10:20 This is a powerful gravity mean. :haha:

 

That sideways movement at 1010 is telling.

 

I guess is better to go back after 1:50 :)

Against your best advise :doh: , (I am so ashamed :crap: ). I actually took a couple of shots. 2 BE and one loss.

 

1st one was a RET in the trend that formed, but after hitting the other extreme of the mean reverting area (that is how I decided to call it, but if it has another name please let me know)

 

2nd one was a REV off the mean at 50, my thinking was, they don't want it above the mean, then why not short. It ended up being a SCR.

 

3rd Given what happened at 2, I just marked the entry point and decided to watch until they proved they wanted to go out of the range.

 

4th Some buyers showed up above the OR so I decided I wanted to join also, but, they rapidly gave up and so did I.

 

If one is trading mean reversion, there was only one trade, if one doesn't mind trading toward the mean. Given that price had stretched 10pts away from the mean to the upside, one could expect it to do the same thing to the downside. One could then go long at the higher low. This would be exited around 62.

Something to remember:

 

"RULE #3: If you've been folding a lot, for a long time in the game, and you're starting to think that maybe it's time you got in and played a few hands again – that's not a good enough reason. Keep folding."

The Importance of the Small Win:

 

I was a psychology major in college - I've always been interested in psychology and both poker and trading have given me some direction in my continued education. I've said elsewhere that I believe creating a very specific morning routine before the trading day is important. This is all about the small win.

 

The night before a game Michael Jordan would watch a tape that was prepared for him. It was clips of his opponent and their go to moves. A statistician had analyzed his opponent's tendencies and put together 10 or 20 short clips of that player making their go to move from that spot on the floor. Basically MJ did his homework.

 

On game day Michael would eat a specific breakfast. He would chose a particular car, play a particular playlist and drive a particular route to the stadium. Upon arrival he would go through his routine to prepare himself. He would change into his uniform, always wearing his UNC shorts under his Bulls uniform, always putting on his wristband up to his elbow. A few minutes on a warmup bike, followed by a specific stretching routine, followed by a shooting routine where he shot a specific number of shots for each area of the floor, working from the layups out to the 3-point line. Then he put his warmups back on and put on headphones to listen to a specific playlist. This whole routine would take around 2 hours.

 

When we think of athletes doing this kind of stuff we often call the "superstitious". What MJ and almost all successful professional athletes are actually illustrating is the power or the "small win". MJ's pattern was a habit. He had done each of these things so many times that there wasn't any need to think about them. Each step in the habit was a small win. Each small win leads to the next and on it's own seems insignificant. What each small win does is reinforce the idea of winning. MJ puts himself in the right mindset and each small win builds to the goal of playing his best that day.

 

Some researchers were interested in figuring out why some dieters repeatedly failed to lose weight. They found a bunch of failed dieters and asked them to keep a food journal - to write down when and what each of them ate each day. There was no request to diet in the study at all - it was just meant to give the researchers some data. Something far more interesting occurred. Some of the failed dieters made using the food journal into a habit. Others were only recording what they ate from time to time. After six months of journal entries they found that the dieters who had made the journal into a habit had lost a significant amount of weight whereas the other group had remained the same.

 

What caused this? First the journal acted as a tool for recognizing a pattern. The participants who used the journal regularly noticed (for example) that around 10 each day at work they would eat a doughnut. Just by making this observation they could adjust their behavior by switching out the doughnut for a healthier alternative. Once one small change was seen and recorded it gave these failed dieters a sense of accomplishment and a positive feedback loop was formed. They saw a pattern, they made a plan to change their behavior, the followed their plan and booked a small win and they recorded the results. This made them feel good about themselves for a change and many more small wins naturally followed.

 

If you can come up with a method to track your small wins and a morning routine to create a winning frame of mind you greatly improve you chance for success. The end of this document is especially important for this: http://cdn3.traderslaboratory.com/forums/attachments/131/38017d1398254234-developing-plan-trading-journal-developing-planwst.pdf

Thanks Niko. We didn't get far with the 2nd open either. Another movement around a mean. Eventually someone will decide to make a breakout. We'll be ready for them at the extremes.

