ES Journal - 2019/2020

[Laissez Faire]

So, we have 3 weeks in a row, each making ATHs and closing at top of the range.

The last time this happened was at the end of January 2018 with a weekly net change of - 3,84 % the next week.

Maybe the bears will finally have their week?

Beyond that, I got a 10/11 chance of next week making new ATHs, but only a 5/11 chance of closing positive on the week. And the positive days are limited to a maximum of 0,24 % with one outlier of 2,11 %.

So, according to my basic weekly model, it's a mixed picture going into next week where odds favour at least a minor pullback and limited upside.

Yeah, but you are trailing your position by a mile. Why not tighten up a bit especially with volatility so low ?
