#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 and experience) 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 only 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

[08:54:33] <@wrbtrader> Shorts Emini TF @ 788.30 -> small size
[08:54:44] <@wrbtrader> 1+1
[09:01:53] <+Tigerman> Shorts Light Crude Oil CL @ 85.09
[09:02:17] <+Tigerman> Covered all Light Crude Oil CL Short @ 84.97 --> + 0.12
[09:03:00] <+Tigerman> CL in creepy down move
[09:09:53] <+Tigerman> wrbtrader your trade on TF seems have a longer time
[09:10:18] <+Tigerman> when price not move fast in my direction I became very nervous
[09:10:59] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 789.10 --> - 0.8
[09:11:13] <@wrbtrader> [09:09:53] <+Tigerman> wrbtrader your trade on TF seems have a longer time
[09:11:22] <@wrbtrader> That doesn't make sense
[09:11:31] <@wrbtrader> its the pre market
[09:11:41] <@wrbtrader> Its NOT the normal regular session
[09:12:22] <+Tigerman> what doesn t make sense?
[09:12:38] <@wrbtrader> You're confused about the time of day.
[09:12:47] <@wrbtrader> Its the pre market still...everything is slow.
[09:12:57] <+Tigerman> ahhhh
[09:12:59] <@wrbtrader> It's NOT the regular trading session
[09:13:19] <@wrbtrader> Regular session starts @ 0930am est
[09:14:05] <@wrbtrader> volatility is very LOW and slow developing in the pre market
[09:14:18] <@wrbtrader> unless there's an "unusual" key market event
[09:14:21] <+Tigerman> what I mean is that if price not move fast in one direction I no have patience to wait
[09:14:44] <@wrbtrader> Ok...I recommend then for you NOT to trade the pre- market...
[09:14:49] <@wrbtrader> Its too slow for you.
[09:15:08] <+Tigerman> sometimes spike surge for nowhere so I m always alerted
[09:15:41] <+Tigerman> the slow not give me problem itself
[09:16:09] <+Tigerman> it is the fear after a long chop give me a loss as premium :)
[09:16:21] <@wrbtrader> Ok but there was NO chop
[09:16:55] <+Tigerman> whar exactly is chop x your definition?
[09:17:33] <@wrbtrader> Chop = WRB retracing each other with very few intervals between the WRBs
[09:18:23] <+Tigerman> ok
[09:18:24] <@wrbtrader> example...back to back WRBs retracing each other...one UP and the next one DOWN
[09:18:27] <@wrbtrader> That's chop
[09:19:00] <+Tigerman> instead previous price action involve your trade?
[09:19:14] <@wrbtrader> There was NO chop
[09:19:22] <+Tigerman> I mean price retrace up after your entry
[09:19:50] <@wrbtrader> There was NO chop
[09:19:56] <+Tigerman> then go down again ...then up again and you exited
[09:20:15] <@wrbtrader> I exited because of a stop out (stop hit)
[09:20:27] <+Tigerman> price stay inside a previous wrb hg
[09:20:39] <@wrbtrader> I did not exit because of being nervous or impatient.
[09:20:50] <@wrbtrader> Just a normal looking stop out
[09:22:06] <@wrbtrader> Its very RARE for me to see CHOP in the pre market
[09:22:35] <@wrbtrader> It's been a few months since I've seen CHOP in the pre market.
[09:22:53] <@wrbtrader> Most of the price action in the pre market is just low volatility slow moving price action
[09:23:24] <@wrbtrader> Just wait until the 0930am est regular session open...
[09:23:35] <@wrbtrader> You'll see classic CHOP
[09:23:37] <@wrbtrader> :)
[09:24:19] <+Tigerman> ok I wait .... btw that chop I ate it too :)
[09:24:51] <@wrbtrader> You'll see that very active price price action with WRBs retracing each other "very fast" = CHOP
[09:25:07] <@wrbtrader> unless a trend develops
[09:33:07] <@wrbtrader> WRB just retraced another WRB = CHOP
[09:33:38] <@wrbtrader> hopefully it'll open up soon
[09:34:14] <+Tigerman> thanks to clear it

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

#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
