[14:24] {Threei} ?
[14:24] {samire} broke .9
[14:24] {Threei} it hit 1:1
[14:24] {Threei} what do we do when it happens?
[14:24] {samire} be
[14:25] {samire} it did it reach 39.10 ?????
[14:25] {Threei} As the price moves in our favor, full exit or partial exits are taken at the levels that we call risk/reward ratios. In this case, 1:1 will be reached around $10.10 (10 cents initial risk to 10 cents profit). Scalpers take full exit at this level; day traders take first partial and trail their stop under the breakeven point. Next partial is taken around 1:2, etc. Most often our partials consist of 1/2, 1/4 and 1/4.
[14:25] {Threei} samire... do you have charts??
[14:25] {samire} yes

[14:59] {Threei} feels like selloff toard the end of day
[15:02] {RonS} U.S. commodity regulators are examining whether word of a decision to coordinate a release of global oil stockpiles was leaked ahead of Thursday’s announcement by the International Energy Agency, according to a person familiar with the matter.Officials with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as well as market participants have pointed to unusual trading
[15:03] {RonS} in the oil-futures market before the IEA’s announcement that it would release 60 million barrels of oil, the person said.

[15:31] {Threei} even though it sdoesn't really participate in trading, but finding the letters on a keyboard requires certain effort
