Day Trading the E-mini Futures with Predictor

Recommended Posts

Josh.. Okay, first you're fundamentally not even understanding what I'm doing here. First I'm not making calls for others to follow me here. I'm providing my real-time read which others can take or leave. I primarily expect others are traders here and have own game plan. This is not a "follow the leader" type thing. I did that for 2 years and had 2 of the top tracked/independently verified futures systems. They are no longer offered. I closed at or near equity highs.

 

My point is that if you're watching the market you can see what the market does from the point of my call/analysis. You can only do this if you're watching in real-time because I edit my posts. No, its true that most traders can't see everything I see without advanced software -- like the kind I've developed. You wouldn't have been able to see the limit orders exhausting the market orders and the short balance building. Obviously steve didn't or he wouldn't have been talking his ridiculousness at just the wrong time. Yes the market dumped to 18 as I called it today.

 

It also put in the HOD as I called it. Josh, right now I'm on a losing streak but keep in mind the last time I was here I had 10 winning days. Not a single losing day and people though I was making up calls and even losing. I did extremely well the first half of this year.

 

The lesson is simple.. don't worry about how I'm doing. If you find my analysis/sharing/calls useful then drop in and say thanks... Again, I'm sharing but not making trade recommendations. I'm not trying to prove myself. I already did and there are better ways to do that.. I never look at forums/calls etc for proof because the quantification isn't precise enough.

 

Also, for the record I was short but i never called that. In fact, I actually said I was going to only take long trades today. I also wrote that a short imbalance had developed but explain that if they weren't able to drive market lower that they'd be forced to cover. I wrote that the first DRIVE to new highs looked like a stop run.That drive did fail... just as an FYI

 

Again I'm sharing real-time analysis. I'm not trying to prove anything. I'm also not trying to compete with any other traders here.

 

You are more dangerous to yourself than any of your potential customers. People can see through your delusional behavior, but I am not sure if you can see yourself in the same light. With your vain defense above, you are only beating around the bush looking for a way to save face. You are not confronting your reality -- which is you do not know WTF you are doing. You are in denial. You are beyond help; only an empty bank account can stop you (I am sure you have re-funded your account many times). May god have mercy on you at this festive season.

Please everyone keep this thread on track to providing real-time/analysis/calls/etc. I know a lot of people don't trade/failed/etc and like to chat/hang out but prefer if you did that in other threads.

Since you arrived Princess mostly everyone else has left the building.....

 

So you are pretty much talking to yourself unless someone like myself, Josh or Tams decides to provide a bit of common sense...I think if we took a vote YOU would be voted off the island....I've sent a message to the site owner to that effect and I hope others will take a moment to do the same...

 

I will be gone until this jackass is removed.....my best wishes for a pleasant and safe holiday season to all

Steve, I'm going to hold you to your word. Please don't come back anytime soon. I'd rather be called a Princess, lied about, trolled, spit on, etc then not to have talent. If there is a lesson then that's the lesson here folks... It is far better to be a despised winner then a loser. If you don't feel the same way then trading probably isn't for you. Many are pointing fingers at me who've never had highly profitable published real-time calls --- like I have. The same people who trying to question me are the same folks who thought I was losing when I had a 10 day uninterrupted win streak.. just remember that.

 

Here are my projections for the next 24 hours

 

H2: 1435

H1: 1430.5

L: 1425

 

Some may realize that the type/quality of analysis I share is better then found in many chat rooms costing hundreds of dollars. The environment is not currently though.. So, I will consider a wide array of options for sharing my analysis in a constructive, positive environment.

Predictor, it seems like a lot of the phrases in your posts are thoughts that come across your mind while using your software, or watching the market. Right or wrong, the posts are your interpretation of the "goings on" in the market at that moment in time. You are able to filter through your calls and find the "calls" that were meaningful. On the other hand, the reader does not share your filter and is not able to gain the same value from your posts as you do. You should expect that your efforts will lead to criticism.

 

I suppose it is similar to watching a Pentecostal Christian who speak in tongues. When they are finished they seem drained and spiritually satisfied; however, the onlooker has a bewildered "WTF" look on his face.

Looking for a reversal in the 18-25 region to get long. For those who actually trade, you're probably seeing my levels are pretty spot on...

 

Over 24 hours ago, I posted my levels which projected a high of between 30.5 and 35. The high was 34.5

Large negative inventory built at lows... if we stay above this inventory then sellers will be forced to cover. Trading below inventory will likely lead to new lows.

Sellers stops just triggered at 27.75. New buy program

You are talking about the S&P, right?

He did say 'could'

 

He could have said....

 

Big sell imbalance here, market will head down unless this is a trap for new shorts in which case we will see new highs.

 

Or to put it another way.

 

Could go down, could go up.

 

Jus tryin' to inject a bit of humour....:haha:

Actually you posted them 14 hrs before the time of the above post and you were only half right -- the high so far is 1437, and your 24 hrs are not yet up.

 

The trick is not projecting the high and the low. Wyckoff traders have been doing that for years right here in River City, without software, for free. Your problem is management. You exited at 29.5, seven pts ahead of what so far been the high. But I suppose that if you had made only a point, it technically would still be a "winning day".

 

Learn to let your profits run.

