Spectre2007, please clarify the following for everyone. You are using mulitple time frames in your analysis - not just the 60 minute bars. Weekly to monthly charts (or higher) for moving average crossover trend following to position trade, and dropping down to 60 minute chart for intraday...

IMO this is the "800 lb gorilla in the room" that no one wants to admit is sitting there. You can't pull one strand of the global financial web without moving the whole web - contrary to all of the "experts" telling you blowups and meltdowns can be "contained to their specific area of the...

I thought the talking head said the S&P500 was down -3.3%, took a look and saw -203.00 and said WTF????? Hit rewind on CNBC and saw that it was Australia's market the talking head was referring to. Anybody out there actively trading Globex last night to catch the action in the world stock...

No stop holding an overnight position.....aren't you concerned that a macro event could gap the market strongly against your position, and then follow through in the US RTH next day? Even a small position? Are you hedged somehow? Just want some insight here.......
