That last ramp felt PPTish. Kinda out of place, technically, but then again it's not like ES follows any real technicals anymore.

However that "simplicity" is why they do not even understand the products in the first place. Futures also give you flexibility in coming up with whatever bets on term structure you want - whereas the ETFs have fixed (and somewhat opaque) balances. It costs like 2$ to trade a VX contract, not...

Avoid ETFs - trade the futures directly.

Just put surf on ignore and the TA bickering becomes less of an issue IMO.

(Back on the 23rd)

Looks like we might have another cycle of this endless fucking march upwards before we see any downside. Some Asian indexes are signally down though IMO (Australian SPI). Some European indexes look like they want to make another leg up (FTSE). The uncharted territory various central banks have...

Yeah, which markets?

Market's seem quite "slow" these days - or maybe I haven't been paying much attention (which is true).

Typical China control freak stuff. They don't understand free markets or free choice.

Hah only one post today guys? :-)

You can remove some of this systematic risk with spreads BTW. Of course, you're then trading on another derivative, but it's the one many pros trade off of.

Its just smoothed data. You're better off with constant volume bars IMO - but it requires reorienting your thinking.

Profits profit - but what's up with all the trades? :-)

Made minor money on WTI, lost minor money on ES. I see oil going down to low 46s, pop to high 47s, then down, down, down.

That article is ridiculous and totally dependent on statistical analysis and nothing else. "The study also estimated that the cost of these deaths to the economy was about $450 million, an amount that would increase to $910 million if there was no recall of the offending vehicles." Really, so...

So how about those small caps....

Long VX Nov/Dec.

I'm sure IRT is more extensive with MD specifics but SC does volume profiles and footprints charts just fine. Multiday, all bars, whatever. Use the SC realtime data plans for the exchanges you need - its the actual exchange data costs just passed on but with historical tick data. Fairly good...

Sierra Chart definitely.

I don't like this quiet - combined with the fact that Asian markets are mostly doing the moving and they don't look too bullish. Granted, they probably are still reacting to FOMC.
