#TheStrategyLab (formerly known as #FuturesTrades) is
free along with being a serious professional trading chat room involving
WRB Analysis and any trader can use the chat room to post their real-time trades, real-time price action analysis or market commentaries involving stocks, futures, exchange traded funds or forex currencies. Further, although our chat room is smaller than the other popular chat rooms...we are the most active chat room in posting trades, price action analysis or market commentaries in comparison to other free chat rooms.
#TheStrategyLab is primarily designed to be
only a
trade journal for documentation purposes only so that members can have a real time stamp archive of trades and market commentaries of each trading day and this gives them a better understanding of their broker statements from one trade to the next trade when they review their performance numbers on any given trading day. In addition, we welcome all traders (beginners and experience) that are merging
WRB Analysis with their trade methods or using
WRB Analysis to develop a better understanding of the price action (market context) they're trading...improving their position size management and trade management after entry.
Also, if you want #TheStrategyLab chat room to be
educational for you...
please ask questions instead of lurking (not participating in conversations).
Quote:
Traders that use #TheStrategyLab are not required to post trades but if you do post trades...the trades must be clear (not ambiguous) entry price/exit price and position size. Traders that consistently post ambiguous trades will be KICKED (removed) from the chat room.

market context information that's critical to understanding the price action you're trading. To log into #TheStrategyLab chat room...please follow the instructions here at the

[10:30:36] <@wrbtrader> Creeper Down Movement still active
[10:47:59] <@wrbtrader> WRB Analysis -> - Your use of this chat room implies you're using concepts from WRB Analysis to help trade either Stocks, Emini Futures (EMD, TF, ES, NQ, YM), EuroFX Futures (6E, EC), Eurex/Euronext Futures (DAX, ESTX50, FTSE100, CAC40), Treasury Futures (ZF, ZN, ZB), Oil Futures (Brent, CL, NG, HO, QM), Exchange Traded Funds (DIA, GLD, IWM, OIH, XLE, QQQ, SPY), Forex Currencies (GbpUsd, EurUsd, EurYen, UsdCad) or other key market price actions.

[10:55:09] <@wrbtrader> WRB pt1 reached
[10:56:03] <@wrbtrader> Creeper Down Movement still active...still making WRB Hidden GAPs followed by volatility contraction
[10:58:51] <@wrbtrader> A few in here are getting those "ping timeouts" (disconnections)...
[10:59:05] <@wrbtrader> If that continues...please change servers to see if that helps
[10:59:17] <@wrbtrader> helps to keep you connected to the chat room
[11:00:02] <@wrbtrader> another solution is to change IRC software or update your current IRC software that you're using to connect to IRC
[11:02:27] <@wrbtrader> Covered all Emini TF Short @ 789.60 --> + 2.2

http://www.thestrategylab.com/tsl/forum ... =119&t=718[12:27:57] <@wrbtrader> topic change
[12:33:09] <@wrbtrader> Emini NQ futures @ 1121am - 1124am est looked like it would encourage its fellow Emini futures to NOT go into a low volatility tight trading range via that volatility spike that resulted as a WRB Hidden GAP.
[12:33:53] <@wrbtrader> Yet, it then has been enduring volatility contraction (low volatilit, low volume, small range intervals)
[12:47:17] <SailorTra> It's making a wedge on the ES.
[12:55:31] <@wrbtrader> Yeah and now its pushing above that wedge.
[12:56:00] <@wrbtrader> Hopefully volatility shows up to help keep the price action above that wedge
[13:00:15] <@wrbtrader> Creeper Up Movement

[13:04:57] <+SailorTra> looks like wedge turned into a flag/up channel. Hitting top of it. Also around the 50%fib from hod/lod

price action only 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 #TheStrategyLab.
Reminder, our
Terms of Use (TOU) Policy is a must read to prevent any misunderstandings along with revealing that #TheStrategyLab 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.
