In the meantime....

A little CL short scalp trying to play the normal PA retracement....and a momentum short on the ES...

CL is hardcore, so I trade it small and not very often. I get more razor cuts (stopouts) of $80 to $150 than it's worth. (Already got me for $70 and $100 so far)

Give it about a 1 out of 3 chance of success...ES should roll...

Target already hit for 18.5 handles (74 ticks) on the ES.........CL is loafing around....

ES is still rolling....had that target set too close.....

30 locked on CL....It can trail me out in a heartbeat though...and likely will, since it's bouncing off the terminus mofu....

Edit: 42 locked on CL...

Edit 2: 50 locked...

Someone suggested one time that it wasn't worth the time and trouble to use accurate entries and exits..............

Well, I heartily disagree with that idea!....LOL

Hope it works out for you Longshot!

BTW, filled on the 6E at EURUSD 1473x....7 tick stop....Already don't like it since it went below 1473x (1468x is the LM -- Don't need it to move any further than that to tell me that I am wrong)

got one pending 1453.
its 88.6 fib level.
speculating on bat pattern.
its also the techincal target of the 5-0 pattern.

1394 is uncompleted cypher but it does not look so nice anymore.

Yeah, might work out better....

I'd rather short it than buy it, but at higher prices....lol

My ZUP harmonics says there is a bullish shark, bullish black swan and a bullish AB = CD on H1.......

It better hurry up because it's within one tick of stopping me out....lol

Edit: stopped out for minus seven........Will leave that 6E alone for the day.....but it still has the potential to go to 1555 from here..

Just don't like the uncertainty of this setup....

i closed some at 1493 touch.. looking to sell a 1555/57 bounce that is unlikely to happen.. 1/2 way 1527
added a s at the second touch of 1515... just took some off... I know not to try and catch a falling knife, and some years back I learnt patience from Mr. Gator, so until a touch of 1.13xx I won't try any L and will try and hold some s to target... or unless the current setup I see is broken... I know it was risky holding, but in recent times volatility caused from news/speculation based trading is a lot lower, which in turn causes less noise and makes the e/u pair somewhat "safer" to trade more aggressively... in this current move 5 days of gains were lost in 2 - for me this usually means a continuation of a larger move is about to ensue, hence the falling knife... the thought "Rome wasn't built in a day, but certainly burn't down in one" comes to mind. Will close rest before end of week depending on PA, but going back to 1.155x before 1.13 is starting to look less and less likely to me
