    indeed copper hit > $1000 profit / lot
    max profit : $1350 / lot

    Taiwan gapped down far too much because traders were looking at simsci movement . now it will sleep for a while.

    how let's see china A50 and hangseng.
    i suspect china A50 might prefer to wait for hangseng.

    crude oil , heating oil , RB gasoline all down. sigh... failed to short it.
    brain CPU not powerful enough.

    simply tooo many things to short. no time to type.

    11 jul mid asian session:

    which futures went down:
    simsci, nikkei, gold,
    es ym rty nq, copper, ho rb gasoline, crude oil

    taiwan index, china A50, hangseng gapped down far too much. so they didn't move much.

    hmmm. nikkei (and nasdaq?) forming bear flag.

    again copper is the lead. great job copper !

    italy bond, germany bond, dax - all sleeping.
    eur gbp jpy - also sleeping
    gold - already moved during asian session
    es ym rty nq - already moved during asian session. now sleeping.
    copper - already moved. now seems like directionless
    crude oil, heating oil, gasoline - already moved during asian session.

    my goodness!! how to trade ?!?!?!?!?!?
    let's see whether they will wake up or not.
    Perhaps President Trump might tweet / say something to move the market again.

    12 jul Asian session
    hmmm. after STORM, there will be CALM.
    based on past few decades market performance, surely there will be at least one good signal coming up just that I don't
    know where, and when it will happen.

    indeed there were some good signals.

    leads / star performers go to China A50, Hangseng and perhaps taiwan index

    laggards were : copper, NQ ES YM and to some extent NK RTY

    OK. time to recharge my battery.

    12 jul Eur session

    India Nifty - will probably ignore it

    eur gbp gold jpy - down during yesterday US session

    dax, italy and german bonds - yesterday very quiet. calm before the storm ?
    waiting for NATO meeting ?

    Just bought up my Chinese Renminbi futres from HKFE from my archive.
    past few weeks, day range was fantastic.
    seems to have lots of gaps, and volume rather low.
    hmmm. doesn't seem suitable for day trading. never mind.
    let other people trade it.

    luckily I was around to long India Nifty. price going up at 80 degree gradient.
    wonder what's happening in India. anyway don't bother to know the reason.
    just need to know how to earn money.

    crude oil. yesterday looong red candle. wonder what the europeans are going to do.
    price might continue to go down, or it might reverse up, or sleep.

    What signal did u see for India Nifty? Is it because of bullishness of other asian equities? Enter on trend pullback?

    both.

    occassionally India nifty has its own mind, and is anti correlated with other asian indices
