6 JUL great intercorrelation day

these futures moved in great intercorrelation
(with some or no time lag )

USD based
copper, crude oil, gold, Natural gas
and perhaps major currencies.

index futures
Russell 2000, ES
dax, cac40, omxs30

bonds
US bonds like ZB, bund, btp ...


Such a market is a trader's dream.

trader's nightmare?
choppy, messy, chaotic, messy, erratic, jerky, spiky market

9 Jul Eur session

yesterday it was a big moving day.

so for this session, high chance it is going to be a difficult day to day trade;
there will be fewer good signals with lots of land mines.


what moved so far / what was trendy :
Taiwan index futures

oops! I missed the ES and Russell 2000 signals.
Luckily I caught the FCE signal.

seems like USD based commodities, bonds, currencies
wouldn't move much.
