Scratched it for a point of profit. NQ not playing ball. May do a re-entry if NQ pulls out of this, but not so sure where this is headed...
Killed it for a 3 point loss. Size was small as my entry was crap. Reversing long here. 65.75. Time for a time-out if I'm stopped on that one, too.
Choppy tug of war, but it seems like buyers are in control. I'm thinking this resolves to the upside eventually, but maybe not more than 80 today, unless there's some breaking news out of Washington. Thoughts? If there's no deal or agreement today, surely that's just status quo, no? Unless Trump really decides to throw Ukraine under the bus.
The opening price is holding like a rock. Tactically buying dips. RTH range at 16.75 points. Only 1 day so far this year below 20 points. So, we should see some expansion one way or the other. It's possible the market's in waiting mode...
Treasuries are falling. All equity indexes slightly negative. Muted volume (at first sight, would have to verify). If it weren't for the Z ambush, I'd say today, in the middle of August, we're going nowhere. But, hey, when in doubt... JBTFD! (and adjust for this lower volatility) Edit: I'm going to take a nap under the sun, have a drink, read a book and (maybe) be back in a couple of hours, meanwhile, best trading to all
I swear to God it looked like it was breaking for a minute there. At least NQ. But these lows are defended like it's a matter of national security. Sounds like a good plan. Anything good to read? It's unusually hot here in Norway, so I'm going to do the same shortly. Autumn is just around the corner, so each day may be the last summer day for a while.
