Hi Mate

I've been putting a fair bit of time into spreads so I haven't been focused on the Aussie outrights much at all hence the lack of updates. I was just keeping this journal more about that....

July 2nd

After the strong lead from Wall Street overnight, the Aussie market powered on this morning.

There was a quick run up early that I didn't get on and I was eying the first PB I could. We got a good...

Well it was RBA rate decision time and it turned out to be a tricky day.

I actually enjoy trading on days when there is big data due out. The main reason being that I don't often expect price to...

Just cable Ross. So my definition of "amazing" is purely anecdotal :)

It's about as good as I can hope for until the NBN rolls out as I understand it. I'm definitely no expert though.

Back into it after a couple of weeks off. In that time I re-jigged my trading a little in terms of my focus and my structure (if you could call it that).

I also moved house and now have an amazing...

Good to hear from you mate.

I don't know much about the Indian indices, but I'd imagine it would be an interesting one to be involved in going forward.

Very little to report today.

It was a quiet day of trading and a bit of a churn fest in reality.

There wasn't much I was interested in at all.

There were a few spreads I liked the look of...

Yep I'm with you. That's a great way of doing it.

Interesting with the DAX and FTSE.

I can tell you like the volatile markets given the ones you follow and trade.

Good luck with the trading.

I used to watch the H-shares, but I guess it's like anything when it comes to correlations, the leader might change day to day. So maybe one day it was HHI then the next HSI.

Great to hear from you.

Yes I definitely watch others when trading SPI. A bit less so now, but when I first started I would follow 6A, Nikkei, Yen, H Shares, ES, Dax etc.

A reasonably quiet start to my week. I did little yesterday and wasn't expecting huge moves today given the long weekend.

I found a bit of buying early which was good for a few ticks. I still like...

Great to hear from you.

I've watched the Hong Kong Futures a bit as they sometimes give a bit of a lead for the SPI I've noticed. You're right about the volatility too. I haven't...

Interesting yet quiet days trade in the ZN.

We started with a weaker tone as Bund was dragging us down after a poor auction.

We ended up pushing lower on the open and pulled back a touch before...

Hey MS

No I'm not trading the SPI for the next week. It's just too tough to put all those hours in.

I think you need to be even more focused with the SPI as the moves are faster.

Unfortunately I only got a couple of ticks out of those big buyers. Would've liked more :)

I'm going to be taking a look at the ZN for a little bit so I'll be doing a few late nights for a while.

It was nice to be back in a liquid market, but it wasn't an easy day for sure.

We saw a bit of a sell off this morning, but I didn't like the action all that much.

Volume was thin and patchy on the DOM and we were skipping between prices on not much at all.

I still use Xtrader for all entries. It's only in recent times that I've just been playing around with it as an add on. It is quite useful as you can miss things on Xtrader at times.
