    what happened on 24 May ...

    Crude oil, India Nifty, US index day range shrinking but still healthy.
    But trendiness could have been better.
    Italy Btp was up due to whatever reason.

    NQ dax going down.
    Germany buxl up perhaps due to index futures.
    gbp down slowly (perhaps due to index futures?) .

    eur - perhaps time to archive this sleepy futures, and replace it with
    active lively futures like heating oil, RB gasoline ...

    Interesting
    Matrox C680 PCIe x16
    graphic card from Matrox.

    one card can support max resolution of 4096x2160 per output, drive up to 6 displays.
    can framelock two cards and drive up to 12 displays.
    ie can decorate & paste the whole wall with monitors.

    OK. my next DIY PC hobby project.

    index up we earn $$$.
    index reverse down also earn $$$.
    ok. time to set SL and TP then watch Netflix.

    Let the market decide where it wants to go, and how far it wants to go.
    It is totally totally beyond my control.

    fantastic performance by Russell 2000.
    also great performance by Italy Btp.
    Keep it up Russell and Btp !

    sigh.... missed shorting crude oil even thought I had archived those sleeping
    untradable currencies and included Heating Oil and RB gasoline futures in my main display chart.
    Crude oil, HO, RB movement were all inter correlated.
    Libya crisis ---> lower oil price ?!?!? That's why cannot listen to those news
    because most news are garbages.

    Those who shorted crude oil should be earning as high as $1500 per lot.
    as of now, crude oil has found its comfort zone.

    need to reconfigure my main display chart for better visibility.
    hmmm. should decorate my whole wall with monitors.

    30 May Eur session

    what happened so far ...
    Asian Index futures continue to have healthy day range.
    Crude oil continued its upward journey. But I think its movement will be limited.


    GBP - also trying to break the record, and achieve smallest day range?
    anyway, it can't.
    its day range is already 30 pips.
    it has to hit < 20 pips to beat the record.



    cannot sense the presence of big boys.
    who knows, market might move suddenly later.

    well. Seems like some big boys are around, and crude oil is going down.
    Let's see how low it can go.
