Day trading derivatives futures.

cont ...
NQ EUR GBP GOLD COPPER DAX
italy and germany bonds all moved this morning / last Fri.
Now they all decided to take a nap.


dangerous to trade such markets.
Better let the scalpers scalp such markets.

OK. time for my super long tea break.
Perhaps I should have long tea break till the Americans wake up.
 
23 jul US session

luckily I managed to earn some ticks from energy futures.

USDCNH up @245pm. didn't catch it. still trying to get used to her 'strange' personality / characteristics / character / idiosyncrasis / behaviour.
hmm. her bid offer spread could be >15 ticks !


es ym rty - past few days day range rather small. when is it going to widen ?
there should be some major news /events / tweets to widen it.
NQ day range still quite healthy.

gold copper - where are they going?

eur gbp appears to have found its comfort zone.

seems like today Americans might not move Germany bonds

ZB going down? anyway I don't trade it anymore. let the spreaders profit from it

as of now, es ym rty nq, usdcnh ,jpy, hangseng, India Nifty ...
not showing any sign of life

crude oil - day chart shows it is in big range.

dax, copper - yesterday long blue candle. today it might sleep

germany buxl - 2 days of long red candles, follow by one long blue candle

sigh ... I am falling asleep.
Hope there is some trigger, some major news / events or powerful tweet to
wake up the markets.

Usually when there was STORM, there will be CALM.
And when it is CALM, there will be STORM.

very quiet day.

perhaps big boys waiting for the coming Trump EU chief meeting.

only two signals :
usdcnh down @226pm

gold up @500p. hmmm. who longed the gold? it might be the same big boys who longed the gold yesterday.
 
27 jul Asian session

shrinking day range :
simsci, taiwan index, Nikkei, ES, ym
so CALM before the STORM?

yesterday long red candle:
china CN A50, hangseng, copper, gold
so after STORM, there will be CALM?

yessterday long blue candle :
USDCNH

NQ - now in big range. some earnings announcement around end of US session?


So? No comment. don't know what to say.
as more and more candles enter the chart, just decide based on what I see on the chart.

longed taiwan index @918am
wonder why it moves. perhaps month end or what?

shrinking day range :
India Nifty es ym
italy bond btp, jpy, crude oil
So today, will there be wide day range?
We need high accuracy crystal ball or fortune teller to answer this question..

yesterday long red candle :
eur gbp gold copper
So today, will there be
- long red candle

Similarly we need high accuracy crystal ball or fortune teller
or even 100% accuracy system to answer this question..

yesterday long blue candle :
HO, RB gasoline

Germany buxl, NQ still healthy day range
France bond OAT. day range has been small. well, let's see how it performs today
