Interesting action on ES yesterday. Afternoon rally was quite interesting.

 

I am still cautious on the long side for ES... take a look at Nikkei profile.

July 8th showed long liquidation... "b" profile after higher value placement from July 4th. Overlapping value prior to the 4th is confirming longs caught on the wrong side... hence the down trend and liquidation on the 8th.

 

However, US markets rallied yesterday. Today (9th) the Nikkei gapped up, spent the entire morning rangebound then dropped. The "P" profile shows this as a potential short covering day with a close near the low of the range. Yesterday could be a bull trap on the ES. See chart below.

Afternoon rally looked good but value is still enclosed within the previous day and not higher. What the DAX and FTSE do may be key today for the ES. (DAX is rangebound but sensing some selling pressure at the moment). Crude is slighly up as well.

sods law that is!

 

Yeah, almost closed the next one too early as well, but somehow managed to hold on and actually make more points than expected. Slippage sometimes works in your favour, although the Dow has now continued south, of course!

Yes, theres some swinging around at the moment isnt there. See oil is coming down still... $136 Aug delivery, should help a rally in indices......

Doesn't seem to be working at the moment, Buzz. Just wish I'd kept with my short from about 400...

 

PS. c200 close, maybe?

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
