##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...especially if you login to the free chat room and then just lurk (not say anything about your 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 Zones, WRB/WRB Hidden GAP profit targets, Key Market Events, Reaction Highs/Lows, Expanding Volatility, R area of WRB Zone, S area of WRB Zone, midpoint of WRB Zone and speed of the price action) 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.

This is not a signal calling (trade alerts) room. Our free chat room has never been advertised as a trade alerts room and we ban traders for attempting to use our chat room as a trade alerts room for the purpose to mimic/copy/piggyback trades posted by any of our members.

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 chat logs (we use it to provide critical missing info for our broker statements) 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

[11:55:12] <wrbtrader> Emiini futures now below yesterday's 0830am est KME price action
[12:06:12] <wrbtrader> Emini futures were immediately in a lot of trouble after they dropped below the WRB Analysis Pivot Point
[12:06:44] <wrbtrader> Emini YM fought the hardest to get back above but it was only a brief stay before it collapsed and soared lower
[12:13:25] <wrbtrader> VIX > 17
[12:13:47] <wrbtrader> very nice the latter part of this week in comparison to prior recent months
[12:26:00] <wrbtrader> More contraction in the volatility within the Emini futures
[12:26:45] <wrbtrader> So far today, the contracting volatility has been a prelude to lower lows
[12:31:34] <wrbtrader> Gotta have great patience today since 1020am est to reap the rewards if Short
[12:32:21] <wrbtrader> Support @ 2811.00
[12:32:57] <wrbtrader> Emini ES has been moving fast...it can quickly take out that S are or shoot up several points
[12:33:14] <wrbtrader> That speed with the chop has always been problematic
[12:34:18] <wrbtrader> 3 points Up and then 3 points the Down...very fast in less than a few minutes
[12:36:24] <wrbtrader> Weird...yesterday the markets where stone happy...cheering it to go higher...

[12:47:02] <wrbtrader> Reason for not posting them...price action was moving too fast...I was afraid to miss something while posting

[12:56:45] <wrbtrader> Wow...I'm still shocked by this week's price action since Wednesday
[12:57:24] <wrbtrader> The rally upwards caught me off guard and now the rally back downwards I was a lot more prepared due to better use of the WRB Analysis Pivot Points
[13:01:49] <wrbtrader> The amazing thing is that the Emini ES futures is only about 17 points below that Pivot Point
[13:02:20] <wrbtrader> With the speed of its price action the past two days...that 17 points can easily be retraced back upwards
[13:39:24] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2813.75 -> small size
[13:39:28] <wrbtrader> 3x
[13:40:13] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2815.75 --> - 2

[13:51:47] <wrbtrader> 3x re-entry
[13:53:12] <wrbtrader> Emini ES futures trying hard to reach an open WRB Zone
[13:53:55] <wrbtrader> Its tested the R area of the Zone 3 times since 1256pm est
[13:56:38] <wrbtrader> now below the R area of the WRB Zone...hopefully it can reach mid-range of the WRB Zone...looks like 2811.00
