#TheStrategyLab (formerly known as #FuturesTrades) is free along with being a serious professional trading chat room for traders using WRB Analysis by itself or merged with other trade methods to improve the performance of those other trade methods regardless if you're a position trader, swing trader or day trader. Therefore, you're welcome to use the chat room to post real-time trades, real-time price action analysis or market commentaries involving stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. In addition, we welcome all traders (beginners, experience, part-time, full-time) that are merging WRB Analysis with their trade methods or using WRB Analysis to develop a better understanding of the price action (market context) they're trading...improving their position size management and trade management after entry.

#TheStrategyLab is primarily designed to be a trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a real time stamp archive of their trades and their market commentaries of each trading day...giving 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 the past. Therefore, if you use our chat room...its highly recommended you post messages that reflect what you see in the price action on your monitors. Your diary (journal).

Also, if you want #TheStrategyLab chat room to be educational for you...please ask questions instead of lurking (not participating in conversations).

Quote:
Chat room only for traders using concepts of WRB Analysis. In addition, traders that use #TheStrategyLab are not required to post trades but if you do post trades...the trades must be clear (not ambiguous) entry price/exit price and position size. Traders that consistently post ambiguous trades will be KICKED (removed) from the chat room.

With that said, thanks for reading the trades, price action analysis 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 market context information that's critical to understanding the price action you're trading. To log into #TheStrategyLab chat room...please follow the instructions here at the FTCHAT Support Forum @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5 or for registered members of the chat room at the TSL Support Forum @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/viewforum.php?f=164

[09:49:17] <@wrbtrader> this low volatility contraction can't last much longer
[09:49:31] <@wrbtrader> Its RARE to see it last to 1000am est

[09:56:16] <@wrbtrader> 3 contracts
[09:56:46] <@wrbtrader> by the way, we're still STUCK inside the low volatility range of yesterday's price action
[09:57:04] <@wrbtrader> Not a good way to start off the regular trading session for today

[10:04:42] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 822.50 --> + 0.4
[10:04:59] <+canaandog> action does not inspire confidence
[10:05:11] <@wrbtrader> resulted in a churn the two trades after the trail pick pocketed :(

[10:14:50] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 821.80 --> - 0.9
[10:15:20] <+canaandog> starting to look like a good day to do something else :(
[10:15:28] <@wrbtrader> :)
[10:15:49] <@wrbtrader> It'll open up big...
[10:16:07] <@wrbtrader> I've never seen it not do such on the last trading day of any month
[10:16:11] <T4n_paper> if i get a few good ones, i'll quit
[10:18:15] <+T4n_paper> cl is trying

[10:25:04] <@wrbtrader> "oil could help"
[10:25:13] <+T4n_paper> :(
[10:25:20] <@wrbtrader> knock on wood
[10:25:27] <@wrbtrader> we're safe now :)
[10:26:46] <+T4n_paper> maybe

