Crude Oil Futres

Recommended Posts

I recently found OFA FREE and here is a snap of it showing a trade coupled with my standard PLT indicator on the right. This is the free version of OFA software which shows order flow in a bit different manner than all the other ladders. It is great. I bought the paid version and full suite of plug-ins with it but have not had a chance to use it.

This is going to be some pretty exciting times with OFA in the near future.

Anyone interested in order flow I highly recommend going to the OFA FREE site and downloading the program. Working software FREE forever and very meaningful.

Dead Thread?

 

I looking for Crude to bounce to $100 this week.:(

 

Hi James

You are right - 'dead thread' - this is why I abandoned it back in February this year. Lack of interest and input. I thought I would try a couple posts to see if we can generate some interest especially with the OFA software. Order flow is the way to go but nobody was able or willing to help me to try and understand it. The OFA does that.

Crude is like going to Monte Carlo and if one can master it with a reasonable trade strategy it offers up a pot of gold each day. I follow it but have spent more time on the 6E and EURUSD. Now with the OFA I will pay more attention to it and try to harness its' speed.

A low was due on the day of the 24th and it did not disappoint with the double bottom. We will now uptrend for a short while and you may be right with the 100 area.

How do you follow this instrument. Do you have any snaps?

James may I suggest you go into the OFA FREE website and download the order flow software that is shown in my attached snap. This is the paid version but the FREE will give you most of what you see here. CL is just great today not blowing itself out of the water and going crazy. It is days like today one can really capitalize. Me - I am outside working on a deck/patio that has to get done before winter.

Here is a snap with a few trade set-ups marrying my indicator software with the OFA.

A snap today showing several trade set-ups in the overnight and early morning hours of Oct 29/13. Note how the order flow chart compliments my indicator set-ups and vice versa. Following order flow on OFA is simplified once you have a basic understanding of it. There is all kinds of instruction available in recorded webinars on the OFA site available to anyone all the time. The FREE version of the software is available and support forum to go with it. If you have any interest in order flow "Go get it". costs nothing.

I want to add that I have absolutely nothing to do with OFA except that I bought the paid version and just highly recommend it.

Here is the link for the OFA

It has been awhile since I posted on this thread. I wanted to show a snap of the Crude Oil June-14 contract for last Friday. Trying to optimize my setups for maximum performance and I thought we are getting pretty close. The European session at times moves pretty well but other times just dogs along. Generally there is lots of time to enter the trade - PATIENCE is paramount in waiting for the proper setup. The setups I show all give you a 10 tick return almost 100% of the time. For scalpers just take the first 5 or whatever you are comfortable with. Running more than 1 contract can garner some handsome profits. I still feel this is "Casino Royale" but the opportunities are immense.

    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
