NQ Trading

Quote from macattack:

Good point. There may be no stops there at all.

But I do observe that behavior just about every single day.

I'm just trying to understand better who the participants are in the market & what makes certain things happen.

I used to get stopped out on those moves all the time, so I'm very aware of it when I see it now.

Why does it happen?

when things start getting cloudy i pause & push my chair out so i'm about 8 feet from my desk...the point where each individual candle become indistinguishable. look at the mere outlines of the big picture.

Brings everything important back into clear focus, almost everytime.
 
The pattern I asked about goes along with the phrase, "the first move is for amateurs". I'm trying to figure out why that is so.

Amateurs (& maybe others) get in early, then get stopped out when price reverses, and then price goes right back in the direction the amateurs thought it would go in the first place (without them).

Why does it reverse? Who makes it reverse? Is it just a natural reaction or is it a controlled movement?

If it's controlled; then controlled by who?

Who are the big players in the index futures markets?
 
Getting in on "the first move" is betting large before seeing the flop.

Getting in on first move is trying to pick tops and bottoms.

Let the hand play out a bit first before placing a bet.
 
Don't forget that you MUST become the NQ, you no longer exist in the outside world. YOU ARE THE NQ, AND AS THE NQ YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT.

Sort of like TRON.