No trades today (see above), but it does appear that traders, despite the appearance of treading water, are inching slowly but inexorably toward the upper limit of the trend channel, probably in anticipation of Friday's job numbers. If this is true, then tomorrow will likely shape up to be an extraordinarily boring day. If not . . .

wolfhounds are an amazing breed... have you owned one?

 

No, I never had one. I would need to start making a lot of points just to buy the dog food to feed one of those. I think if you don't feed them constantly, they just eat you instead,

Hi DBP,

a couple of questions that popped into my head about this quote.

 

Assuming one is happy to trade both towards the short term mean (like the rubber band approach), and also with continuations away from the short term mean (probably back toward the longer term mean when trading at the extremes - more a bouncing ball - for an analogy)

 

In your experience for the short term mean - trading toward or away from it - is one easier than the other, or occurs more than the other?....of course the short term will occur more often that the long term, but would you say that the majority of good intra-day moves are away from the intra-day/o'night mean?

 

I know often these are mutliple layered questions and I hope it makes sense but I thought it might be interesting to see if there was a particular area that you thought easier, more profitable or more reliable? Lets assume you were only given a choice between only trading toward or away from the short term mean.

 

(*I have my suspicions on what I think but I would like to hear from your experience)

thanks.

 

The best trades are at the extremes since those represent maximum fear and confusion among those who don't know that that's where they're trading. Trading around the means is always choppy. Which is why, after reversing off the lower limit of the March TC, I'd rather wait until we get to the other side.But one can trade the SLA without considering AMT. I choose to trade both whenever possible.

 

As to multiple means, I consider only two: the mean of the 2009 channel and the mean of the March channel (there is currently a confluence between the two). The little trading ranges and ultra-short-term trend channels provide clues to ultra-short-term sentiment, but they aren't anything I'd trade, particularly since hardly anyone sees them. But then I'm content not to trade until the best opportunities arise.

 

There are occasions when price launches itself off the mean after having had a lay-by for an extended period of time, but these tend to be less reliable than bounces off the mean from either extreme. One sometimes sees opportunities whereby he can enter before price reaches the mean, then hold until he determines whether or not price will pass through to the other side, as with yesterday. More often, however, again, trading around the mean tends to be choppy. I'd rather not bother. Keep in mind that this is not a mechanical approach, and I trade far less than anyone else who is attempting to implement it.

 

Thanks - I agree prime trades are probably at the extremes.....and given what you said about trading rarely, only using the 2 means and also not often using the micro channels/ means etc, I guess then its hard to tell.

 

Thinking out loud.....if you wanted to more actively trade this.

I would imagine it might be worth investigating if filters are worth it.

 

It's not a matter of "actively trading" but of locating the best opportunities and trading size. Otherwise, one is just overtrading with no particular purpose.

 

eg; if longer term mean is trending down, and you are at the upper trend channel, then only take SLA shorts, if longer term mean is up, only take longs at the lower channel.

If at the mean - take both but realise you are at the mean and maybe be extra vigilant at exiting.

 

This might be overkill, but hence my question - do you see better moves away from the over night means, as opposed to reverting back toward them when at the extremes?

 

This is part of characterizing one's market. But as for overnight means and moves and so forth, I'm first interested in where traders have been unable to find trades, up and down. Whether or not they will continue to have these difficulties after the NY open gives me a clue as to the direction for the day. If both sides open up, as has often been the case recently, this presents additional challenges and difficulties. Being alert and decisive and quick matter more than being thoughtful and philosophical and what iffy.

 

Also - I hope these questions are not too repetative and part of the 1000s of posts. I hope instead they may be more of a QandA above and beyond simply 'how do you draw a line?".

 

Let me know it they are repeats.

thanks

 

(I like this editing format - good one TL)

No need to post another chart since nothing has changed other than price got within a few points of the upper limit of the March trend channel overnight. This is too soon given that the jobs reports aren't out until tomorrow morning. However, the SLA/AMT is about trading extremes, not news. Therefore, it's business as usual.

