##TheStrategyLab primary purpose is for you to post your WRB Analysis, post your price action analysis, ask real-time questions about WRB Analysis or post your real-time trades in a timestamp environment...the free chat room is a trade journal of your trading day (thoughts and trades). In fact, if you think the only feedback you need is your broker statements...the free chat room will be a waste of your time and you will increase the odds of failing at trading.

The free chat room is located on the Freenode IRC network along with being a serious professional trading chat room for traders that want to talk about your use of 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) merged with your trade methods to improve the performance of their trade methods regardless if you're a position trader, swing trader or day trader. Therefore, you're welcome to use the free 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 because the business model for such isn't suitable for helping traders to succeed as independent traders. 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. Once again, the purpose of the free 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 thoughts and how you interacted with the markets 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. You can then request a private thread for you to share the professional journal analysis of your trading with us for us to review. 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

[09:27:33] ##TheStrategyLab url is http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/
[09:42:30] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2358.75 -> large size
[09:45:08] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2359.75 --> + 1
[09:45:36] <wrbtrader> lucky exit considering I had some problems entering the trade
[09:45:57] <wrbtrader> First time I tried at 2356.25 (no fill)
[09:46:18] <wrbtrader> Then again at 2357.75 (no fill)
[09:46:53] <wrbtrader> Just seems like my data is a few ticks behind what's actually happening
[09:46:55] <wrbtrader> :(
[09:47:53] <wrbtrader> Not sure if anyone remember prior to my hospitalization last year...
[09:48:08] <wrbtrader> I posted price quotes in here for several weeks
[09:49:11] <wrbtrader> Someone was then monitoring the posts and there stats showed that about 40% of the time I was on average about 2 - 3 ticks behind a fast moving market
[09:49:42] <wrbtrader> Simply, in contracting intervals...broker quotes are accurate
[09:49:54] <wrbtrader> In an expanding (volatile) market...
[09:50:10] <wrbtrader> Broker quotes are 2 - 3 ticks behind
[09:50:39] <wrbtrader> That would explain the "no fills"
[09:50:57] <wrbtrader> 2358.75
[09:51:16] <wrbtrader> Emini ES futures contracting volatility now
[09:51:26] <wrbtrader> 2358.50
[09:57:20] <wrbtrader> 2359.00
[09:57:35] <wrbtrader> 2359.25

[09:59:22] <wrbtrader> 2360.50
[10:13:36] <wrbtrader> 2360.00
[10:29:04] <wrbtrader> contracting volatility in the Emini futures
[10:59:51] <TradeSnake______> Short YM @ 20675
[11:00:20] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2358.75 -> large size
[11:00:29] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[11:02:25] <TradeSnake______> Covered YM @ 20660 --> +15
[11:02:35] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2358.75 --> 0
[11:03:24] <wrbtrader> early exit...I expected it to push below 2358.00 but it did not. In fact, it bounced off the level as if it was support.
[11:04:05] <wrbtrader> I had support @ 2357.75 via the S area of an unfilled Up WRB Hidden Gap interval
[11:04:37] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2358.50 -> large size
[11:04:52] <wrbtrader> Thus, the minimum I was looking for on that prior Short was +1 point
[11:05:11] <wrbtrader> re-entry
[11:05:17] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[11:05:31] <wrbtrader> It retested the 2358 again
[11:10:05] <TradeSnake______> VWAP right at 2358 in ES. Do you ever monitor the VWAP? I've noticed emini's often tend to find support/resistance at these levels. At least on initial trusts...
[11:10:56] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2358.75 --> - 0.25
[11:18:36] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2359.75 -> large size

[11:42:27] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[11:42:37] <wrbtrader> re-entry

[11:48:33] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2352.50 --> - 0.25
[11:48:40] <wrbtrader> :(
[12:09:02] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2352.50 -> large size
[12:09:13] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[12:09:21] <wrbtrader> re-entry
[12:10:35] <wrbtrader> :(
[12:10:45] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2352.25 --> + 0.25
[12:11:11] <wrbtrader> volatility was starting to show up...then it quickly disappeared
[12:11:25] <wrbtrader> taking my trail stop too
[12:11:46] <wrbtrader> I know it was tight but the contraction required me to make it a tight trail stop
[12:12:15] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2351.25 -> large size
[12:13:10] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2349.00 --> + 2.25
[12:13:20] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[12:14:27] <wrbtrader> In the past...with price movement pressure like this...
[12:14:38] <wrbtrader> I normally went 20 contracts
[12:15:19] <wrbtrader> I'm still not at where I want to be involving the "mental edge" I need to psychologically manage position size that large
[12:15:41] <wrbtrader> I had it once until my illness last year
[13:39:30] <wrbtrader> Impressive retracement by the Emini futures back to the contracting volatility intervals that occurred just prior to the big price drop

[14:23:23] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2357.50 -> small size
[14:23:37] <wrbtrader> Prior trade...trail stop was tight
[14:24:17] <wrbtrader> I'm keeping stats on trail of 3 ticks or less...
[14:24:42] <wrbtrader> Hopefully by mid-summer I can use the info to help with trading in contracting volatility
[14:25:04] <wrbtrader> re-entry 5 contracts
