    hmm. natural gas getting cheaper and cheaper.
    this winter must be very hot till NG becomes so cheap.
    or perhaps USD getting stronger?
    in fact, NG, oil, HO, RB all down.

    bitcoin. there was long signal @500pm. wonder if uptrend could be sustained or not.

    8 Jan Asian session

    Day trading will provide.
    No cup and you get nothing.
    Small cup and you get meagre profit.
    So get the biggest cup possible and let day trading overflow it.


    asian index futures have quietened last Fri.
    US index futures - many days of long blue candles.
    USD based futures tend not to move during Asian session

    Longed Natural gas @806am

    hmmm. NG going up at 89 degree gradient.

    hmmm. what's energy trying to do?

    or perhaps going nowhere?
