While I'm basically bullish CL I've tried a short at 96.80 with a stop loss at 97.00. Ideally, price will go down a bit before NY opens and the buyers comes in again. My zone for buying is of course 95.80 - 96.20

Stopped out, -20 ticks.

Might pick up another short here if the area holds.

Shorting this uptrend yet again, 98.80

Placing a short limit at 1097 (OMXS30, trading at 1092 at the momemt)

Edit,

Getting out at break even, a bit to early for shorts maybe.

Added another short at 1327, SL for both contracts at 1331

Would really like to see a retrace to 98.70 in CL.