 

For those trading pre-market, the DL was broken several hours ago and a retracement occurred shortly after 0700. Whether the SL holds or not remains to be seen.

 

0900: SL was tested at 0830 and held, providing another opportunity to short.

 

Post 1100: Tons of double bottoms, double tops, Dogs. Difficult to stay on track and pay close attention to the Dogs. Without the Dogs, this would have been quite a bit worse.

 

12pts of the "win", of course, was one trade.

9:24 Seems like we formed a TR between 78-80.

 

BTW, is there a way to move my journal to the W forum, is not like it has an audience where it is.:haha:

 

I don't have moderator privileges outside this forum. However, if you want to open up a journal here, I can move your "trading posts" from here to there. I'd like to keep this thread as brief as possible. I'm sort of done with thousand-post threads.

 

Thank you. I have already opened my journal. Will only post daily analysis here then.

 

It would be best if you were to post that in your journal. Otherwise we end up with another thousand-post thread that nobody reads.

This is the journal where I will post my prep-work and my after market analysis. Is called SLAAMT because it is based in that and it is called ZEN because what I believe I lack the most is patience.

 

Given that chat is gone, and that I enjoy writing what I am thinking during the day, I will write here whatever I think is important when I am in the market.

9:59 Seems like the same drill from the last two days. the mean is at 79, they tried down and couldn't find any counterparts below PML and then tried up and couldn't find any buyers above PMH.. Now they seem to be struggling around 83, but this just seems like chop to me.

 

10:03 LLs and LHs, this is a trend, not that it is tradable, but it is a trend nonetheless.

 

10:09 Still no buyers above 88, and the SL was pierced. Two choices here, If the manage to rally to 87 take a long ignoring 88 or wait for 88 to be take out. Lets see.

 

10:12 88 held

 

10:15 Looks like sellers finally realized they were not gonna get better bids and just decided to dump their contracts, lets see if there is still any relevant demand at the mean

 

10:16 No demand and looks like the last ones in the boat are dumping their contracts. Now, will this have enough strength to beat the gravity of 79?

      Hey guys , what are the main things you look for to detect if the consolidation area is accumulating or distributing ? 
      1 ) I see springs in top , still markup happens and it becomes accumulation area and vice versa
      2) There is lots of volume absorption in support line and still markdown occurs.
      3) sometimes in market high / low it becomes re-accumulation  / re-distribution
      Is there any clear way to find it ?

