I imagine the market will firm up the rest of the afternoon in anticipation of afterhours Trump re-open news. ----Headed out for 18-----Talk to you soon----
we just had a 50 point down nq move and a 50+ point nq move back up. I can see where the action is annoying, but it's definitely moving.
Hey after the last 5 weeks this is boring as hell. I hit a few nice trades but wiggling back and for 5-7 pts is boring after the last 5 weeks.This is grindy action.
Here's my newbie observation from the past. Before there's any serious selloff, there's about 3-4 days of chop. So we're really due for a drop soon IMO.
I was just commenting on hafez20 saying it's slow is all. I guess for ES it is a little less movement, but that's exactly why I trade multiple indexes.
Jeez. I don't get the complaining here. So far today, major moves: 1. - 40,25 points down 2. + 43,00 points up to a new HOD 3. - 42,50 points down to the LOD 4. Now + 31,75 points up and counting. That's more than 150 points on offer just off the major moves today.
I'm confused. Unless you just love the sheer adrenaline of violent volatility and multiple intraday 1k+ point swings - isn't it better to have large moves in either direction at a slower pace? I would think that would be more beneficial to those experienced with an edge. Kind of like pro poker tournaments where the structure is slower so the more advanced players can do more damage with more time to plan / implement? Genuinely curious btw...
