ES Journal - 2012

Quote from gmst:

Its hard to say whether ES followed EUR or EUR followed ES. I was short Euro and was looking at both euro and ES - both moved simultaneously. I couldn't find any news though at that time - so not sure what was behind that spike. Spike lasted for 10 minutes but was enough to cause me a 400$ loss

It jumped on merkel's comments

Are you planning on shorting 86-87?

On 2nd look could they run this to 88.50 first then bring it down?

no, but i can see how that could possibly be the high today too

T&S side by side and it seems since 3am(C) that eur led. On that move, eur T&S lit up well ahead on the first surge. Higher volume in eur by far

I see what you are saying. Possible for you to post a screenshot comparing eur and es T&S side by side. That will be awesome.

I find it incredibly hard to even follow one T&S, comparing two myself is harder - maybe i will figure it out looking at your picture. Thanks
