Good Post >
For those of us that are older the current events seem more relevant as
our views and involvement in/of past events and history keep unfolding again before our eyes.
"Thus in your post the writing is a perfect example of such."
There is no stepping over the limit in this these type post/posts, however probably best
to keep as weekend subject matter and revert to "our" usual posting rules for week days.
NQ > I think we are in for a very wild ride coming soon (months) ?
Also I believe we have learned Nothing since 2008
one thing to Remember >> NG is one of the most
HIGHLY Manipulated commodities in the mix
In my opinion attempting to to chart / TA, /NG is very vague at best
It's hard even to scalp trades
best I can do for you > It gets complicated

The Dow Jones Commodity Index Natural Gas is designed to track the natural gas market through futures contracts
This is based on the NYMEX contracts for natural gas.
What is in the Bloomberg natural gas Subindex?
The Index is composed of one or more futures contracts on commodity of natural gas (the “index components”) and is intended to reflect the returns that are potentially available through (1) an unleveraged investment in those contracts plus (2) the rate of interest that could be earned on cash collateral invested in ...
How do natural gas swaps work?
“Swaps” are exchanges of payments between two parties. They are strictly financial. No physical exchange of the commodity takes place. One party to the transaction agrees to pay a current market price (“fixed”) while the other agrees to pay a price in the future (“floating”).

Like in NQ's charts > 10yr / 2yr - 10yr / 3 month
Continuing resolution through "" Nov. 17 ""
passed on Sept. 30, averting a government shutdown > Great , whats the next game
Besides extending appropriations for ""seven weeks""
the measure also includes several policy extensions for programs that were scheduled to expire >> Hmmmm, what are they
Lots of moving pieces here. >>> NONE of them good
If one has an ARM (read Airb&b 2nd propeity) or lots of card debt they are screwed
Small business are screwed

vid was a sobering insight
different year > Same Ole Corrupt game
CR can last for a few days, weeks or months. > NOPE CR is Passed on 9/30
As in Previous Years, congressional leaders have passed a CR in late September
that expires just before the holidays to increase pressure on rank and file lawmakers
to agree to a broader funding deal and avoid a pre-Christmas shutdown.

Had to make some past due life changes
Anyway if you want to work on some TOS scripts I have a bunch loaded to share
like > http://tos.mx/vvy5RNW
?? > curious what you're trying to do >
" but TOS lacks some of the stuff SC has"
As SC is a market hours only "charting" service vs a few platforms doing real time futures (all hours)
the quality of an assumed "good". TA is dependent on as much data as possible
rather back to "the tail wags the dog" all hours Futs vs 9:30 to 4
>>> FOMC on Wed., dog and pony @ 2PM ?

Note: I'll be keeping a close watch on this TOS Schwab swap
If ur an old TOS user you will see thru the changes and adapt fast
If I see anything of importance Ill post it
Any new TOS users, we (the older ones) are around to help
There is a steep learring curve to TOS that take time to sort thru
NQ > more to add to fray a bit later >
Due to the password issues I had yday > I did look/see the new TOS platform on/in Schwab's vs normal TOS/TDA
The problem I had was due to a password reset I attempted on old TOS (But) it threw in into the (NEW) TOS
on Schwab and I could not back it out.and return to the OLD TOS/TDA (Right now they are separate entities)
Anyway their tech software gurus were able to recreate my OLD TOS and passwords without any losses to a huge
amount of custom scripts I had built of years > That would have been a disaster.
As per conversation with TOS tech guru it appears I will be in a "last" batch of rolls/merger crossovers due to
my activity level (maybe early 2024)
Right now I don't want to muck anything up before that actual transfer takes place.
HOWEVER
I'm going to backup everything I have of OLD TOS in case something goes south.
Also in taking to guru it sounds to me that they have heavily thought this thru and will do the roll overs in blocks
(light casual users First) then progress to heavy users/ day traders Last.
Last Note for now
Several of us have loads of custom scripts we built or swapped with each other > they will NOT be lost in transfer
ATTN: Thinkorswim (Platform) merge to Schwab servers PART 1 >(SAVE)
