I'm having problems trading off the 1min because I used to put my stop 10 points behind the entry, now I need 20-25... 5 minutes is a long wait ;)

 

Yes 5 minutes is an eternity and 20 pip spike outs are common off s/r levels...

10 pips is suicidal...

what's your next potential R on the NQ? I have 1710... but it's having a lot of trouble overcoming 1700. If we can't get past here, the YM/ES can start selling and your short might still come good

still a lot of supply present there by the looks of it!

normally I would short here, but the NQ seems to be leading the way and is very strong

 

11130 would have been entry but this made a higher high....interesting, cannot seem to read it very well. Either too late or too early, mght have to wait until post lunch for myself and markets to sync up...

switch level is at 1710 dude....which coincides with my 11175 to 11200 R zone...kinda...

Look at ES perfect DT at YM's equivalent of R 1222. YM decides to make a HH instead:( but maybe just a spike out and close below R. Doubts creeping in whether we can hold 11k now...

11050 short would be the obvious pullback level for entry.

Then await breakout and pullback again for continuation...

It could go both ways, but with that reaction on support premarket, that's the third time it does not want to go lower. This increased the odds of breaking higher imo... but we'll have to wait and see (after dinner)!

Unless someone in the US says something that makes sense (unlikely), the Dow's going to be back at 10,700, even if we get a bit of a retrace first.

 

something that doesn't make sense seems to work too :o

 

I didn't expect it to fall back so quickly in all honesty...

hi guys, there's not been a whole lot of participation lately (I'm not pointing the finger at anyone), but there is interest from a bunch of other guys who would like to participate in either posting live trades or commenting on charts and helping us figure out what the market is going to do next!

 

Unfortunately, right now, these guys can't access our threads because we are only visible for premium members. When we first got here, Soultrader was so kind to provide us with this incentive, but I think we must admit that we are coming up to a point where there is no need to keep things behind closed doors. There are no trolls around here, and those who aren't interest don't participate.

 

So, unless there are serious objections, I suggest we move everything over to the public area and see how things go. To be honest, I don't suspect much change, I just think we would all benefit from having others contribute as well. Over the course of the last few weeks several members have complained about being alone here. That would no longer be the case then :)

 

Wasp & myself are 200% behind the idea. I hope the rest is too!

 

Thanks to all those who have been loyally contributing in the past, and we

hope you continue to do so in the future.

Good idea, FW. I'd virtually given up posting trades recently, partly because there didn't seem to be anyone else around.

 

Yeah I hear you... I've spent some time in the chatroom too and there is usually more animo there. Some guys have expressed their interest in this forum though, so let's hope we can step up the action a bit :)

The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver.

Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94.

Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year.
