[12:08] <+szubaark> Nice read on this Price Action and Reversing when didnt go
[12:09] <@NihabaAshi> Yeah...not too many long opportunities today and the few that occurred...had small potential.
[12:09] <@NihabaAshi> Didn't want to get married to any Long positions today on a slow creeper downtrend.
[12:09] <+pat255> the charts tell the story today ..no buyers
[12:10] <+szubaark> yea i was hoping for a pullback scalp to upside which never came
(
[12:10] <+szubaark> didnt Expect this thing to just Creep lower and lower and lower
[12:11] <+szubaark> new day, new lesson i guess
[12:11] <+szubaark> today is a good example why this crap cant be automated..each day is just so much different
[12:13] <+codehead> looking like a bit of a bounce brewing
[12:13] <+szubaark> OR just another Long fakeout
[12:16] <@X> #FuturesTrades Info -> Archived trade posting chat logs have a new location. They are now stored @
viewforum.php?f=20[12:17] <+szubaark> they dont want anyone on this downmove
[12:37] <@NihabaAshi> Still a creeper downtrend...very little action for the Longs.
[12:37] <+codehead> somewhere down here we get some bounce...
[12:37] <+codehead> have order in just under retest, 751.50
[12:38] <+codehead> could bounce before, but longs not doing well today
