Sunday, find last active Momentum zone(bullish, blue rectangle), wait for break of it with Momentum(bearish), enter short. Protect trade at +1 and got to bed. Doesnt work every Sunday, but more often than not!

When a fire breaks out and the sprinkler system comes and you are standing there looking at the flames being put out then think of a stop loss.

A stop loss doesn't protect jack-sht, it just puts the fire out.

The only real protection is taking profit: you can take profit and move your stop, but just moving your stop isn't really doing anything:

I'm not following the math :(
Are that 5 or 2 lines at risk?

Sorry, I wasn't clear on my question.
Not seeking a method, wondering what broker or how you trade crude when I thought U.S. citizens were not allowed to speculate on oil.

You can trade Crude Oil Light, on futures. I use tradestation.

if just trading a single time frame after the 3 sets does it have to be a 2 sema before you draw your zone? sometimes the 1 shows up pretty quick but the 2 doesnt show up for a while or sometimes at all. I really haven't spent much time studying that indicator.
thanks

No it doesnt have to be a 2 sema or any sema for that fact. Sema is just to pinpoint extremes after the 3 sets.... and as a way to help teach what im looking for in a pullback(up mo, down mo, retest). Alot of my trades, dont even have a sema.
Your on the right track.

If you can draw the zones correctly, delete the semas... you dont need them.