The unfortunate thing is that everyone is criticizing and critiquing Mr.Dice. Why not add value and do what the thread was started and designed for? If the clown wants to turn this into his poor example of a failing trading journal then don't let him hijack the thread! You are not bringing value. So far it seems I am the only one who even attempted.

 

What say you?

 

So called "Market Wizards" with the golden "C".

That should forever be your trading grade. C.

If you can't do better then Mr. Dice then don't feel ashamed. If you can then post pics. Simple as that.

 

Just fill up pages with good stuff that works and makes money and every one will see. Just simply saying his stuff doesn't work or he is wrong doesn't help new or struggling folks. Unless you just want to fill pages with worthless comments then keep doing what you are doing. If not then fill it with good stuff that works and he will have no credibility.

Very high level of selling over the last 24 hours after tremendous momentum surge up. Majority of traders are short at 39.50.. if we start to trade below and build volume that then it would indicate to me a possibility for a run lower. Currently we are trading above this level.

 

Another area I'm watching is the 44 because we had sell all through that region and not a lot of overall activity. I'm somewhat anticipating a range bound day with possibility to test a new low.

My bias is currently long.. new buy programs have triggered. As long as we can stay above that 39.50ish area then there is potential to retest 44.

Book is rather heavy.. it might be a case of too many on board now

Either buy program or stops being at run at 41.50

    • Date: 3rd April 2025.   Gold Prices Pull Back After Record High as Traders Eye Trump’s Tariffs.   Key Takeaways:   Gold prices retreated after hitting a record high of $3,167.57 per ounce due to profit-taking. President Trump announced a 10% baseline tariff on all US imports, escalating trade tensions. Gold remains exempt from reciprocal tariffs, reinforcing its safe-haven appeal. Investors await US non-farm payroll data for further market direction. Fed rate cut bets and weaker US Treasury yields underpin gold’s bullish outlook. Gold Prices Retreat from Record Highs Amid Profit-Taking Gold prices saw a pullback on Thursday as traders opted to take profits following a historic surge. Spot gold declined 0.4% to $3,122.10 per ounce as of 0710 GMT, retreating from its fresh all-time high of $3,167.57. Meanwhile, US gold futures slipped 0.7% to $3,145.00 per ounce, reflecting broader market uncertainty over economic and geopolitical developments.   The recent rally was largely fueled by concerns over escalating trade tensions after President Donald Trump unveiled sweeping new import tariffs. The 10% baseline tariff on all goods entering the US further deepened the global trade conflict, intensifying investor demand for safe-haven assets like gold. However, as traders locked in gains from the surge, prices saw a modest retracement.   Trump’s Tariffs and Their Market Implications On Wednesday, Trump introduced a sweeping tariff policy imposing a 10% baseline duty on all imports, with significantly higher tariffs on select nations. While this move was aimed at bolstering domestic manufacturing, it sent shockwaves across global markets, fueling inflation concerns and heightening trade war fears.   Gold’s Role Amid Trade War Escalations Despite the widespread tariff measures, the White House clarified that reciprocal tariffs do not apply to gold, energy, and ‘certain minerals that are not available in the US’. This exemption suggests that central banks and institutional investors may continue favouring gold as a hedge against economic instability. One of the key factors supporting gold is the slowdown that these tariffs could cause in the US economy, which raises the likelihood of future Federal Reserve rate cuts. Gold is currently in a pure momentum trade. Market participants are on the sidelines and until we see a significant shakeout, this momentum could persist.   Impact on the US Dollar and Bond Yields Gold prices typically move inversely to the US dollar, and the latest developments have pushed the dollar to its weakest level since October 2024. Market participants are increasingly pricing in the possibility of a Fed rate cut, as the tariffs could weigh on economic growth.   Additionally, US Treasury yields have plummeted, reflecting growing recession fears. Lower bond yields reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold, making it a more attractive investment.         Technical Analysis: Key Levels to Watch Gold’s recent rally has pushed it into overbought territory, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) above 70. This indicates a potential short-term pullback before the uptrend resumes. The immediate support level lies at $3,115, aligning with the Asian session low. A further decline could bring gold towards the $3,100 psychological level, which has previously acted as a strong support zone. Below this, the $3,076–$3,057 region represents a critical weekly support range where buyers may re-enter the market. In the event of a more significant correction, $3,000 stands as a major psychological floor.   On the upside, gold faces immediate resistance at $3,149. A break above this level could signal renewed bullish momentum, potentially leading to a retest of the record high at $3,167. If bullish momentum persists, the next target is the $3,200 psychological barrier, which could pave the way for further gains. Despite the recent pullback, the broader trend remains bullish, with dips likely to be viewed as buying opportunities.   Looking Ahead: Non-Farm Payrolls and Fed Policy Traders are closely monitoring Friday’s US non-farm payrolls (NFP) report, which could provide critical insights into the Federal Reserve’s next policy moves. A weaker-than-expected jobs report may strengthen expectations for an interest rate cut, further boosting gold prices.   Other key economic data releases, such as jobless claims and the ISM Services PMI, may also impact market sentiment in the short term. However, with rising geopolitical uncertainties, trade tensions, and a weakening US dollar, gold’s safe-haven appeal remains strong.   Conclusion: While short-term profit-taking may trigger minor corrections, gold’s long-term outlook remains bullish. As global trade tensions mount and the Federal Reserve leans toward a more accommodative stance, gold could see further gains in the months ahead.   Always trade with strict risk management.
