Can't Make Money After 11:00!

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

 

I primarily day trade options

 

I'm pretty good at finding deals in the morning to trade, but after 11:00 I'm usually stuck for the day

 

I usually sell before 11:00

 

I want to know how to make money after 11:00

 

I don't like the fact I'm staring at charts all day without knowing the proper action to take

 

Does anyone know of a book that explains in detail how to make good trades later in the day? What I need to look for?

 

Thanks in Advance

Easy... do exactly the opposite!

If you see buy signal you sell and if you se sell signal you buy!

That is what I do in trading gold and silver.

Allmost all signals between 11 and 13h are false!

What kind of option trades you make in the morning?

Selling what exactly? Calls, puts? In-, at- or out-of-the-money?

I mean how can you day trade options if they're some kind of mid-range deals...

Yes, good question. Maybe that's the reason why you can't trade after 11:00 :confused:

Hello Youngsequan (mms),

You are a perfect candidate for Market Profile

By 11am the bell curve will be formed and you can use the info to trade, maybe.

Go and read up about it. Theres lots of info available

But remember its NOT a trading system.

Its very useful background knowledge of where the markets are headed

Brooks warns of midday consolidation

Joe Ross doesnt trade between 11.30 and 2.30. He writes trading courses- much easier.

Please dont listen to filip who suggests trading the opposite of the signal. That sort of statement needs testing, unless he sends us his trading profit & loss account.

regards

no suggestion, but reiteration of others' observations: nothing wrong with specializing in, being adapted to, a time of day. I'd stick to the sweet spot, think about swinging a bigger bat - compensating for the "uncompensated afternoons", as well as the morning missed opportunities.....

Hello Youngsequan,

I was hoping to see a few replys to your question. Nothing!!

So heres my version.

Do you have PRICE ON VOLUME on your charts.

Thats when volume appears on the left hand side of your chart,NOT at the bottom. Turn it on. It should look like a bell curve.Now the fattest part of this bell curve is called BALANCE

Thats where most of the action takes place.

Its also called VALUE. Both the buyers and the sellers agree the price is fair.

Would you buy/ sell at BALANCE / VALUE?

Off course not.

The price ALWAYS moves back to BALANCE/ VALUE

At 11am every day , where is this BALANCE/ VALUE?

Heres the trade.

Buy/ sell outside BALANCE/ VALUE

It always moves back

 

 

Kind regards

yes. regression to mean happens. but the obverse also must happen - progression from mean. 6 of one is much like a half dozen of the other. perhaps trade both. and on the days when progression blows right thru the old extreme, rejoice (if you are aboard)....

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
