Day & Night trading Derivatives Futures
- Thread starter maxinger
- Start date
16 Feb preparation
What happened :
The market was very quiet due to Asian & US holidays.
France CAC40 has been trending very well due to whatever reasons.
What to focus :
As usual, Asian, European & US index futures.
Asian index futures - Taiwan index, India Nifty, Hangseng have been great & trendy.
Thailand SET50, China A50, Simsci were also great.
CME copper & crude oil which will probably move in tandem with index futures.
crude oil, HO, RBOB will probably move in tandem too.
But China Shanghai INE Sour Crude medium &
copper cathode might not move in tandem.
INE products are yuan based.
gold - it tends to be rather untrendy
Natural gas- It might move during European and US sessions.
day range has been very healthy
major currencies - I will probably minimize the charts
US and various European bonds - I will minimize the charts.
But one day, it will be in-fashion.

16 Feb mid Eur session review
summary of movers :
hang seng, Nikkei, India Nifty
summary of laggards:
silver, gold and perhaps copper
summary of sleepers :
European index futures (dax, CAC40, ftmib, omxs30 etc )
US index futures
currencies
all the bonds
Natural gas
and perhaps crude oil
better stop trading Eur session, and take a nap.

19 Feb crude oil trading
hindsight / post mortem / reverse engineering / playback or whatever analysis
This is one of the easiest and best days for crude oil trading.
There were hardly any landmines.
Such a day is very rare.
It is very different from trading say NQ on 19 Feb, early US session.
up or down signal, signal time, maximum profit
----------------------------------------------------
down 0800 hr, $500 per lot
down again 1000a, $600
up 1200p, $600
down 403p, $450
up 445p, $500
down 620p, $600
up 950p, $750
down 1220a, $1100
up 236a, $450
down 326a, $550
max profit per lot $5700 if you trade non stop from
Asian to Eur to US sessions.
of course, I caught less than half of these signals.

- gold (but trendiness was bad)
lazy sleepers were
- currencies
- bonds
