    They likes this.
  4. They

    Should be some nice action in the ES/NQ as/if we take out yesterdays lows. Otherwise, as you've mentioned its a little humdrum since EU opened.

    8 Feb - what was moving


    Early Asian session:
    -NQ
    -simsci
    -Hangseng (probably because those guys just back from holiday)


    Early Eur session :
    - NONE other than India Nifty
    such market is called dead market, deadly market, aka lifeless market.
    those heavy scalpers should be able to earn some ticks from such markets.

    Later Eur session :
    -DAX, Italy btp, Germany buxl - all these moved due to continuation
    of previous day movement
    -gold


    Early US session :
    -NONE
    Indeed zero signal during early US session.
    what deadly market aka zombie market aka walking dead market.


    Later US session :
    -NQ ES rty YM

    main movers so far ....

    NQ down when market opened due to whatever reason.
    copper followed.
    Taiwan index also down. ( probably those guys just back from holiday?)


    Hangseng up (perhaps due to US China trade things).
    NQ followed Hangseng up movement.
    Germany buxl down (perhaps because Index were up).
    gold down (most likely laggard)

    13 Feb Eur session

    what happened few mins/hrs ago ...

    Nikkei and NQ have been very good friends past two days.
    They holded hands and moved together.

    Hangseng was up. but movement very erratic.
    it seems to be laggard.

    Natural Gas down . now seems to go up.
    perhaps it might go up > 100 ticks?

    India Nifty has been sleeping for > 2 days.
    perhaps it is waiting for major news / events to trigger explosive movement.


    what happened yesterday ...
    Germany buxl market swing up and down with good wide day range.
    index futures mostly up
    crude oil up ( 2 days already)

    ES day range

    7 feb 42 points - good !
    8 feb 28 points - ok
    11 feb 20 points - bad
    12 feb 42 points - good !
    13 feb 20 points - bad
    14 feb 20 points too?

    If day range is persistently low and occasionally high,
    very difficult to earn money.

    day range is not that great compare with Dec 18 month.

    18 Feb analysis.

    what a deadly, dead, lifeless market

    # signals in early Asian session : 3
    India Nifty was the star performer

    # signals in early Eur session : 3

    # signals in early US session : 0

    19 Feb will definitely be a good day for trading.
