  1. I used to do Hangseng too but don't you feel like Hangseng moves like really "unpleasant" way many times? It does those zig zags that go 100 ticks min without any reason. I haven't traded Hangseng for a long time. Nasdaq pre-market a much better gentleman.

  2. Hey Qtrader thanks for the sharing. Since Nasdaq makes up at least 40% of my trades I cannot give up, it's given me big profits especially recent few months. Do you have any special tips on this "how PAs work"? I'd like to study. Thanks.

  3. Ok currently I have 4 CLX24 contracts, target 72.7, but I'm setting up 2 contracts with stop loss at 71.30. Maybe re-add them later at a better price.

    Personally I find the way Hangseng moves is no different from other index / commodity / precious metal / bonds / currencies ... futures.

    Sometimes, those futures movement could be trendy, sometimes untrendy/ choppy/crabby/chaotic/messy.

    So for today, Hangseng (and copper) movement is quite trendy.
    And the most trendy movement goes to Swedish OMXS30.
    And gold & NQ movement are rather untrendy.

  9. Nasdaq trade closed at target with $1820 profit. CLX 4 contracts currently eating up all of that but I'm still long view on oil.
