welp, fast market, lots of slippage , wonder if any platforms can keep up at open
bet people are kicking their boxes a little to see if they are still moving
unless you are co-located next to cme or something
somehow tradovate is better, rithmic lags
put in an order and get a large spread fill on rithmic lmao
but tradovate keeps up, strange..
magnet at S, LT MA
weird how GC and AUD/JPY kinda static, though VX should be up, 6E effects
discounting the virus concerns, GDP and KC Fed #s previously OK
kinda like, OK guys we mark up prelim levels first, so looking forward, MA is OK to fill
//
COV, if this really started last fall, then the rate should be backdated, like the Q1 pump was a hedge playout
like you can hedge for the year now, and then accumulate through the seasons, something about taxes, etc.
//
just tiny micros for rest of day, more to get practice in the vol environment, and get feel for slippage
also feels more like trading noise around the S magnet, like larger players trying to limp into positions

settling into a style, tried various but took some things that worked earlier, isolated them and filtered out the noise
not only being correct but the magnitude is a strong enforcer, vice versa, being wrong and very wrong
can see how profit factor would be a big selector for evolving strategies

jeebus thing is so fast rn
risk is pretty flat , saying more of a tech bounce, nothing changed yet, flows slightly neg
GC is resting, CL as well, looking at events later in the week
micros a good hedge in the holding push, kinda annoying blips
feels like a curling process, challenging the resistance
many sitting and waiting prolly, hedged and already out a bit, shifting position
//
strange sentiment about, closing doors and such, less face to face dealing, physical travel
might be a boon for virtual apps actually, AI, etc.
however, even robotics need supply chains, hard to manage with the disruption
US supply should benefit from desire to find backup sources
so maybe US is still cleanest dirty shirt, cheap crude might not be a bad thing, XLE looking low
forgot about euro, having a pullback , dixie strength ok still
//
last part of day looks too crunchy, ides of march, so whatever picture the tape wants to paint i'll look later
//
maybe relief rallies in commodities, CL esp, with 6C and 6A hitting recent lows, maybe a tell for dollar weakness along with ZN

low volume channel
ziggy zaggy and DT
@CL pit close we shut down and let it paint LL
if yday was weak today feels abnormally strong
from mini slips to mini rips, actually ranged somehow
oh, that must have been a support, and it just broke
just like previous must have been a resistance that also snapped
ah i see now, S1 is a magnet, but S becomes R
rather learn and correct mistakes than get lucky, the mantra
still, try to keep the mistakes small as you go

VX is surging and things are getting wild
higher than several years, possibly past decade
this is not normal at all, contingencies, etc.
not as much volume today
