long term view here.... Buying till Christmas

 

mental stops on all with catastrophe stops @ -250

 

YM @ 11235

NQ @ 1746

DAX @ 6140

FTSE @ 5233

 

-250 on YM is hardly a catastrophe these days, Wasp. Better widen that to -1000!

Utter madness, Very surprised if we break 300 without some sort of pullback.

 

Just got back to see I have been filled short at 11300, my exit was at 255, unfortunately it did not hit, I have had to move my stop to 310 now, any spike now and I am shafted....

11300-ish is certainly a key level. Tend to think it'll hit 350 before going down much, though.

 

350 would have been a great entry...

Thats nearly 900 ponts without reversing...

where do the experienced emini intraday traders stand on this?

surely a significant move down is due to produce the higher low??

Nice one!

Do I hate it when it does this, clean as a bell premarket and we fall 200 pips in the 1st 5 minutes of the open...

Now trading premarket is a viable alternative for me...

good memory wasp!

 

in my case always done both, maily cable and dow. dow is my main now as i can get a few solid hours in each night.

 

the onset of full time trading will see me exploring fx again, probably just the main ones and on a larger t/f than im operating on now. great work on the 1000 pip btw well done....probably makes the events of earlier in the week seem distant now. you still taking a break?

Still in 2 minds... That earlier event still bugs me!

 

I want the break but I also have a goal this year which I haven't reached as yet. I really should reach it in order for next year to be ideal from day 1 but may just take a week or two of then try and finish up pre December if I can.

 

I think swinging FX is a great idea. Have this discussion with FW a lot and why he wouldn't swing but I do is the 24hr market (no gaps except weekends) so it smooths FX out so nicely that you really can just ride it constantly like you were on a rollercoaster.

that was exactly my thinking, have something ticking over on fx while playing the indicies intra day. will have to get more monitors though! 2 is only just enough as it is.

 

lol! I was actually contemplating trading US Stocks whilst FX ran in the background but don't want to over stress my poor brain!

    • Date: 3rd June 2024. OPEC+ Announces Gradually Higher Supply and NVIDIA a New Accelerator.     Oil declines as the European Cash Open edges closer. Oil prices have fallen for 4 consecutive days measuring almost 4.00%. OPEC+ members advise the group will have the option to not continue voluntary cuts from September onwards. All US and global indices start Monday’s trading higher after a poor end to May 2024. The bullish price gap illustrates a potential “risk-on” market. NVIDIA announces its next generation of accelerator chips and promises annual upgrades. NVIDIA stocks are already trading 0.55% higher in pre-trading hours. USOil (Crude Oil) – Voluntary Cuts May Gradually Fade! The price of Crude Oil fell almost 4.00% in the last 3 days of last week due to the OPEC+ meeting. The meeting is now at an end and journalists are pointing out 2 key points. The first, is that the OPEC+ group will keep limitations on production as it has since COVID-19. The second, is that countries which have voluntarily added additional cuts will have the option to reduce these cuts from September onwards. According to analysts, the market should not necessarily “overreact”, because if OPEC+ increases supply, it will only be gradual. Additionally, analysts also advise the group will only look to re-introduce production if the market conditions allow it to. Nonetheless, traditionally, additional supply is known by analysts to apply downward pressure on commodities. This is something which can also be seen over the past week, but investors will be keen to see the price drop below the support level.   The support level has been a key psychological level for investors throughout the month of May, specifically on 3 occasions. The price is currently trading below the 50.00 on the RSI and below most longer-term Moving Averages. If the price declines below the 65.00 Fibonacci level at $76.70 per Barrel, momentum will signal possible further decline. USA100 – NVIDIA Announces a New Accelerator Chip! The NASDAQ struggled within the previous week and at one point was down more than 3.00%. However, a large surge of buyers towards the end of Friday’s session saw a strong rebound and the index also trades higher during today’s Asian session. The NASDAQ is currently being influenced by 3 factors. However, investors will also give importance to the pricing of rate adjustments after the US employment data. The first factor prompting investors to increase tech-stock exposure is NVIDIA. The CEO of the company has again advised the technology and AI market will continue to grow and become more aggressive. In addition to this, Mr Huang advised NVIDIA is releasing a new accelerator chip and promises more within the upcoming year. A second positive factor for not only the NASDAQ, but global indices, is most analysts believe the European Central Bank will lower interest rates for the first time in the current cycle. If more global banks decide to reduce the restrictiveness of their monetary policy, stocks will become more attractive. However, only if the move is not a response to potential economic contraction. Lastly investors are also taking advantage of the lower entry point and feel an improved sentiment as Oil prices are declining. Investors hope lower oil prices will apply less upward pressure on inflation.   If the price rises above $18,638.83 the price will form a bullish breakout pattern which indicates upward movement. However, for a stronger and longer-term bullish trend, investors will be keen for the price to increase above the 75-Bar EMA and 100-Bar SMA. These two moving averages are currently priced at $18,658.28 and $18,733.30. Always trade with strict risk management. Your capital is the single most important aspect of your trading business.
