I'll save you a few keystrokes this morning Bruce!

Nibbling long at 62.00 looking for midpoint around 67

Good luck to all today.

perfect...they aren't allowed to blow through a well defined POC off the dailies without a retest....a classic Idea and hope many could use that today

Regarding the Bittman 2 step, to me it's just math and makes sense. I put it on mechanically and take it off mechanically (if needed). Appeals to my eins, zwei, drei heritage-LOL

here is a pic of that day...and a few others...buyers really need this to start holding above 57 - 59 in order to have any chance today from here on

here is weekly...note how I made a zone off a weekly buying tail and a weekly low.....from the week labelled 7-17 ...also look where that weekly poc is...so basically we have lots of numbers coming in at the range of 55 - 59 if we combine all these reference points

I'm gonna bail today with this " Most short term traders fail because they expect an exactness to the market - constantly expecting price to stop precisely at an exact number. The reality being that buyers and sellers usually work in zones" - Anonymous


Ok, I must admit that I just made that up !!! There's the stop of one time framing and the test of singles...another reference I use as targets

and who says girls can't rock ?? Here's a good example of one who rocks, looks good and is having a great time !
