seems like nobody wants to buy this gap up.....that makes cents........market has been selling off so would YOU want to chase a market higher that has been in a downtrend? Not me!!

the character of the market is different so from yesterday. Big $ was a buyer yesterday and small $ was a seller. Right now for the pit session bigs are -12600 net contracts and small $ is +8500 net contracts

How often on average do these shift ? In other words will the big players shift to net long very often during the day while the small get more short?

YEAH, Joe .. as i said i did! But i was sure it could be mastered and after using every system known at the time , i decided to be my own 'expert' and develop my own thing! been fine ever since!



Well said, You can hear it a million times but its whats needed...a system. I am counter trend trader most of the time so its a given that you'll draw down a fairly large amount at times. But my draw downs are smaller than my winners, and once losses occur I go smaller on contract size and then add back to it when things go back to normal. I don't need a new system I just wish I knew how to flip the counter trend trader off and turn on the trend trader in an instant.
