In other news, been dealing with Gain Futures delays lately. Bid and Ask regularly do not keep up with Last Traded Price data so the DOM looks like this often, thus rendering the bid and ask useless!  Developers are working on it they tell me but no idea of when it will be fixed.  I expect better.  Platform had been rock solid for so long.

Tues. 9/17 +1.2%

2:00pm CDT - A reckless day which had the potential of being down 15% or more! I was up early but was long just before the Saudis said they'll be back to full production soon.  I had not placed a stop yet and by the time I bailed, lost $800 on that trade. CL data delays on my platform did not help matters. A few revenge attempts later, I decided to place a final short with 100 tick stop and target just inside yesterday's low.  I got lucky and target hit. Or maybe I'm finally learning something after all these years (on that last trade).
