I do believe there are opportunities around...infact...lots of times during the NY session its can be more of a waste of time than now..ie moves less clear
Sometimes I just look for exits or entries...and let it ride..

I dont post all my trades because some are just small adds for example.
I try to post the bigger moves...and have multiple small longs or shorts at differnt prices...so I am not all or nothing..( this is easier to do with spread betting ..as margin required is smaller

Today for example on this quiet morning..I have been very cautious...and am up 50...mostly on the Dax all Longs

If I had been more "trade what you see..and dont think" would have been more..as charts were saying BUY from 9.00am...

See you in the PM..
( Sorry..perhaps this is better in the general thread)
But at least its a post here..

Definitely, opportunities all day. But I just feel much more focused if I'm going for one or two decent trades instead of ten. Had enough days in the past where I started of nicely and ended up with a loss. Remember the c&t days
