My first Trade is complete in the Russell, it was a very good trade, i starting to get familiarized with this vehicle, it is very very good to trade, range bound market, and likes to RUN!!!!....i took my 20 ticks, but easily could have taken 50 ticks....anyway i leave here the analysis...in the attached image.
Greetings,...
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Hello all, i have my chart ready, finish my morning prep, there are mixed sentiment in the markets, been friday i think there will be high volatility, with a good risk management lots of ticks could be made.
I see triple top in the crude but looking at momentum price could try to break the PHOD and test new highs.
Hello, I would like to share with you a fellow trader analysis about the current market.
"The euro currency futures are trading above the PHOD so we’re bullish on the Euro, but just like the other markets we’re wondering if the big jump on the news overnight is still strong enough to keep going higher. We’re already seeing the highs start to form on these markets, and if the dollar index moves off the lows we will see EVERYTHING including the euro start to tumble"
The euro and the dollar index have the strongest correlation, along with other currency futures contracts, so beware the dollar index is going to be the one to move this euro today, or it may not, we shall see soon. We can see an easy spot to sell short at the highs of the bull price channel and the trigger-zone resistance at 2685 and 2775.
The gold futures market is also moving higher this morning with the dollar index dropping. Clearly there is fear in these markets or else the gold futures would not be moving higher on supposedly bullish news from Europe. Why would gold futures be rising? Fear! Sell these highs on gold this morning and remember the line in the sand on the dollar index is 81.685 and that will mean a rising dollar index off the lows will give us falling prices on the markets we trade.
i just closed my first trade of the month, in a slow market, i went for 10 Ticks but got some slippage and got 9 ticks, but it´s ok, price broke a minor resistance, and held the base, so i decided to go long and ended well.
See image attached, the trade was in 5 range chart. (not my usual chart but in slow markets this works great!)
Took some trades, but trade in choppy markets is not really the best, i have taken 3 trades, 1 loss 2 win, for a daily profit of +11 Ticks, the First trade it was a really not a good decision, market was short bias, and took a long in the "Middle" i really forgot "Don´t fiddle with the middle".
But i´m positive now in my account... it is interesting how the market is reacting and i think "they" have something ready to announce or some news that will spark the market somewhere...
Today, my lesson is: when choppy markets dominate, stay away, of course when you are a master you can trade any situation... but i´m not yet a master....so i stay away...
ended the day, +11 Ticks.... good?? bad?? at least my account is $110 plus and not minus!!!...
Well, after a relaxing day, it is time to make money!!!,
After a day off today will be exactly as a Monday!, market slow at early hours, and looking for fuel!!, dont forget today release the **Crude Oil Inventories** at 11 EDT, and we have news from Norway Oil,
- Norway oil industry group commented that Norway to lock out 6.5k workers from July 10th- Statoil prepares to shut down Norwegian shelf output and saw lost revenues from production halt at approx NOK520M/day- Norway Labor Ministry stated that the oil lockout was legal, decline to say if govt will intervene
i Just closed my 3rd trade today, so far i´m +35 ticks, and i just will wait for Crude Oil inventories trade..The employment went well this helped the CL price go down a bit, to reach my target (Open).