    • Date: 2nd April 2025.   Market on Edge: Tariff Announcement and Volatility Ahead!   The US economic and employment data continues to deteriorate with the job vacancies figures dropping to a 5-month low. In addition to this, the IMS Manufacturing PMI also fell below expectations. However, both the US Dollar and Gold declined simultaneously following the release of the two figures, an uncommon occurrence in the market. Traders expect a key factor to be today’s ‘liberation day’ where the US will impose tariffs on imports. USDJPY - Traders Await Tariff Confirmation! Traders looking to determine how the USDJPY will look today will find it difficult to determine until the US confirms its tariff plan. Today is the day when Trump previously stated he would finalize and announce his tariff plan. The administration has not yet released the policy, but investors expect it to be the most expansionary in a century. President Trump is due to speak at 20:00 GMT. On HFM's Calendar the speech is stated as "US Liberation Day Tariff Announcement". Currently, analysts are expecting Trump’s Tariff Plan to impose tariffs on the EU, chips and pharmaceuticals later today as well as reciprocal tariffs. Economists have a good idea of how these tariffs may take effect, but reciprocal tariffs are still unspecified. In addition to this, 25% tariffs on the car industry will start tomorrow. The tariffs on the foreign cars industry are a factor which will particularly impact Japan. Although, traders should note that this is what is expected and is not yet finalised. Last week, President Trump stated that he would implement retaliatory tariffs but allow exemptions for certain US trade partners. Treasury Secretary Mr Bessent and National Economic Council Director Mr Hassett suggested that the restrictions would primarily target 15 countries responsible for the bulk of the US trade deficit. However, yesterday, Trump contradicted these statements, asserting that additional duties would be imposed on any country that has implemented similar measures against US products. The day’s volatility will depend on which route the US administration takes. The harshness of the policy will influence both the Japanese Yen as well as the US Dollar.   USDJPY 5-Minute Chart   US Economic and Employment Data The JOLT Job Vacancies figure fell below expectations and is lower than the previous month’s figure. The JOLT Job Vacancies read 7.57 million whereas the average of the past 6 months is 7.78 million. The ISM Manufacturing Index also fell below the key level of 50.00 and was 5 points lower than what analysts were expecting. The data is negative for the US Dollar, particularly as the latest release applies more pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. However, this is unlikely to happen if the trade policy ignites higher and stickier inflation. In the Bank of Japan’s Governor's latest speech, Mr Ueda said that the tariffs are likely to trigger higher inflation. USDJPY Technical Analysis Currently, the Japanese Yen Index is the worst performing of the day while the US Dollar Index is more or less unchanged. However, this is something traders will continue to monitor as the EU session starts. In the 2-hour timeframe, the USDJPY is trading at the neutral level below the 75-bar EMA and 100-bar SMA. The RSI and MACD is also at the neutral level meaning traders should be open to price movements in either direction. On the smaller timeframes, such as the 5-minute timeframe, there is a slight bias towards a bullish outcome. However, this is only likely if the latest bearish swing does not drop below the 200-Bar SMA.     The key resistant level can be seen at 150.262 and the support level at 149.115. Breakout levels are at 149.988 and 149.674. Key Takeaway Points: Job vacancies hit a five-month low, and the ISM Manufacturing PMI missed expectations, adding pressure on the Federal Reserve regarding interest rate decisions. Traders await confirmation on Trump’s tariff policy, which is expected to impact the EU, chips, pharmaceuticals, and foreign car industries. The severity of the tariffs will influence both the JPY and the USD, with traders waiting for final policy details. The Japanese Yen Index is the worst index of the day while the US Dollar Index is unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.

    • HLF Herbalife stock, watch for a bull flag breakout above 9.02 at https://stockconsultant.com/?HLF
    • Date: 1st April 2025.   Will Gold’s Rally Hold Strong as New Trade Tariffs Take Effect Tomorrow?   Gold continues to increase in value for a sixth consecutive day and is trading more than 17% higher in 2025. Amid fear of higher inflation, a recession and the tariffs war escalating investors continue to invest into Gold pushing demand higher. The trade policy from April 2nd onwards continues to be a key factor for the whole market. Can Gold maintain its upward trend? Trade Policy From Tomorrow Onwards Starting as soon as tomorrow, a 25% tariff will be imposed on all passenger cars imported into the United States. While this White House policy is anticipated to negatively affect European industrial performance, it will also lead to higher transportation and maintenance costs for everyday American taxpayers. The negative impact expected on both the EU and US is one of the reasons investors continue to buy Gold. Additionally, last month, President Donald Trump announced reciprocal sanctions against any trade partners that impose import restrictions on US goods. Furthermore, tariffs on products from Canada and the EU could increase even more if they attempt to coordinate a response. Overall, investors continue to worry that new trade barriers will prompt retaliatory measures, particularly from China, the Eurozone, and Japan. Any retaliation is likely to escalate the trade conflict and prompt another reaction from the US. Experts at Goldman Sachs and other investment banks warn that this will lead to rising inflation and unemployment. They also caution that it could effectively halt economic growth in the US.   XAUUSD 1-Hour Chart   The Weakness In The US Dollar Another factor which is allowing the price of XAUUSD to increase in value is the US Dollar which has been unable to maintain any bullish momentum. Despite last week’s Core PCE Price Index rising to its highest level since February 2024, the US Dollar has been unable to see any significant rise in value. Due to the US Dollar and Gold's inverse correlation, the price of Gold is benefiting from the Dollar weakness. Investors worry that new trade barriers will prompt retaliatory measures from China, the Eurozone, and Japan, potentially escalating the conflict. Experts at The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. believe that such actions by the US administration will drive rising inflation and unemployment while effectively halting economic growth in the country. Can Gold Maintain Momentum? When it comes to technical analysis, the price of Gold is not trading at a price where oscillators are indicating the instrument is overbought. The Relative Strength Index currently trades at 68.88, outside of the overbought area, since Gold’s price fell 0.65% during this morning’s session. However, even with this decline, the price still remains 0.40% higher than the day’s open price. In terms of fundamental analysis, there continues to be plenty of factors indicating the price could continue to rise. However, the price movement of the week will also partially depend on the employment data from the US. The US is due to release the JOLTS Job Vacancies for February this afternoon, the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change tomorrow, and the NFP Change and Unemployment Rate on Friday. If all data reads higher than expectations, investors may look to sell to lock in profits at the high price. Key Takeaway Points: Gold’s Rally Continues – Up 17% in 2025 as investors seek safety from inflation, recession fears, and trade tensions. Trade War Impact – New US tariffs and potential retaliation from China, the EU, and Japan drive uncertainty, boosting Gold demand. Weak US Dollar – The Dollar’s struggle supports Gold’s rise due to their inverse correlation. Gold’s Outlook – Uptrend may continue, but US jobs data could trigger profit-taking.

