Thursday 15th May 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review After a quick test of the 50% point of yesterday's high and low, we fell strongly for the morning. We are now back into our congested area, and the possibility of hitting further lows. No real problems today, but I am aware of what was said...

Thursday 14th May 2014 NQ100 Market Preview Yesterday we could not get up past even the overnight highs and spent most of the day in a large hinge before falling to 583 before the close and recovered to range below 600 during the night. An attempt to rise was halted at 606 and we have fell...

Wedensday 14th May 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review Today we didn't move much. We stayed within a reasonably tight area. Without trends the retracement entries didn't get far, and eventually I stopped for the day. Maybe the afternoon will bring a change, but for now we are back more or less...

Wedensday 14th May 2014 NQ100 Market Preview Yesterday we made it past previous highs at 618, but could not keep those gains until the end of the day. We had a day with a lot of movement aroung the mean, and then the night saw price settle at the bottom of its range and then try for the...

Tuesday 13th May 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review Today was a day of overthinking at times. We didn't have any major breakouts, but the movements could have been profitable with the right entires. More practise required. 1. We bounced off a pre-open high below 615, and retraced. I marked...

Tuesday 13th May 2014 NQ100 Market Preview We moved up yesterday to reach the late april highs overnight. So far we have not broken through, and the next highs above this are around 668 In the morning we moved down to 610, and we are currently near the bottom of the overnight range. If...

Hi Niko, I'm back. Just a week of family stuff, and literally no time to be online. Back now to have fun with NQ :)

Monday 12th May 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review We went up from the open today. The push in the early morning to bring the price from the 50's up to 70 was continued after the open. No surprises that we have difficulty getting past the 600 level. Plenty of previous congestion around that...

Monday 12th May 2014 NQ100 Market Preview I was unavailable last week due to family stuff, and technical issues. Back again this week. While we have a downtrend since March, the swing lows have been getting higher recently, and we are making a hinge on the daily chart. The mean is to be...

Thursday 1st May 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review Another day spent mostly revolving around a mean, and within the overnight range. We did eventually breakout and reach the channel highs, and as I am typing we have made it to 600. The afternoon may become interesting. 1. Opened around the...

Thursday 1st May 2014 pre-market review Yesterday we found it hard to get away from the mean and make it above the previous day's high. The FOMC announcement eventually pushed us slightly past the highs at the end of the day. We are now approaching the highs of our March channel, after a...

Wedensday 30th April 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review Given that we started today around a mean, this is not a good area for low risk trades. But I wanted to practise in real time, so I marked what I would have taken, while understanding we were within a small range. In the end we did stay...

Wedensday 30th April 2014 pre-market review We are still in a downtrend since March, but the last 2 weeks have seen a rise from the lows, and now we are balanced at a point where we can break above the swing highs and try to start a proper uptrend, or we can accept the failure to hold past...

"It" was really my brain. I would prefer to sit back and watch if I feel that I am not in tune with the flow of the market. I guess I had no Zen today.

Some days are better than others. I am reducing my errors with practise, and a lot of reading and discussions. I don't currently use the Charttrader in Ninja. I will start using it soon. I need to get to the next step soon.

Tuesday 29th April 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review A day for wandering around the mean within our overnight range. The buyers and sellers, were mianly agreed on value today, so no crazy trends to the moon happened. I probably looked at too many entries today, but I felt in a better zone than...

Tuesday 29th April 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review Busy day yesterday, ranged from 562 down to 480, with strong trends right until the daytime close. We made it through the lows at 516, but could not get past a previous swing low at 480. From the lows we made a consistant trend upwards to...

Yes, but some days it works for me, others it doesn't. I will aim to improve today.

Monday 28th April 2014 NQ100 1 min chart review I had a day where I prepped and understood the levels, but didn't react quickly enough, and entered at the wrong points. The day should have been a lot easier than I made it. I'll take the learnings into the rest of the week. Before the...

Monday 28th April 2014 pre-market review Over the past 2 weeks we have retraced more than 50% of the drop from early March from 3740 to 3405. But after a few attempts to stay above 72 over the last week, we have fallen well below this this on Friday. In the morning we have tested the 45...
