##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 room and we ban traders for attempting to use our chat room as a trade alerts room for the purpose to mimic/copy 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

[08:44:19] * Now talking in ##TheStrategyLab
[08:44:19] ##TheStrategyLab url is http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum/
[09:49:06] <wrbtrader> Good morning
[11:40:02] <Trendtrader> Good morning
[12:01:52] <wrbtrader> Ok...I'm back after some personal things this morning...I missed the a.m. trading session
[12:02:18] <wrbtrader> Looks like straight up in many key markets
[12:02:22] <wrbtrader> Wow
[12:02:34] <wrbtrader> A big UP Trend Day
[12:12:00] <wrbtrader> Just checked some news sources...lots of reasons came together to cause today's strong Up Trend day @ https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/13/stock-m ... rexit.html
[12:12:18] <wrbtrader> similar like stories at Bloomberg
[12:16:41] <wrbtrader> I just finish a quick review of the charts for this big UpTrend...
[12:17:20] <wrbtrader> I only see one valid trade signal (Long position) that would have reached a WRB pt1 on low volatility.
[12:18:09] <wrbtrader> Simply, because it reached the WRB pt1 on low volatility...I would have exited the Long position to bank that small profit instead of riding it up for a big winner
[12:18:34] <wrbtrader> In contrast, had it reached the WRB pt1 on high volatility or increasing volatility...
[12:18:41] <wrbtrader> I would have stayed in the trade
[12:26:01] <wrbtrader> VIX mid 13 price range
[12:34:09] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2817.50 -> small size
[12:34:15] <wrbtrader> 2x
[12:36:11] <wrbtrader> Covered Emini ES Short @ 2818.75 --> - 1.25
[12:36:11] <wrbtrader> Reverse and Enter Long Emini ES @ 2818.75
[12:36:18] <wrbtrader> 2x
[12:37:12] <wrbtrader> both trades near the S area of the most recent Down WRB Hidden GAP interval
[12:45:09] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2821.00 --> + 2.25
[12:46:20] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached but volatility remained the same. Thus, I banked the profits and didn't want to risk losing it on a retracement
[13:03:28] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2821.25 -> small size
[13:03:31] <wrbtrader> 3x
[13:26:14] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2821.75 --> + 0.5
[13:27:12] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2821.50 -> medium size
[13:27:22] <wrbtrader> 5x
[13:27:48] <wrbtrader> I gotta be careful here with this Short in such a strong uptrend
[13:28:13] <wrbtrader> This is obviously a counter-trend trade on low volatility
[13:28:42] <wrbtrader> I'm looking for a small WRB pt1
[13:36:32] <wrbtrader> tightning trail stop...too much contraction now in the volatility
[13:36:48] <wrbtrader> I'm now expecting a volatility spike here soon
[13:37:22] <wrbtrader> I have a problem with a program on this computer...booting up my backup computer right now
[13:38:55] <wrbtrader> order in for a posiiton reversal @ 2823.00
[13:40:01] <wrbtrader> Covered Emini ES Short @ 2823.00 --> - 1.5
[13:40:01] <wrbtrader> Reverse and Enter Long Emini ES @ 2823.00
[13:40:04] <wrbtrader> 10x
[13:41:29] <wrbtrader> bad timing...gotta do a reboot...other computer open and logging into trade execution platform
-
[13:55:13] * Now talking in ##TheStrategyLab
[13:55:56] <wrbtrader> I am still holding the Long position...trade not looking good even though it has good support from other key markets
[13:56:31] <wrbtrader> In contrast, Emini YM and RTY weaken after my entry into the Long position
[13:56:48] <wrbtrader> both stable at a key support area
[13:57:12] <wrbtrader> but if they break below their support...I will dump my Emini ES position
[13:59:13] <wrbtrader> Emini YM and RTY are inside a WRB Zone...near the R area
[13:59:37] <wrbtrader> they need to get back above that R area to give Emini ES a boost upwards
[14:00:41] <wrbtrader> Emini YM and RTY futures retesting the R area
[14:01:46] <wrbtrader> RTY now above the R area of its WRB Zone
[14:02:00] <wrbtrader> YM now above the R area of its WRB Zone
[14:05:10] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2824.50 --> + 1.5
[14:05:22] <wrbtrader> tight trail stop hit
[14:06:27] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2825.50 -> small size
