YM Traders

  1. Just an interesting observation.

    I don't use any fancy data feeds or premium software like Ensign, E-Signal etc. I just use the simple charting that comes with IB TWS. What I do periodically is go back 1 month (the max time) and draw horizontal lines at major, obvious swing points. Then I do the same for 1 week, then 2 days, 1 day and 4 hours.

    Time and time again, horizontal lines that I drew days and sometimes weeks ago act as support and resistance. Frequently this is within 1-2 ticks.

    This just never ceases to amaze me, how support and resistance are real.

    I just observed this a couple of times today on YM and it prompted me to say something.

    We have come up 500 points without a single day you could call a down day. If we don't see one tomorrow with expiration, it most likely will happen on Monday IMO.
