I have no life... I'm starting this topic early because I am sitting around, waiting for Sunday night GLOBEX and my world to begin again...

Yep, that's it. Next leg up, I think.

They sure are sweating me. But this may continue to dump after all. We'll see. They sure know this is a key spot. Dead on the most key line I have.

What a shake and bake. But, there indeed is that next leg up.

This does seem less trendy and much more indecisive now. Look at how it reacted to that little bearish ABCD there.

What an indecisive chopfest this has turned in to. HC ^2. This makes me think about just how key the decisions in here are.

There never was any real doubt to me the next push would be up, though.

Crude another new high for the move up.

Now, a burst here takes it over the price flow and clears the way for it to run in the aftermarket. Will it do it? I can't imagine it won't.

Wow, look at that reaction into the cash close. Right into the cash close. Right at a super-key price flow area. That is amazing, and totally surprises me. All these years of doing this, and they still surprise me almost daily. Look at that!

Almost six point off in barely a blink.

Loopy Jim. I need more sleep. Lots more sleep. I was just sitting, watching the news on TV, pondering my day with the markets, when it hit me I had been off by one cycle in identifying the ES contracts in my posts. I was saying Mar like it was the ending contract and June like it was the upcoming rollover contract, when I meant June and Sept, respectively.

No one called me on it (if you see something like this please post a comment so I can get it straightened out). I'm sure everyone knew what I meant, and the highs I mentioned, with their numbers, would have made it clear which contract I meant, but anyway, I fixed it in the posts where I saw it. I think I got them all, but if not, feel free to point it out to me.

When I was much (much) younger I was into motocross racing. Like all the major endeavors in my life, I do things 110% or not at all. I had a T-shirt back then that I still remember word for word what it said: We eat, sleep, ride, talk, breathe, dream, live and love motorcycles. I need a new shirt now that says: We eat, sleep, ride, talk, breathe, dream, live and love the markets. The 'ride' part is especially apropos. I thought of this because before I remembered my Faux Pas with the contract dates I was going to post:

Like I mentioned last week, I have no life outside the markets. Here I sit, on a Friday night, my better half sitting there probably wishing I'd come up with something for her and I to do, and all I can think about is how am I going to make it to Sunday at 3 PM?...
