Here are my trades 1 -6:



Trade 1:

Entry: 48.44
Stop: 48.36

Long right after I didn't get my fill. I put on a stop limit buy order at 48.18, just above the ONL before the release. However, it wasn't picked up and just traded through and higher so I just pressed market order after OR-H held. Quickly up and booked a small profit at 48.50 as I thought it might find some resistance. Just a small gain

Trade 2:

Entry: 48.52
Stop: 48.60

AFter it came down from the ONH, quickly in and then +6T and came back up so just closed it out. Later would be stopped out...

Trade 3:

Entry: 48.49
Stop: 48.57

Again short as ONH acted as resistance again. But too afraid to hold it longer as I thought the report was very bullish so again closed it out with a tiny gain.

Trade 4:

Entry: 48.59 + 48.69
Stop: 48.70

I tried to short after it came down from OR-X1 but it was too early as it just went up and up and I scaled in a 2nd lot just too see if yday-h would act as resistance but when my limit order at 48.69 was filled it then just stopped out 1 lot and I wasn't sure why. So just clicked close on my 2nd lot...really weird why the ATM didn't kick in and stopped me out on 2 lots when the stop was hit...

Trade 5:

Entry: 48.78
Stop: 48.86

Again short after the June 4th and 7th held as resistance which I had marked as a zone in my morning prep. It quickly went lower and I booked a tiny profit of 5T...then back up to my entry...but would not be stopped out

Trade 6:

Entry: 48.71
Stop: 48.79

As it went down again, I was looking for a move towards the yday-h with a potential break...but it went straight against me and I was almost stopped out as it traded up to 48.78 - 4 times. Never thought it would come back down as it was so close to a stop out but then it did. I then put my target to yday-h at 48.66 but of course we all know that it went all the way to 47.85...stupid bc 20T target easily hit --> patience!!!!!



Trade 7:

Entry: 48.02
Stop: 47.94

After the crazy drop in just a couple seconds, I saw that we came back up above even 48 and just went long after it held. But I was too afraid it would back down and just exited with a tiny profit of 5T...again much higher and target of 20T hit....again stupid

Trade 8:

Entry: 48.57 + 48.66 + 48.68
Stop: 48.72

After it slowly grinded up, I went short when it came lower from OR-X1 and ONH and after release support. As we broke it early, thought it might act as resistance but volume was so low and it just continued to grind higher so I manually put my stop above 48.70 (support from 9:41am - 9:47ish), when I had 2 lots and it came to my entry just took 1 lot off but again OR-X1 and ONH acted as support again. So it went higher and just had a sell limit order at the highs from 5min ago. I was later filled and again it went back to my entry and again I took 1 lot off. Reason being that it was so slow and thought we just continue to trade higher, so just left 1 lot on. Then it came close to being stopped out as it came within 1 tick...but then it sold off again and I had a limit buy order right at the ONH, filled and done with CL.

I was looking for some movement with the FOMC statement but it was a non-event and then I didn't trade anymore...

Great effort on your part.
What was your P/L for the day?

wow kind of crazy moves....need to look at a 5 second chart!!!! to see my trades....last 2 trades pretty shitty as my targets would've been easy hit but too afraid to hold as this 100T move down didn't make sense to me. But well, I guess just lots of longs and their stops got hit...

Wow,really inspiring stuff



If I know correctly oil has a thin volume on order book.What is the usual fill you get when trading more than 10 contracts?
