#FuturesTrades is
free along with being a serious professional trading chat room and any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies.
This is not a signal calling chat room nor is the chat room designed to be educational. #FuturesTrades is 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. Yet, you will see members providing useful
trading tips that may or may not help with your trading.
Therefore, we welcome all traders with their own methods or different perspective of the markets as long as they do not violate our
Terms of Use (TOU) Policy.
Thanks for reading the trades or market commentaries that's below and it's highly recommend you make reading of the logs a part of your trading routine because you will sometimes find useful
trading tips not discussed anywhere else online nor in any books.

[10:29] <Hen> You all should use ChatZilla, it's a free Firefox IRC plug-in
[10:29] <+screenstruck> thanks Hen
[10:29] <+jbuch> Covered all ES Short @ 1065.25 --> - 0.5

[10:30] <+jbuch> Long ES @ 1065.5
[10:31] <@wrbtrader> Covered all TF Short @ 600.70 --> - 2.5
[10:31] <@wrbtrader> doesn't look like it's going to stay range bound
[10:32] <+jbuch> Exited all ES Long @ 1065.5 --> 0
[10:33] <@wrbtrader> Unfortunately my scripts don't work in Chatzilla
[10:35] <+Hen> that's unfortunate
[10:36] <@wrbtrader> TF ranging now within that 9am est price action
[10:37] <+jbuch> price just loves 64
[10:38] <@wrbtrader> Shorts TF @ 599.70 -> small size
[10:38] <@wrbtrader> 3 only
[10:38] <@wrbtrader> back inside that prior range
[10:38] <@wrbtrader> lets see if it stays in there or goes below it
[10:39] <+Hen> screenstruck I do not know about the highlighting and filtering on ChatZilla
[10:39] <+Hen> but there is a chatzilla open forum where you can post questions and such
[10:39] <+TraderG> oil inventories in 20
[10:42] <@wrbtrader> Covered all TF Short @ 599.40 --> + 0.3
[10:42] <@wrbtrader> It broke above that tight low volatility range and pull right back inside it.
[10:43] <@wrbtrader> Now it broke below it and then got pulled back inside it
[10:51] <+TraderG> the market needs CPR. it has no pulse
[10:53] <@wrbtrader> As soon as the mid-atlantic digs out of the most recent snow storm...
[10:53] <@wrbtrader> Markets volatility should return.
[10:53] <@wrbtrader> I'm expected traders to get their shovels out on the weekend and will be back to trading on Monday
[10:59] <Sidhartha> off topic... any thoughts on this potential global tax on speculative financial transactions...
Seems to be gaining some momentum here in europe. I guess devil is in the detail. But will it affect retail traders....
[10:59] <@wrbtrader> Lets see if TF gets sucked back down to that 599.70 area
[11:00] <@wrbtrader> Shorts TF @ 600.10 -> small size
[11:00] <@wrbtrader> 3 only
[11:00] <@wrbtrader> I'm betting it will retrurn to the quicksand
[11:00] <@wrbtrader> just did
[11:00] <+jbuch> Shorts ES @ 1063.75
[11:01] <+TraderG> inventories higher than expected
[11:01] <+TraderG> not that it matters .....
[11:03] <@wrbtrader> Covered all TF Short @ 599.50 --> + 0.6
[11:04] <+jbuch> Covered all ES Short @ 1063.75 --> 0
[11:05] <+TraderG> oil inventories higher and oil price goes up..... go figure
[11:06] <@wrbtrader> manipulation considering the Oil Index dropped
[11:06] <+TraderG> i am trying not to be influenced by news but I am.
[11:07] <+TraderG> I'll hide the facts on my news page and leave only the time and the subject of the news
[11:07] <@wrbtrader> Oil Index dropped from 1034am to 1104am est.
[11:07] <@wrbtrader> almost making a new intraday low
[11:08] <+TraderG> i haven't lost a penny 2day.
[11:08] <+TraderG> I did not trade
[11:10] <+TraderG> and on a more serious note: does anyone here use Ninja? If yes do you have problems with the ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE tab? If yes, please PM me

[11:15] <+jbuch> chased that all the way up
[11:15] <+TraderG> I am pi$$ed. oil is up 1$ and i did nothing
[11:18] <@wrbtrader> I'm going to do something tonight...instead of driving to the grocery store...I'm walking and will bring my camping back pack to bag the groceries
[11:18] <+jbuch> Exited all ES Long @ 1065 --> + 0.25
[11:19] <@wrbtrader> Oil keeps going higher and higher recently
[11:19] <+TraderG> for no economic reason
[11:19] <+TraderG> the dollar is stronger
[11:19] <+TraderG> so the oil producing nations are making more money
[11:20] <+TraderG> there is too much oil because of lack of economic activity
[11:20] <+TraderG> so why is oil going up?
[11:20] <+jbuch> Long ES @ 1065.5
[11:20] <+TraderG> anyway
[11:20] <+TraderG> I'll just have 2 stop thinking about this
[11:20] <@wrbtrader> I know last summer sales "rocketed" for motorcyles, mopeds, bicycles and snowmobiles.
[11:20] <+TraderG> yes
[11:21] <+TraderG> big gas guzzlers
[11:21] <@wrbtrader> Yeah...some places that get a lot of snow...people are commuting by snowmobiles...weird.
[11:21] <@wrbtrader> Last time I heard that was visiting my cousins in upper Minnesota in the middle of the winter.
[11:21] <+TraderG> my point was that those vehicles don't use too much gas
[11:22] <+TraderG> and not for a long time (winter0
[11:22] <@wrbtrader> TF broken out of it's range.
[11:22] <@wrbtrader> Lets see if volatility will stick around to setup a trade.
[11:23] <+jbuch> Exited all ES Long @ 1067.25 --> + 1.75

-------------------------
#FuturesTrades is
free and is a serious professional trading chat room in which any trader can use the chat room to post their trades or commentaries involving futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. Simply, you don't need to be a client of TheStrategyLab.com to use the chat room nor do you need to be a price action only trader (no indicators) because some members use indicators while others do not.
Therefore, we welcome all traders with their own methods and different perspective of the markets. To gain access to #FuturesTrades...please follow the instructions at the below link.
http://www.thestrategylab.com/ftchat/forum/viewforum.php?f=5The purpose of #FuturesTrades 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.
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.
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 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 advertisments for guest visitors. More information about #FuturesTrades @
http://www.thestrategylab.com/FuturesTradesChatRoom.htm Also, to prevent the usual mix-up about our different chat rooms, most of our fee-base clients do not use chat rooms just like most retail traders do not use chat rooms. Yet, the few clients that do use chat rooms, our fee-base clients are discussing market analysis or trade signals via concepts from our strategies in the
private chat rooms called
#VolatilityTradingTSL or
#SwingTradingTSL and they're not allowed to do such in #FuturesTrades.
Reminder, our
Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #FuturesTrades is a serious professional trading chat room and we expect members to act
professional. Also, these logs may have been edited (rarely) to remove any messages that a member has complained to me via private message that they consider a particular commentary to be inappropriate, offending or too far in the off topic area that's a distraction when the commentary was posted.
Note: All logs regardless to their location at TheStrategyLab.com website are eastern standard time. Best Regards,
M.A. Perry
