Its the damn credit crunch that's done it. That and summer. Look at the dailies for the first half of the year and the average daily candle was in the region of 150. For the last month its been about 50 :\

Out for -50

 

Long @ 212.45

 

If this market doesn't start picking up I will be taking a break again. This isn't worth getting out of bed for.

 

moved my stop to B/E as I am very dubious and sceptical right now!

 

EDIT: closed for +49 as technically, I should!

 

Short 212.95

 

I know this is going to keep going up but have to stick with the plan and reverse on the next candle if need be.

I'm holding for just a bit longer... yes, it never closed about that last resistance band, but I'd like to wait just a tad longer to see if there's any follow-through.

 

My stop is at b/e.

Alright... last attempt here... closed for -14 and long from 212.25 again. Let's ignore the short-term drivel.

 

That last hourly candle still failed to close above the resistance band, so I closed at +60 and have reversed short at 212.85.

And I'm out for -50...

 

You were right, Wasp. That 4-hour suggested further strength. Tricked again... I thought waiting one hour would make a difference. But it didn't.

 

Lol... such is life. Time to reload.

 

PS: So far, not so good on this strat. But I'm not abandoning it yet. Bad luck happens.

Short GJ 212.51...

 

EDIT: You beat me to the punch, Wasp! Jeez you're fast. I mean't 213.51.

 

PS: Just so everyone knows, I am NOT copying Wasp's trades. I'm making these decisions on my own. I never saw his post before I executed the trade.

No one has gone short @ 213.39?? :)

 

Hey there Jack... Howdie doodie... Wasp and I are the only one's posting live trades here (that I'm aware of), and we both shorted from 213.50. ;) I'm holding mine... I'm assuming Wasp has as well. He usually posts if he reverses. I'm posting at the same time I do things as well.

 

If you feel inclined, post away. Discussions of these trades are here:

Moved stop to b/e. Price on the 4-hour closed below my S/R line at 96. I'm looking for a test of the 20/30 zone before going long.

Alright Wasp... now I'm wondering why?... Didn't your 4-hour candle close below your support line? Where is your support line? I have mine marked at 212.96.

Be ready to adapt and update at any given time.... 212.85 is now an important level/price and thus a new line is drawn!

Price isn't busting back through this support line, so I'm closing for +53 and going long at 212.97.

 

YEAH YEAH... I know... now no one believes that I'm not copying Wasp.

For once, I am unsure and cconfused!

 

50/50 at the moment and whilst I am unsure, I am staying long for now!!

 

Wouldn't you know it... No sooner did I post that and price broke support. Jeez I hate that! I'll wait and see how this 30 min bar closes - maybe even the next hourly bar before making a choice.

Wasp... look at cable. It has also tested a major support zone and is testing resistance now. If it busts resistance, I figure long on GJ may be wise. If not...

 

EDIT: Cable is also fairly oversold.

    • Date: 26th November 2024. Trump’s tariff threats boosted Dollar; Peso, Loonie, Gold & Oil Lower. The Trump trade picked up steam as investors cheered his pick for Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent. Beliefs he will be a steadying voice in the administration’s fiscal measures, while still following President-elect Trump’s tariff and tax commitments, underpinned. Asia & European Sessions:   Trump threatened on Monday to impose sweeping new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico on his first day as US President to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. He would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China as one of his first acts as president of the US. Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan aims to cut the deficit to 3% of GDP, boost growth to 3%, and increase oil production to 3 mln barrels. Treasury yields dove in a curve flattener, extending their drops through the session, on expectations inflation will decelerate. A strong 2-year auction also supported. The Dow led the charge, climbing 0.99% to 44,736, a new record peak as the rally broadens. The S&P500 climbed to 6020, a session peak, but finished with a 0.3% gain to 5987. The NASDAQ closed 0.27% higher. Today, stock markets in Europe are posting broad losses, with the DAX down -0.6%, the FTSE 100 0.4%, after a largely weaker close across Asia. ECB: Lane suggests ECB must be open-minded on speed of rate cuts. The ECB’s Chief Economist said in a speech on Monday evening that “remaining open-minded about the speed and scale of adjustments is in fact a valuable strategy across various environments, as different situations may necessitate distinct approaches.” This careful, step-by-step strategy enables us to observe the responses of the economy to our decisions and continuously refine our understanding of their impacts.” The comments leave the door open to a 50 bp move in December, but also tie in with our expectation that the central bank will deliver a 25 bp while tweaking the forward guidance and commit to additional moves. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex hit a session high of 107.50 and is currently lower at 106.85. Mexican peso and Canadian dollar slumped as the dollar is being viewed as a haven after the comments of President-elect Donald Trump on tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. USDCAD spiked to 1.4177 and USDMXN rallied to 20.74. Oil and Gold lost ground, in part on cooling geopolitical risks, and on Trump trades. Oil dropped -3.03% to $69.09 per barrel, in part on the Trump trade and on talk of a potential cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Similarly, gold fell -3.26% to $2605 per ounce.
