Your hindsight analysis is impeccable. Now tell us what your analysis says about Monday, and the specific trades you took based on your theories. You know, because "end of story" suggests you are awfully confident about something.
Well I have already took three trades on it first in V Visa bought 10 puts that gave me 2100usd over three hours time last thursday, And then I shorted MNQ which gave me 1200 usd three days ago and yesterday i again shorted MNQ but i covered early the move would have given me 2400 usd in 3 hours but i made just above 700 usd planning on doing more..monday can be a blood bath i reckon gotta do my homework i like to analyse single stock to industry groups i rarely check the market indices but i guess thats where the money is at the moment . XLK looks vulnerable ..but hey what do i know!
Market shrimping before the Fed next week. One hand raises rates, the other paves the way for increased lending which delays the recession.
If the chart is an intraday one I would give it more credit. Anything more than a few minutes/hrs is a crap shoot, let alone overnight. The future hasn’t happened yet. How does one know and predict in any precise way?
