    Trading China A50 futures - day 5

    What a violent day.
    It will continue to be violent during the coming European and the US sessions.

    It has been this way for the last 5 days.

    PS: I have compressed the X and Y axes massively.

    Trading China A50/HangSeng - Day 8

    A Very trendy day.

    The Europeans and the US will also move those futures soon.

    8 Oct 2024 - China A50 day 11

    These lines and labels are very important for day trading today's China A50.
    Of course, it wouldn't be easy to label it during the initial part of the session.

    It will probably move 23x7 for the next few days.


    X and Y axes are highly highly compressed

    9 Oct 2024 China A50 day 12

    It seems like there are no more hurricanes (at least over the next few hours).
    The chart exhibits close wedge formation.

    # signals during early European session : 5
    movers : gold, dax, MIB, fesx

    # signals during end European/early US session : 1 <<<< worst session to trade

    The market is getting rather dead

    Trading margin has increased.
    Market condition has changed.

    It is time to adjust my trading parameters;
    To double or even triple the max loss

    ES - 2.5 to 5 points
    gold - 15 to 30 ticks
    copper - 15 to 30 ticks
    taiwan index - 1.5 to 3 points (market still closed)
    dax - 1.5 to 3 points (market still closed)
    nikkei - 50 to 100 points
    Hangseng - 25 to 50? points (market still closed)
    China A50 - 15 to 30? points (market still closed)
    etc

    btc, currency & bond futures - no change

    Chart volume ? - tbd

    ref my posting #995
    average # of signals per trading session has increased humungously from 3 to >20?
    But for today's Asian session, there will be thousands of landmines.

    upload_2025-4-7_9-17-1.png

    but landmines elsewhere/everywhere.
    Don't step on it.

    Trading is now like playing computer games.
    Time to play games next 24x7.

  8. Volatility is trader's friend, but I found it hard to day trade this extreme volitility. Going to take a break from all that since market really oversold. With extreme volatility, Technical level and pattern work less well. much more stop out, reward becomes great if you are bias short.

    A typical trading session has about 3 good signals.
    today there are > 20 good signals.
    Unfortunately, there are > 100 deadly mines sprinkled here and there.

    Most of the time, the market moves because of one or 2 desperate big boys.
    ended up there are tons of mines.
    I wait for market to move when tens or hundreds of big boys move the market.
    So today I only enter when there is good intermarket correlation.
    So you must have multiple charts displayed together in order to see that.

    7 Apr 2025 European session

    Swedish OMXS30 is very trendy.

    DAX, CAC40, ES, gold ..... - impossible (at least for me) to trade.
