How about that thing called Crude? A certain type of price action happens on DOE report days between 9 -10.30 am eastern time. Basically a rotation glore, so will be flat before the news.

Out 82.65 and looking for shorts.

Anything could happen per Ellie Goulding but in trading probabilities are pretty much defined within our time frame.

Report soon at 10:30 EST- Crude Oil Inventories- forecast of 3.3 mil barrels

Actual was 2.1 mil barrels... it could head either way.....watching
went up, then back down to VWAP....Not sure what it wants to do.

If after all said and done and after DOE news ORL is around 82 and price just does not want to go below it, what's the trade? On the flip side if price just keeps failing at ORH what will be the trade? CL is trying to take out some old resistance on the way up. It will go back and forth as she attempts to take out resistance on the way up especially on FOMC minutes pending news day.

Lot of tech names under pressure . FB got hammered down 7% after earning release last night. Market internals mixed at best. TF up 3% yesterday and straight up on weekly basis. We have FOMC minutes due today.

ORH is at 1153. What's the trade if a trader assumes rotational day till FOMC minutes?

Holding short in ZS from yesterday. What's the price of holding for potential big gains?


Stopped out of ZS short. Now long. When these instruements move they move like there is no tomorrow.