[14:06:31] <wrbtrader> 3x
[14:09:00] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2825.75 --> + 0.25
[14:10:05] <wrbtrader> That's a lot of upside pressure while getting easily shaken out of those recent Long positions too easily during the push upwards
[14:16:38] <wrbtrader> Glad I saw that WRB Zone or else I would have dump that 10x position for a 3 point loss
[14:33:10] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2821.50 -> medium size
[14:33:13] <wrbtrader> 6x
[14:33:51] <wrbtrader>
[14:34:20] <wrbtrader> Eminis dropped below a R area of a WRB Zone...now back above it
[14:40:37] <wrbtrader> geeesh
[14:40:50] <wrbtrader> pressure now by Emini NQ to go higher
[14:41:15] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2823.00 --> - 1.5
[14:41:20] <wrbtrader> punks
[14:43:29] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2821.75 -> large size
[14:43:33] <wrbtrader> 10x
[14:43:57] <wrbtrader> retesting the R area again
[14:44:22] <wrbtrader> re-entry
[14:45:34] <wrbtrader> Wow
[14:45:43] <wrbtrader> spiked downwards
[14:46:19] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2816.75 --> + 5
[14:46:28] <wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[14:49:54] <wrbtrader> Breaking news...Boeing 737 plances now grounded in the U.S. and Canada
[14:52:06] <wrbtrader> News broke around 2:20pm est but the media started picking up on it around 2:28pm est...resulting in a Down WRB Hidden Gap
[14:52:49] <wrbtrader> I picked up the info around 2:30pm est
[14:53:35] <wrbtrader> Yet, President Trump order grounding of the planes via the FAA around that time too
[14:55:53] <wrbtrader> Yet, how the heck did the market TREND so high today with the news and initial price drop in Boeing the prior two trading days
[14:55:59] <wrbtrader> Strange
[15:02:27] <wrbtrader> The grounding by the President implies any of those planes still in the air mid flight are now order to land at the nearest airport available.
[15:02:28] <wrbtrader> Wow
[15:04:28] <wrbtrader> The Emini ES futures should have dropped below 2800.00 on news like that from Boeing (BA)
[15:04:49] <wrbtrader> especially the Emini YM futures
[15:05:39] <wrbtrader> They "believe" its a software problem until they get new information that tells them its another issue
[15:08:26] <wrbtrader> Noted...last two recent trades (Shorts) was part technical but mostly related to breaking news involving Boeing planes in U.S. and Canada being grounded
[15:09:18] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2816.25 -> small size
[15:09:21] <wrbtrader> 3x
[15:14:24] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2817.50 --> - 1.25
[15:14:48] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2816.50 -> medium size
[15:14:51] <wrbtrader> 5x
[15:16:08] <wrbtrader> correction...
[15:16:10] <wrbtrader> 3x
[15:20:35] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2816.00 --> + 0.5
[15:27:30] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2816.75 -> medium size
[15:27:33] <wrbtrader> 5x
[15:30:15] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2815.25 --> - 1.5
[15:30:40] <wrbtrader> Long Emini ES @ 2816.25 -> medium size
[15:30:49] <wrbtrader> 5x re-entry
[15:35:26] <wrbtrader> Exited all Emini ES Long @ 2818.25 --> + 2
[15:53:43] <wrbtrader> Shorts Emini ES @ 2816.00 -> small size
[15:53:45] <wrbtrader> 3x
[15:59:10] <wrbtrader> Covered all Emini ES Short @ 2815.75 --> + 0.25
[15:59:39] <wrbtrader> It grabbed my trail stop
[16:06:11] <wrbtrader> Take care all and see all tomorrow...I may miss the morning session tomorrow
Session Close

Private Trade Journal: The below daily redacted screenshot of timestamp trade fills in broker trade execution platform are only posted in my private trade journal for my eyes only along with daily broker statement, quantitative statistical analysis of my WRB Analysis trade performance for the day from a professional trade journal, charts annotated with a few KME Key WRB Zones, and daily market summary from briefing.com

Today, I've copied the below-redacted screenshot from my private trade journal. It only verifies that I do in fact trade with real money. Yet, the image alone does not verify how I use WRB Analysis. Regardless, I will randomly copy from my private trade journal a redacted screenshot from here and there for posting on the website/forums of TheStrategyLab.