    • Date: 31st March 2025.   Trump Confirms Tariffs on All Countries, Sending Stocks Lower.   The NASDAQ continues to trade lower due to the US confirming the latest tariffs will be on all countries. In addition to this, bearish volatility also is largely due to the higher inflation data from Friday. The NASDAQ declines to its lowest price since September 11th 2024. Core PCE Price Index - Inflation Increases Again! The PCE Price Index read 2.5% aligning with expert forecasts not triggering any alarm bells. However, the Core PCE Price Index rose from 0.3% to 0.4% MoM and from 2.7% to 2.8% YoY, signalling growing inflationary pressure. This increases the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will maintain elevated interest rates for an extended period. The NASDAQ fell 2.60% due to the higher inflation reading which is known to pressure the stock market due to pressure on consumer demand and a more hawkish Federal Reserve. Boston Fed President Susan Collins recently commented that tariffs could drive up inflation, though the long-term impact remains uncertain. She told journalists that a short-term spike is the most probable outcome but believes the current pause in monetary policy adjustments is appropriate given the prevailing uncertainties. Although, certain investment banks such as JP Morgan actually believe the Federal Reserve will be forced into cutting rates. This is due to expectations that the economy will struggle under the new trade policy. For example, JP Morgan expects the Federal Reserve to delay rate cuts but will quickly cut towards the end of 2025. Market Risk Appetite Takes a Hit! A big factor for the day is the drop in the risk appetite of investors. This can be seen from the VIX which is up almost 6%, Gold which is trading 1.30% higher and the Japanese Yen which is the day’s best performing currency. Most safe haven assets, bar the US Dollar, increase in value. It is also worth noting that all indices are decreasing in value during this morning's Asian session with the Nikkei225 and NASDAQ witnessing the strongest decline. Previously the stock market rose in value as investors heard rumours that tariffs would only be on certain countries. This bullish swing occurred between March 14th and 25th. Over the weekend, President Donald Trump indicated that the upcoming tariffs would apply to all countries, not just those with the largest trade imbalances with the US. NASDAQ - Technical Analysis In terms of technical analysis, the NASDAQ continues to obtain indications that sellers control the price action. The price opens on a bearish price gap measuring 0.30% and trades below all Moving Averages on all timeframes. The NASDAQ also trades below the VWAP and almost 100% of the most influential components (stocks) are declining in value.     The next significant support level is at $18,313, and the resistance level stands at $20,367.95. Key Takeaway Points: NASDAQ falls to its lowest since September 2024 as the US confirms tariffs on all countries, adding to inflation concerns. Core PCE inflation rises to 0.4% MoM and 2.8% YoY, increasing the likelihood of prolonged high interest rates. Investor risk appetite drops as VIX jumps 6%, gold gains 1.3%, and safe-haven assets outperform. NASDAQ shows strong bearish momentum, trading below key technical levels with support at $18,313 and resistance at $20,367.95. Always trade with strict risk management.
