@ mfbreakout you should consider starting your own trading journal thread on the forum to post your setups.

Hi Mike and greatwest,

I thought about it but there was already a thread by the name of ACD, so i thought i will just post here in the hopes of meeting other ACD traders thinking this thread already may have a following.

Great west , i would love to exchange ideas regarding ACD.

01-05-2012. I try to stay away during oil report. It's interesting to note we had a failed A down in ES again with DXY above 81 level.

cover last short 102.74. In case one is not counting- CL has moved from 9 am opening bell 380 ticks. and No i did not get enough considering the opportunities presented from the opening bell..

@mfbreakout

I assume you subscribe to MF's daily trader. Do you find the market commentary useful and also do you know who writes it. I know Joe Terranova used to write it but he left the firm. My other question is that got long at 101.98 based on the reference points. Are these reference points from the market commentary or pivot/or calculations. (ex. short around 103.20 and long from 101.90-102. I am breaking into the ACD method, and i see you trade it well so I would be very interested in any insights you might have.

Long 102.62 out 103.10 and holding some in case 103.40 gets taken out.

I am not sure why 102.60 became a support after initial sell off. All i know ACD gave 102.60 as a good reference point.

All i know ACD gave good reference points as TRADE LOCATION.

My best indicator is TRADE LOCATION.

When CL fails to take out a level like 103.40 , it's back to scene of crime. Long 102.66. stop loss 102.57.

We are into pit close, anything can happen.

Got stopped out 102.57. Short 102.58 and cover 102.16. Once a level gets broken , it becomes resistance .

Daily support is 102-08-101.90, so glad to cover 102.18. It can go down but it can also bounce to 102.94 , daily pivot area.
