##TheStrategyLab primary purpose is for you to use the free chat room as a trade journal of your trades via you posting WRB Analysis of the price action you see on your monitors, posting price action analysis, ask real-time questions about WRB Analysis or posting your real-time trades (simulator or real money) in a timestamp environment after you've received confirmation from your broker trade execution platform. Simply, 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 and you decide to not discuss WRB Analysis nor post any real-time information about how you're viewing the markets nor post real-time trades...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 their 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 their trade methods to improve the performance of their trade methods regardless if they're a position trader, swing trader, day trader, trend trader or range 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.

With that said, thanks for reviewing (reading) the below timestamped trades, price action analysis or market commentaries 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

[10:51:35] -ChanServ- [##TheStrategyLab] Chat room for day traders, swing traders, position traders using concepts from WRB Analysis to help improve the performance of their trade signal strategies. WRB Analysis free study guide @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum ... =119&t=718
[10:53:43] <wrbtrader> Volatility in the VIX barely moved in the past 50 minutes while it was increasing in the Emini futures = contradiction in the volatility
[10:54:46] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2894.00 -> large size
[10:54:54] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[10:55:16] <wrbtrader> Emini correlation increasing slightly
[10:56:50] <wrbtrader> tough to hold on to this one
[10:57:15] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2894.25 --> + 0.25
[10:58:05] <wrbtrader> I was hoping the slight increase in correlation and the contradiction in the voatility would send this higher to a WRB pt1...didn't happen :(
[11:01:17] <wrbtrader> Its trying again and in hindsight...I got pick pocketed before it retraced back upwards
[11:01:33] <wrbtrader> Now it hits a WRB pt1 without me
[11:13:40] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2894.25 -> large size
[11:13:43] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[11:14:24] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2894.50 --> - 0.25

[12:08:00] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2897.25 -> large size
[12:08:05] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[12:09:34] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2897.50 --> - 0.25
[12:15:49] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2898.00 -> large size
[12:15:51] <wrbtrader> 10 contracts
[12:16:04] <wrbtrader> volatility is very contracted right now
[12:16:17] <wrbtrader> mid day trading session
[12:17:07] <wrbtrader> tight stop loss just in case a volatility spike shows up from this heavy contraction
[12:17:34] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2897.50 --> - 0.5
[12:17:47] <wrbtrader> :(
[12:18:17] <wrbtrader> I was hoping this trade could last awhile and the S area wold hold
[12:20:45] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2897.75 -> large size
[12:21:17] <wrbtrader> tight stop/loss protection again
[12:23:38] <wrbtrader> I'm now expecting a volatility spike here soon eventhough it is the mid-day trading session
[12:25:26] <wrbtrader> tightning trail stop
[12:33:31] <wrbtrader> shallow WRB pt1 reached
[12:34:48] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2898.25 --> + 0.5
[12:39:29] <Donnin________> man this long is annoying
[14:08:53] <wrbtrader> CL and Brent trying to push higher
[15:12:53] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2896.50 -> small size
[15:13:00] <wrbtrader> 1 contract
[15:18:25] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[15:18:54] <wrbtrader> Covered Emini ES Short @ 2895.50 --> + 1
[15:31:27] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2897.00 -> small size
[15:31:31] <wrbtrader> 1 contract
[15:32:20] <wrbtrader> wrong analysis for this trade :(
[15:33:26] <wrbtrader> Should have been Long @ 2896.25
[15:33:35] <wrbtrader> got my analysis mixed up
[15:42:31] <wrbtrader> Exited Emini ES Long @ 2896.00 --> - 1
[15:43:05] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2896.25 -> small size
[15:43:17] <wrbtrader> 1 contract
[15:43:41] <wrbtrader> Didn't hesitate this time @ 2896.25
[15:44:44] <wrbtrader> Now I need some patience to hold this trade into the 4pm est rush hour traffic or hope my trail stop doesn't get pick pocketed
[15:45:05] <Donnin________> you up in the chop that amazing
[15:45:29] <wrbtrader> I didn't trade in most of it today...I took a nap
[15:48:56] <wrbtrader> The gap in my trading and in most of the chop is between 1235pm - 1512pm est
[15:49:28] <Donnin________> i see
[15:50:08] <wrbtrader> That chop looks brutal...didn't see any trade opportunities in it. Thus, wouldn't have taken any trades even if I wasn't nap
[15:52:04] <wrbtrader> Today was tough for me because my data for the VIX was stalled or stuck...its been stuck at 12.35 all day and I've had some problems with my backup via the Eurex futures...their data stalled today for me too :(
[15:53:41] <wrbtrader> If Emini NQ can breakout above the R area of 7566.00 on increasing volatility...
[15:53:52] <wrbtrader> Emini ES futures will follow strongly
[15:54:20] <wrbtrader> Both not doing so good with their correlation nor volatility :(
[15:55:44] <wrbtrader> Exited Emini ES Long @ 2895.75 --> - 0.5
[15:56:39] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2896.00 -> small size
[15:56:42] <wrbtrader> 2 contracts
[15:56:48] <wrbtrader> re-entry
[15:57:05] <Donnin________> right im done as of today trading outside of trend
[15:57:32] <wrbtrader> Outside of trend ?
[15:58:45] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached but not able to grab it
[15:59:08] <wrbtrader> Hoping for a 2nd chance at it
[16:00:07] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2897.75 --> + 1.75
[16:00:36] <wrbtrader> got a lucky 2nd chance at it
[16:02:13] <Donnin________> well my definition of trend that is
[16:02:18] <wrbtrader> Emini futures loved the U.S./Mexico new trade deal but the U.S. Dollar did not
[16:03:19] <wrbtrader> When you say "outside of trend ?...do you mean you prefer to trade when there's no trend
[16:03:38] <Donnin________> well i kinda worded that wrong
[16:04:09] <Donnin________> when price id outside of what i define as trend i will not trade
[16:05:48] <wrbtrader> As soon as I recognize there's low volatility, no WRB Hidden GAP intervals, smaller intervals...its price noise or tight trading range or just chop
[16:07:14] <wrbtrader> I'll set some "audio" price alerts on a few key WRB Analysis S/R levels and then walk away from the computer until I hear an audio alert.
[16:12:40] <wrbtrader> Take care all and see all tomorrow
[16:21:54] <Donnin________> wrbtrader where can i learn about wrb s/r levels exclusively
[16:23:32] <Donnin________> would love to have quality s/r levels that i can look at and watch
[16:23:48] <wrbtrader> Review the WRB Analysis Free Study Guide...chapter 2 and then review the Advance Tutorial Chapter 4 involving using WRB Hidden GAP intervals R area and S area as S/R levels
[16:24:08] <Donnin________> ok thanks
[16:24:29] <wrbtrader> Price action needs to enter their range of the Hidden GAP to activate the S/R levels
[16:25:00] <wrbtrader> Yet, when the Hidden GAP area is filled...it de-activates the S/R areas
[16:25:15] <wrbtrader> That's the made theme about them
[16:27:14] <Donnin________> if im inside that s r that means between s/r
[16:27:53] <Donnin________> there is resistence above and below me
[16:28:05] <Donnin________> and support
[16:33:00] <Donnin________> ill draw it out in paint to see if i get it
Session Close

##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 free 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.

Quote:
The free chat room is not a signal calling trading room with a head trader telling you what to trade, when to buy or when to sell. In fact, we do not believe in the business model of a head trader telling other traders when to buy and sell. Its a flawed approach to trading and its a flawed substitution for mentoring in which a trader can not learn how to be a successful independent trader.

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.
