##TheStrategyLab (located on the Freenode IRC network) is free along with being a serious professional trading chat room for traders using WRB Analysis (e.g. Contracting Volatility, WRB, WRB Hidden GAP, WRB Zone, WRB profit targets, Key Market Events) 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 ask questions about WRB Analysis, post real-time price action trading analysis involving WRB Analysis merged with your own trade methods, post real-time trades or talk about general market issues impacting today's price action 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 help develop a better understanding of the price action (market context) they're trading.

##TheStrategyLab chat room is is primarily designed for you to use as a trade journal of your WRB Analysis or real-time trades with time stamp archive....giving you a better understanding of your broker statements from one trade to the next trade when you review your 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 so that the chat room becomes your diary to correlate with your broker statements. Therefore, the usefulness of ##TheStrategyLab chat room is determined via your participation in the chat room.

Also, if you want ##TheStrategyLab chat room to be educational for you, ask questions instead of lurking (not participating in conversations). You can talk about anything related to price action analysis, trade execution, financial markets, economies or news impacting the markets in general.

Quote:
The chat room is only for traders learning or applying concepts of WRB Analysis. In addition, traders that use ##TheStrategyLab are required to post either one WRB Analysis price action commentary involving any key concept from the free study guide, one real-time trade or one general trading related commentary per day they log-in to the chat room. Yet, if the trader decides to post real-time trades (simulator or real-money)...the trades must be clear (not ambiguous) entry price/exit price and position size. Traders that consistently log-in and not post any price action commentary involving WRB Analysis or post ambiguous trades will be KICKED (removed) from the chat room. Exceptions for those that are actively posting via private messages or posting at one of our support forums.

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 price action trading. To qualify for access to our free ##TheStrategyLab chat room that's located on the Freenode IRC network...please follow the instructions at the TSL Support Forum @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/viewforum.php?f=164

[14:20:41] <@wrbtrader> strong continuation downtrend still active in the Emini Futures ES, NQ, YM, EMD and TF
[14:21:02] <@wrbtrader> Same for exchange traded funds SPY, IWM, QQQ, DIA and MDY
[14:22:51] <t4n> there have been big moves during midday break this week
[14:23:32] <@wrbtrader> Nice to see when that happens
[14:23:53] <@wrbtrader> Usually I take long breaks during the mid-day trading session...
[14:24:02] <@wrbtrader> Have been taking less breaks this week.
[14:24:27] <@wrbtrader> Traded aggressively yesterday mid-day in hopes of another sell-off...didn't happen
[14:24:52] <@wrbtrader> Today I took a small mid-day break...it sold off :(
[14:25:05] <@wrbtrader> as in a trend
[14:25:33] <t4n> guess you can only plan with audio alerts
[14:25:51] <t4n> by then its probably too late
[14:41:57] <@wrbtrader> Long Emini TF @ 1147.50 -> small size
[14:42:04] <@wrbtrader> 1 contract
[14:42:52] <@wrbtrader> t4n...I use audio alerts every day
[14:43:27] <@wrbtrader> Its only useful if I'm home to hear it during one of my breaks from trading
[14:43:44] <@wrbtrader> Thus, obviously not useful when I'm not home
[14:44:07] <@wrbtrader> Exited Emini TF Long @ 1146.50 --> - 1
[14:44:09] <t4n> do you set them at prior s/r areas or just price point away from the market?
[14:45:23] <t4n> away from current market price, i mean
[14:46:52] <@wrbtrader> I set my audio alerts on reaction highs/lows and WRB Hidden GAPs S/R areas
[14:47:21] <@wrbtrader> Thus, whenever price passes through one of those areas (if/when I'm home)...I come back to my computer.
[14:47:49] <@wrbtrader> I'm a strong believer in NOT sitting in front of the computer all day for trading...
[14:47:58] <t4n> i see, so you would likely have set them around the earlier dips and tops for today
[14:47:58] <@wrbtrader> not good for the physical and mental health
[14:53:30] <@wrbtrader> Its recommended by doctors that anyone that has a computer job...they should take six breaks...ten minutes each per 8 hour shift
[14:54:15] <@wrbtrader> and that does NOT include a 1 hour lunch
[14:55:02] <@wrbtrader> Simply, a total of 2 hours per work day should be away from the computer
[14:55:34] <@wrbtrader> If not able to do that...its recommended that we have a standing workstation (no chairs)
[14:56:17] <t4n> sounds important
[14:56:24] <t4n> suppose i will take a break
[14:56:35] <@wrbtrader> Critically important especially if you're trading full time
[14:56:54] <@wrbtrader> or doing an office job where you're sitting down all day
[14:57:59] <@wrbtrader> Soon I'm going to buy something similar to this @ http://www.greenmoxie.com/rising-to-the ... ding-desk/
[14:58:40] <@wrbtrader> I have a good friend that has one...changed his life (mentally and physically)

[15:57:29] <@wrbtrader> 6 contracts
[15:58:56] <@wrbtrader> struggling in the volatility :(
[15:59:14] <@wrbtrader> looks like its content to stay range bound
[16:00:43] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 1147.00 --> - 0.2
[16:01:50] <@wrbtrader> It tried hard to push but was not able to get above the reaction high of 1454pm est

[16:04:36] <@wrbtrader> Overall a good week of volatility
[16:04:53] <@wrbtrader> It just ran out of steam at the end of the week
[16:14:54] <@wrbtrader> Exited all Emini TF Long @ 1147.10 --> - 0.2

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

##TheStrategyLab (located on the Freenode IRC network) 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 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 traders in price action trading.

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 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 ##WRB_Analysis 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 price action 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
