Seasonal pull is up into a driving holiday weekend.

Is that the reason for the inverse move to ES in pre-market, or is it related to the dollar?

EON, when your stop is hit, do you get much slippage? The reason I ask is that in my sim account I've traded breakouts via a buy stop and gotten no slippage. I hesitated to do that at 80.46 this morning because I wasn't sure what slippage would be like in the live account and the breakout in fact was pretty strong.

EDIT: I meant 81.46

you would get bad slippage at the 81.46 Break out. enter before the BO

I did no get slippage as the stop was under HOD if it was 82.03 it would have been pretty bad.

in 80% of my market stops I dont get slippage, if I do its only a tick

That's what I was thinking. I've been doing that with stocks, entering just before the breakout, when the buying strength is apparent.
