Symbols:
ES - 24 hr chart of Dec contract
ES #F=2 continuous contract of 9:30am to 4:15pm (rolls to the next contract month automatically) You will need to make your own chart for this symbol
NQ - just replace ES with NQ
YM and YG
Just use YG or YM and chose the December contract.
_____________________________________________________________
GET use ES #F, NQ #F, YG #F and TM #F (there is a space between the symbol and the #. Then just check the box for "all sessions" or leave it unchecked for RH.
Dude...
you need CBOT mini sized futures too at eSig and it doesn't cost any extra either...LOL Did you try to open a YG #F chart in GET to check to see if you are getting data?
I just went short on a few YG contracts @ 435.50
I wish I would have been around more today. What a day to swap the mini. I would have expected more chop instead of the nice swings.
Easy
No I really haven't but I will try to go back and look. I have some stuff that works pretty well for me if I just stick to it. That is the hardest part.
Sonic...
I bailed at 3.31 and when I left it looked like a good trade. I am not complaining though...it was a nice gain. I had alot of shares and was sweating.
About a week. I just lost one a month or so ago.
Thanks for the response about the cheapies. I was curious because HL (which has been my best trading stock) would never come up with those criteria.
I am out @ $3.31. It's hard not to take that kind of gain off the table
EGHT...SWEET, but what happened to cause that.
Easy...
I was curious. Wht do all the issues in your scans come up as cheapies? Do you eliminate issues if they aren't cheapies. If so...WHY?????
It would seem that you take away 90% of the field and what you take away is the most liquid, easiest to trade issues...just curious
Good to see you around Mark. I know you are glad to be home.
Interesting...thanks
coming back to you...eom
back at ya'...eom
I am still seeing 455 - 457 (good) and 463 - 466 (weak but possible) as impulse targets for the present rum.
Here to 447 is still the highest percent chance
leading
Long term it's a big short on my charts. All time frames are completing 5 up but in the short term there are some big boys short the dollar and long gold. Gold is very easy to manipulate so going purely off interest rate fears is crazy in the short term.
We could still get a big impulse blast up before correcting so be careful.
Cap...
The Wednesday Fed meeting will tell the tale. It will be really hard for me to make a good decision before then for the long term but I am leaning long short term after an early down tonight/tomorrow morning.
Cap...

PS - mail on the way with three charts with nice templates for gold. Don't forget to save them as charts AND templates.
Not really...lol
I will snug my stop down tommorow even though I would not expect much movement at all tomorrow either. Wed is FOMC meeting so all the action this week will come from the meeting forward.
Be prepared to play Gold too when playing the mini's this week. It should be a fantastic trade.
Daily breadth says we should already be well down due to the amount of distribution. A sudden drop is coming later this afternoon or the BS will get deep.
I am still short both YM and ES. Stops are way out of BS range.
Easy...
Underlying is YM...ECBOT

1250 - initial
1000 - maintain

$5.00 per point per contract is the payoff.
An average day where let's say the Dow goes up 100 points, the Naz goes up 25 and the S&P goes up 10 would all pay the same ($500.00)
Two things though...one, the Dow is not as liquid so several times normal points can go quick if someone is power buying or selling. But the other is that your margin carries more earning power on a normal day.
It's not a good one to play on a choppy day but when the market is trending well you should make more return on full margin bets.
Look at the divergence between the MACD weekly and SPX price
Yeeehaaa!!!...eom
Hehehe...what timing...LOL
Short YM (dow mini) 10398...eom
You need to use GLOBEX NOT CME
Finally a lower high - all we need is a lower low and we can let off some steam. It was getting a little too silly out there.
Short @ 1165 for a 1 to 3 day swing...stop 1173. Holding thru the close.
Now it's done a 50% retrace and looking to run up.
And roll it did...lol
425.5 and still dropping.
Out at 1159.25 for 2 1/4 and flat..eom
Easy,
I sent you an e-mail. Did you get it?
A retest would be sweet...eom
The daily, weekly and monthly look ripe and everyone and his brother is getting very long here. A perfect scenario would be a hard fall till mid week and then a lift. Too bad it's not a perfect world.
Too many bulls here now.
The first serious test will be 46 to 46.50 (the weekly center Bollie band. It does a pretty good job holding it up. A move below that would be a real surprise to me.
Tomorrow (Friday) and next Wednasday (11/10) are the next two Bradley dates. The last one was 70 S&P points ago.
Wednesdays date fits with some other studies as a BIG TURN. The last one that was this long in duration following the turn was early last December. Go back and look at that move... : )
What a weird chart... lol
It doesn't even look close to being done...got balls???
No, it only stores 500 bars of intraday data unless you specify otherwise. Most everything is "on demand" anyway so it isn't stored on your hard drive.
