  2. 100 %.

    This, along with strong seasonality for November, is why I got very bullish a few weeks ago and have mostly been playing the long side. Way too many people were fighting the market and trying to make it fit their view of what has to happen, i.e., the market should at least retrace here, this isn't normal, those gaps need to fill first and so on.

    While a very impressive move, this isn't something we haven't seen before, so that gives additional confidence.

    Now, that the crowd seems to start getting excessively bullish, it's time to start being a bit wary of a down turn coming just when everyone's not expecting it.

    And as always happen, after some selling everyone is then expecting a market crash and the market will reverse back up. LOL. :)

    Tricky night tonight.
    No opinion. But a big move in one direction or the other is on the way.

  4. You guys still on holidays? NQ pretty good intra-day trading today. Plenty of mini rotations for longs and shorts, may be close to Christmas, but can still ride the waves.

    Do you think this because of the new low on vix?

    Not per say, but that does in fact reflect what I'm seeing now that you mention it.

  8. I have to hand it to you guys. Maybe it's just because I am use to NQ, but ES just seems like 10x more difficult to trade. Long mes and mnq and just getting absolutely paid on mnq, while mes just doing nothing.

  9. Overnight

    Overnight

    Hard to make money on something that doesn't move much. But it (M/ES) does have it's moments. Of course, when it does, NQ is having at least double that moment, heh.
