    Micro Bitcoin MBT update

    parameters :
    volume charts: 40V and 80V
    candlesticks : use heikin Ashi due to the choppy movement
    max stop loss : 40 points

    ave daily volume: 15k which is extremely pathetic
    ave day range : 2000 points (5%)
    trendiness : an eyesore / relatively lousy
    bid-offer spread : > 10 ticks which is horrible


    OK. time to throw the MBT chart into the dustbin
    and remove MBT from my trading platforms.
    There are other much better things to day trade.

    30 JUN US session

    seems like US index futures will most likely fall asleep again.
    Time to destinate US session as D session.
    Most likely for today, the worst session to trade is the US session.
    ok. time for me to stop trading.

    anyway, today's Asian and European sessions are great sessions for trading.
    for the Asian session, it could be the end of the month thing.

  4. Are you saying that the summer doldrum effect is more pronounced in US indices than other time zones?

    ES have been much slower the last few days in the US session. NQ still seems to move decently.

    NQ day range could be rather healthy.
    However, its movement could be rather choppy.

    look at the recent day range :
    NQ 80 points (0.5%) <<<< very low
    Es 20 points (0.5%) <<<< very low

    dax 260 points (1.6%) <<<< very high
    cac40 104 points (1.6%) <<<<< very high
    Taiwan index 24 points (1.5%) <<<< very high

    actually during yesterday US session,
    the commodities (copper, NG ....) were moving,
    but the US index futures were sleeping.

    1 JUL early US session summary

    movers were
    commodities like Natural gas, copper, crude oil, HO ...

    NG day range should be decaying soon.


    sleepers were
    US index futures and the usual stuff
    (calm before the storm?)

    quite a similar pattern as in previous days

    2 JUL NFEC trading

    NFEC data release coming up.

    what moved so far ...
    Hangseng, China A50 went down significantly due to whatever reason.
    Gold and bonds were up (they moved in tandem).


    what to focus on :

    - US index futures & perhaps dax, fce, hangseng
    - gold & perhaps copper
