16 oct european session

monitoring GBPUSD
 
16 oct US session

longed gbpusd 900pm 13293. reversal up
profit : 20 ticks

longed ES 942pm, 2556.50
profit : zero. seems like ES and NQ want to sleep.
the way they sleep very obvious.
Goodnight ES and NQ.

shorted rusell 1015pm, 15115 reversal down
profit : 30 ticks. straightforward reversal signal right out of textbook.


seems like US dollars not moving.
soya, cattle, hog futures also not moving. I guess farmers and traders waiting for reports/news/events ....

ok. now for cold beer, and watch my favorite TV channel. Later dream how to have six or even nine 32" monitors for trading.
Must also remember it is ok to earn tons of money because we can always give i to the unfortunate people.

retired from full time trading already.

now at home I can have hobbies like having more monitors, more tables, more computers, and trade more exchanges.

Seems like I will be working even more hours ; very oxymoric.
That's the advantage of day trading.
LOL...I like it.

17 oct asian pre market analysis

very easy premarket analysis. Don't need phD or university education to do it.

Just need to be aware most of the time, signal comes out of no where for don't know what reason.
so just be alert and catch those signals.
Don't listen to news because it is inaccurate, slow, distorted and useless.

don't need to know Navier Stokes equation, Euler equation, curvilinear equation, polynomial regression, not even
y = mx + c.
just simple + -* / should suffice.

must have this mindset :

17 oct India market

shorted India Nifty 1146am, 10254.


17 oct asian time - only one signal and that's from Nikkei.
very rare to have so few signals.
 
17 oct india market

India nifty
profit : 20 points, ie Risk Reward ratio 1:2

if you trade tens of lots even with such a low RR ratio of 1:2, you can earn tons of money.
but if you analyse price action wrongly , you could lost tons of money too.
