wrbtrader> :)
[12:33:11] <+wave1> so leave it aside and just watch too many erratic movement
[12:33:25] <@wrbtrader> wave1...they don't have to trade it.
[12:33:51] <@wrbtrader> Heck...just saying they're not trading at all is better than NOT SAYING A SINGLE WORD :)
[12:33:58] <+wave1> lol yes
[12:34:32] <+wave1> folks can say a few words but sometimes i understand some cant trade & post
[12:35:12] <@wrbtrader> I'm just perplexed why it is HARD for someone to say "price noise", "price at support", "price at resistance"...anything
[12:35:27] <+wave1> that is true
[12:35:52] <+wave1> es may get to 81-83 ext
[12:36:01] <+wave1> fib ext
[12:36:28] <+wave1> up/down vol all green today

[12:37:33] <+wave1> eur finally caught the ES move too
[12:37:43] <+wave1> move above the 3100 area
[12:43:26] <@wrbtrader> Treasury Futures traders and the Yield watchers: "Treasury Yields hit 2012 high before auction" @ http://www.marketwatch.com/story/treasu ... atest_news
[12:44:15] <+wave1> yup bonds on tear if the rates increase they will suffer big time
[12:45:01] <+wave1> but little danger theer bernacke have no plans for that

[12:50:45] <+Tigerman> just a comment on bonds yield
[12:51:21] <+Tigerman> simply 2% x 10y and less than 1% x 5y is ridiculos :)
[12:51:48] <+Tigerman> inflation destroy your capital :(
[12:52:33] <+Tigerman> I plan to put on a carry trade

[14:16:53] <@wrbtrader> I don't trade differently because of a FOMC Announcement
[14:16:57] <@wrbtrader> I stick to the trading plan
[14:17:45] <+StormwolfT> price can gap. why not use small size instead
[14:18:01] <@wrbtrader> I did lower my size...maybe you didn't notice it
[14:19:03] <@wrbtrader> Long Emini TF @ 818.50 -> medium size
[14:19:35] <@wrbtrader> now trying to go range bound
[14:19:46] <@wrbtrader> 2+2
[14:20:29] <@wrbtrader> FED no change in rates but it doesn't matter what they say...
[14:20:43] <@wrbtrader> What matters is that it produces "increasing volatility"
[14:21:01] <@wrbtrader> To prevent trading in low volatility crap
[14:21:43] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 819.40 --> + 0.9
[14:21:47] <@wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[14:22:22] <+wave1> back
[14:23:48] <+wave1> S 78 es
[14:23:53] <+wave1> 79

[14:29:32] <+wave1> out +2
[14:34:38] <@wrbtrader> lets see if price gets sucked back down again through the 817.60 price area
[14:34:53] <@wrbtrader> if it does...it should hold this time
[14:40:22] <@wrbtrader> Emini TF likes this price area since 12noon est...it's spent a lot of time here
[14:40:43] <@wrbtrader> volatility contraction showing up
[14:41:31] <+wave1> range on es 1.5 pt
[14:44:49] <@wrbtrader> This has become the norm for the past few years of FOMC Announcement...
[14:45:13] <@wrbtrader> not a lot of volatility and they quickly go into volatility contraction
[14:45:40] <@wrbtrader> Meant...the infamous volatility spikes that we use to see before 2008 have long gone...
[14:45:58] <+wave1> on fomc day?
[14:45:59] <@wrbtrader> The norm now is what we see happening today since 2pm est

[14:46:34] <@wrbtrader> Yep...years ago you didn't dare push size
[14:46:56] <@wrbtrader> Shorts Emini TF @ 817.30 -> medium size
[14:47:13] <@wrbtrader> intuition

[14:49:47] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 817.20 --> + 0.1

[15:06:45] <@wrbtrader> 2+2
[15:08:35] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 820.80 --> + 0.4
[15:08:52] <@wrbtrader> I don't have enough room to manage any "wiggle" retracement
[15:09:33] <@wrbtrader> that breakout started too far below the recent reaction high and then closed above the reaction high as a breakout
[15:10:52] <@wrbtrader> Had it been smaller...would have been able to better manage the trade
[15:10:52] <+wave1> later guys got to leave ty all
[15:11:53] <@wrbtrader> If the volatility contraction can hold...it'll setup a continuation of the Creeper Movement
[15:13:13] <@wrbtrader> Long Emini TF @ 820.90 -> small size

-------------------------

#FuturesTrades is free and is a serious professional trading chat room in which any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. Simply, you don't need to be a client of TheStrategyLab.com to use the chat room nor do you need to be a price action only trader (no indicators) because some members use indicators while others do not.

Therefore, we welcome all traders with their own trade signal methods, different perspective of the markets and different experience levels. To gain access to #FuturesTrades...please follow the instructions at the below link.

http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5

The purpose of #FuturesTrades is that it's designed to be a trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a time stamp archive of trades and market commentaries of each trading day so that they can better understand their broker statements from one trade to the next trade when they review their performance numbers on any given trading day.

Further, members are not obligated to educate nor help other members but members are encourage to ask questions about any trades or market commentaries that's posted by others because sometimes the answers contains useful trading tips.

In addition, our primary job in the free chat room is to moderate the room (keep the peace) because with so many members using different trade signal methods along with different opinions about the market...debates or arguments can easily flare up without moderating. In addition, our presence in the chat room is to ensure it's a spam free chat room during trading although these archived chat logs may contain advertisements for guest visitors.

Also, to prevent the usual mix-up about our different chat rooms, most of our fee-base clients do not use chat rooms just like most retail traders do not use chat rooms. Yet, the few clients that do use chat rooms, our fee-base clients are discussing market analysis or price action only trade signals via concepts from our strategies in the private chat rooms called #VolatilityTradingTSL or #SwingTradingTSL and they're not allowed to do such in #FuturesTrades.

Reminder, our Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #FuturesTrades is a serious professional trading chat room and we expect members to act professional. Also, these logs may have been edited (rarely) to remove any messages that a member has complained to me via private message that they consider a particular commentary to be inappropriate, offending or too far in the off topic area that's a distraction when the commentary was posted.

Note: All logs regardless to their location at TheStrategyLab.com website are eastern standard time.
