It was a busy day in the room today. Unfortunately for me, it was not. I only trade NG, CL, TF, and GC. The room also trades these and the DAX, NQ, and YM. The DAX and NQ had 5 trades today. I only had 1.
CL: Long 48.08. SpeedTick at pivot with OBOS. LOD as confluence. +5

GC: Long 1233.5. SpeedTick +OBOS at Pivot . The ST bar was the 2nd bar to hit the pivot, not the 1st. Still within the trading rules so I took it. -7
.
GC: Short 1238.2. SpeedTick + OBOS at pivot. Plus Rico Dot for confluence. My NinjaTrader crashed after I was filled on my entry. Fortunately, my stop was placed before the crash so my stop was in place. Could have been ugly... -7

GC: Short 1265.1. SpeedTick with OBOS at Pivot and HOD . Hit +4 then came back down and stopped me. -7
