##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, WRBs, WRB Hidden GAPs, WRB Zone, WRB/WRB Hidden GAP profit targets, Key Market Events, Reaction Highs/Lows, Expanding Volatility, WRB Zone, R area of WRB Zone, S area of WRB Zone) 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 your 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 Review - This is not a signal calling trading room. We have no interest in trading rooms where a head trader tells other traders when to buy and sell. This chat room is free and many years ago it was started by users of WRB Analysis. Our job is to moderate (keep the peace between members) the chat room and to answer any questions involving WRB Analysis. The purpose of the chat room is 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 the 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. Thus, the usefulness of ##TheStrategyLab chat room is determined via your participation in the chat room.

Yet, you're not require to use the free chat room as a trade journal to get help with your trading. Instead, as recommended by some users of WRB Analysis, you can use professional journal services such as tradervue, edgewonk, tradebench or tradingdiarypro for your statistical analysis in combo with our chat room or your private thread to discuss with us the statistical analysis of your trading so that we can help you to improve your use of WRB Analysis. Therefore, you have many choices. You can use our chat room (you maintain your own statistics) as a trade journal or you can use professional trade journal services to do the work for you.

Also, do not attempt to use our chat room as a signal calling trade room via trying to mimic (copy) trades posted by members. If you do such, you will be KICKED from the chat room without warning. In fact, most of the negative commentary about TheStrategyLab website is by traders after we've removed them from the free chat room, removed them from the forum or removed them from the website for violating our terms of use policy.

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.

With that said, thanks for reviewing (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

Risk warnings for trading @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/risk-warning.htm
[14:43:21] <wrbtrader> Crude Oil CL futures stuck in a tough trading range below its earlier big price drop.
[14:43:42] <wrbtrader> Actually, its stuck below those Down WRB Hidden GAP interval
[14:44:04] <wrbtrader> efloortrader...not much happening with treasury futures today
[14:44:18] <irza> best times to trade crude usually in the morning
[14:44:28] <wrbtrader> agree
[14:44:32] <irza> after 2pm is pit closed and less opportunities
[14:44:38] <irza> 230pm is pit close
[14:44:45] <werner1> must go now...see you all tomorrow
[14:44:47] <irza> but after 2p even less trading opportunities
[14:47:21] <irza> Exited 1/2 Emini ES Long @ 71.5 --> + 2
[14:48:34] <wrbtrader> Emini ES futures is stuck at the S area of its most recent WRB Zone (Down WRB HG interval) 3min chart...trying to push upwards
[15:07:06] <irza> stepping away, hope i got LOD for overnight rally swing
[15:30:42] <wrbtrader> I tried an overnight swing the other day...
[15:31:23] <wrbtrader> Did not get what I wanted because S&P is range bound on the daily chart
[15:32:17] <wrbtrader> February, March, May, June, October are decent swing trade months
[15:32:39] <wrbtrader> Throw in November during U.S. presidential election years
[15:33:40] <wrbtrader> When I swing traded...those were the only months I did swings
[15:34:07] <wrbtrader> Yet, on the flip side...the stats of the good months...they are old
[15:34:22] <wrbtrader> I have not reviewed that info since 2005
[15:35:02] <wrbtrader> The good thing now for the past several days...
[15:35:38] <wrbtrader> Something is going on...I see a big WRB Hidden GAP interval pending on the daily chart
[15:35:44] <wrbtrader> We're due for one
[15:36:32] <mtntrader____> We sure are.
[15:41:55] <irza> 1-2 day swing here
[15:42:13] <irza> basically want tomorrow to open above today's LOD otherwise, signal negated
[15:42:19] <wrbtrader> volatility spike back to the 2174.50
[15:42:39] <irza> doing well so far :)
[15:49:49] <irza> hope we do such big WRB gap on daily chart tomorrow lol
[15:55:09] <wrbtrader> I hope your right...that means it'll be a good intraday for trading
[15:56:48] <wrbtrader> Most of today's price action for the S&P is inside the range of yesterday's initial big up movement
[15:58:29] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2174.00 -> small size
[15:58:38] <wrbtrader> 5 contracts
[16:01:09] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2175.00 --> + 1
[16:01:32] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached and its that 2175 area again
[16:02:30] <wrbtrader> actually...wrong
[16:02:45] <wrbtrader> The key area I'm watching @ 2175.25
[16:03:06] <wrbtrader> I'll be paying close attention to it tomorrow whenever price action nears it
[16:03:33] <wrbtrader> It's the low price of the contracting volatility that showed up yesterday after the initial big run up
[16:04:05] <mtntrader____> Take care and see you tomorrow.
[16:04:21] <wrbtrader> take care
[16:04:29] <wrbtrader> I'm outta here too...see all tomorrow