[10:37:56] <@wrbtrader> Reminder - Pres. Obama speaks this morning to the Republicans again about the "Fiscal Cliff"...
[10:38:03] <@wrbtrader> Yet, I don't know what time that will be.
[10:42:14] <+T4n_paper> cl parted ways for sure
[10:42:46] <@wrbtrader> Yeah...it started doing that yesterday
[10:42:58] <@wrbtrader> I've seen such before many times towards the end of the month
[10:43:30] <@wrbtrader> Most key markets start doing their own thing...adding to the weird trading conditions at the end of each month
[10:43:42] <@wrbtrader> Worst is the end of the quarter
[10:43:53] <@wrbtrader> Markets are LES insync
[10:44:03] <@wrbtrader> LES = LESS
[10:46:35] <@wrbtrader> Look at it this way, if Oil CL futures and EuroFX 6E futures were doing bad...
[10:46:56] <@wrbtrader> Emini Futures would be down A LOT instead of stuck in this low volatility tight trading range
[10:47:30] <+T4n_paper> yeah
[10:47:46] <+T4n_paper> i just wanted a few good hits, then stop for the day
[10:47:50] <@wrbtrader> Eventually some time today they'll get insync and move strongly together...
[10:47:54] <+T4n_paper> now i'm stuck waiting, ho hum
[10:48:14] <@wrbtrader> Hopefully I haven't called it quits for the day when that happens or on my typical break from trading to rest
[10:49:31] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 820.60 --> - 1.4
[10:49:47] <@wrbtrader> increasing volatility...key markets now insycn
[10:53:19] <@wrbtrader> I wonder if Pres. Obama is speaking now but my realtime news source has nothing
[10:54:08] <+canaandog> I was kind of hoping it would be an extremely short speech :)
[10:55:40] <@wrbtrader> Shorts Emini TF @ 820.30 -> large size
[10:55:44] <@wrbtrader> 5+4
[10:55:48] <+Fleneer> traded my way into the red this morning. Can't win them all
[10:56:25] <@wrbtrader> I saw prior the open and said its going to be a "tough trading day"...
[10:56:34] <@wrbtrader> That's exactly what I've gotten so far :(
[10:56:51] <@wrbtrader> Heck, even with a crystal ball...I couldn't avoid losses :)
[10:59:39] <+Fleneer> I don't have a crystal ball any longer.
[10:59:53] <+Fleneer> I smashed the lieing thing
[11:02:33] <@wrbtrader> I'm days like today I will intentionally hold on to trades LONGER than my usual...
[11:02:41] <@wrbtrader> So far, it hasn't paid off today
[11:03:49] <@wrbtrader> Trading Oil CL futures on days like today when the volatility in Emini TF is weird has payed off nicely this month.
[11:04:07] <@wrbtrader> In contrast, Oil CL futures itself has poor volatility too :(
[11:04:23] <@wrbtrader> reason why I haven't switch to Oil CL futures so far today
[11:07:07] <@wrbtrader> now it looks like a WRB pt1 (shallow) will show up :(
[11:07:14] <@wrbtrader> not worth the effort
[11:08:59] <+T4n_paper> break time...
[11:09:05] <+T4n_paper> looks like i gotta trade all day
[11:10:52] <@wrbtrader> good time for an early lunch
[11:13:24] <@wrbtrader> some markets in a volatility spike while others are not...
[11:16:29] <@wrbtrader> geeesh
[11:16:42] <@wrbtrader> WRB pt1 (shallow)
[11:17:14] <@wrbtrader> will try for a few more ticks beyond the WRB pt1 that just showed up
[11:17:54] <@wrbtrader> increasing volatility now in the Emini futures...
[11:18:35] <@wrbtrader> It was the lagger when the volatility spike was occuring in Euro and Oil futures
[11:20:44] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 818.10 --> + 2.2
[11:20:48] <@wrbtrader> caught a WRB pt2
[11:21:47] <@wrbtrader> I almost did an "early exit" when it was only +0.30 just to go to lunch
[11:22:50] <@wrbtrader> started losing my patience until I saw the volatility spike in EuroFX 6E futures and Oil CL futures that took their prices upwards...
[11:23:08] <@wrbtrader> Yet, at that time there's was a "no reaction" in the Emini Futures.

[14:09:13] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Light Crude Oil CL Long @ 88.92 --> + 0.1
[14:13:17] <@wrbtrader> was hoping the Emini futures would also have a volatility spike that moved prices down or up after the Oil CL futures volatility spike
[14:13:21] <@wrbtrader> didn't happen
[14:14:25] <@wrbtrader> Yet, key markets have been not insync most of the trading day so far...as in each doing their own volatility increases regardless what the others were doing

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

#TheStrategyLab is free and is a serious professional trading chat room involving WRB Analysis in which any trader (position trading, swing trading, day trading) can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries about stocks, 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. Yet, the only requirement is that you want to learn WRB Analysis.

Therefore, we welcome all traders that want to learn about WRB Analysis regardless if they are beginners or experience

The purpose of #TheStrategyLab 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.

Commonly discussed trading instruments from stocks, futures, exchange traded funds and forex currencies:

Image CME Emini Futures EMD, ES and NQ

Image ICE Emini TF Futures (formerly CME ER2)

Image CBOT mini-sized Dow Futures YM

Image Eurex Index Derivatives (futures) DAX and DJ Euro Stoxx50

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 #TheStrategyLab.

Reminder, our Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #TheStrategyLab 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: chat logs saved (timestamp) from Québec, Canada in eastern daylight time
