Great trading!

Thank you. When there's momemtum like this..you can get some decent opportunities..if you are not afraid to act quickly.
If you sit there and go, "Hmmm...I wonder what's happening right now..my 5 minute candle seems to be getting a bit long..perhaps this requires further investigation..Gee..let's see what my useless. lagging indicators have to say about all this..." Meanwhile 100 ticks later... lol

Well first I was zagged and zigged a bit in some range bound action and being on the wrong side a couple of times so I was around BE.
Than cl broke above 40.87 /ONH/.
I was watching the price action on the Jigsaw DOS and cl did trade below .87 but buyers quite force fully did push it back above therefore the buy side seemed quite strong to me /well you never know with this beast/ regardless I went long at .90 than added after a pull back when I saw strong buying at .88 having my stop at .77 with no targets... got over 50 ticks per contract. Nice crazy move and being on the right side was very nice indeed whatever the cause was. I did not see such move for a while when basically from ~41.10 through ~41.30 was no sellers at all just buyers.
Interesting enough usually - in my experience - when price runs away like that the "gap" will be back filled as it happened today as well.

Kind regards,

atata
