##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).

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 analysis involving WRB Analysis merged with your own trade methods, post real-time trades via WRB Analysis or talk about general market issues impacting today's price action involving stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies as part of your trade journal. 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 signal calling 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 ##TheStrategyLab free 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

[09:44:37] ##TheStrategyLab url is http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/
[09:45:59] <wrbtrader> Good Morning
[09:46:40] <wrbtrader> -12 % in the Emini ES futures
[09:47:01] <wrbtrader> Getting close to another "Limit Down" @ -13%
[09:48:56] <wrbtrader> The first time I've ever seen this many "Limit Downs" in one trading day
[09:49:02] <Tigerman______> fDAX try move up
[09:49:17] <Tigerman______> stoped on my short near today low
[09:49:23] <Tigerman______> reverted up
[09:49:41] <Tigerman______> just scary because big hole in spread
[09:49:55] <wrbtrader> The FED tried something a little different this time with their rate cut...
[09:50:02] <Tigerman______> 60 points move in seconds
[09:50:53] <wrbtrader> They did it cooridinated with central banks doing the same in OTHER countries along with putting more money (billions of dollars) into the BOND markets
[09:51:10] <wrbtrader> Crazy and right now...it didn't work
[09:51:14] <Tigerman______> fDax try test most recent reaction high
[09:51:39] <Tigerman______> people more concern this time with own health
[09:52:03] <Tigerman______> plus in panic they sell as no tomorrow
[09:52:15] <Tigerman______> mutual funds small retailer
[09:53:10] <Tigerman______> plus more realize world will be in lockdown if something magical show up very soon
[09:53:16] <wrbtrader> I caught another website reselling codes for WRB Hidden GAP intervals as indicators...screenshot of these reseller trolls @ http://www.thestrategylab.com/images/fa ... trolls.png
[09:53:54] <wrbtrader> I've now created a special webpage to identify these idiots and their associations with review websites
[09:53:58] <Tigerman______> I mean if nothing magical show up soon it will be hard
[09:55:31] <wrbtrader> Another one I caught are selling my "redacted screenshots" that verifies my trade performance for $38 dollars per image
[09:56:20] <Tigerman______> yeah absurd can you indentify and start legal action
[09:56:37] <wrbtrader> I'm sure they could have gotten 10x the amount of dollars had I "signed" those screenshots they're selling
[09:56:48] <wrbtrader> Not worth taking legal action
[09:57:19] <wrbtrader> I only can notify Google and Google is good for taking down those websites
[09:57:26] <Tigerman______> maybe they think to be ok because sell a tool not the strategy
[09:58:17] <wrbtrader> Google took down last year alone about 9 websites I've complained about resellers of WRB Hidden GAP indicators and resellers of my redacted screenshots
[09:58:19] <Tigerman______> regardless if just a tool work always smooth I ll be billionare
[09:58:38] <wrbtrader> Not sure if they're actually making money
[10:00:18] <wrbtrader> Can't figure out why they're selling my "redacted screenshots" of trade fills in my broker trade execution platform...first time I've ever seen that crap
[10:00:43] <wrbtrader> Strangely, all the images are prior to 2016
[10:00:53] <wrbtrader> None after 2016
[10:01:55] <wrbtrader> Maybe due to my public trade journal is now private since July 2018 ??
[10:01:55] <Tigerman______> yeah odd ... anyway people lose time with this crap instead look at the real source of WRB analysis
[10:02:40] <Tigerman______> crazy people outthere
[10:03:28] <wrbtrader> Jealous people
[10:03:45] <wrbtrader> Back to the Corona Virus...

[10:14:13] <wrbtrader> Wow...Wow...Wow
[10:15:19] <wrbtrader> Tigerman, I wouldn't be surprise that U.S. traders will move to the Eurex and Euronext Futures
[10:15:50] <wrbtrader> during the Corona Virus crisis unless Eurex/Euronext also have "limit downs"
[10:16:43] <Tigerman______> at the moment no limt in action if it exist seems put at -30 % )
[10:17:07] <wrbtrader> -30 %
[10:17:09] <wrbtrader> wow
[10:17:20] <wrbtrader> That would be a crazy limit down
[10:17:42] <Tigerman______> ah it was my teory or idea
[10:18:08] <Tigerman______> seems it is not there maybe they can close exchange
[10:19:17] <wrbtrader> That's a rumor floating around today...the U.S. may just CLOSE the markets temporary like a week or 30 days during the Corona Virus crisis
[10:19:37] <wrbtrader> If they did that...that would be a DISASTER
[10:19:56] <wrbtrader> Closing the markets...banks will panic and lock their doors
[10:20:11] <wrbtrader> People won't be able to get access to their money
[10:20:21] <wrbtrader> Resulting in RIOTS

[10:24:13] <Tigerman______> they sweep at end of day depending on what one traded
[10:24:49] <Tigerman______> some bank in Europe consider cash account when you are flat in positions
[10:25:13] <wrbtrader> Now imagine if this was like one of those Zombie virus movies...
[10:25:31] <wrbtrader> Easily to imagine a global complete financial collapse
[10:25:32] <Tigerman______> wrbtrader your broker consider at risk money when you are flat so no positions held
[10:26:00] <wrbtrader> Not sure
[10:26:43] <wrbtrader> I've already pulled almost all my money out of my backup trading accounts...transfer back to my bank accounts
