NVDA earnings: Only +5% despite all the whoohaar – not negative (house of cards survives) but not exciting
Indexes daily charts remain disinterested, gold’s push higher fizzled, crude oil in slump
VIX drops slightly but in context nothing really has changed… yet!
SPX and RUT currently bullish but seen this before over last few weeks – tight leash wise
Software major overhaul complete, cleaner look, awaiting opening bell with baited breath
Big wicks both sides winding me up as much as you – feels like someone made deal with devil to mess with you
Three questions: Is it me? System? Market conditions? If following system, it’s likely devil cursed conditions
Trade through it – seen this before, diversify markets/timeframes, 4hr avoiding 30min noise
Premium/Lazy Poppers, crude oil, gold all working – more than one way to crack a nut
Indexes finally moving together bearishly, VIX high (not out of wood chipper), NVDA earnings today
Monday’s stand aside decision vindicated – would have been mixed outcome and net loss
Penny saved is penny earned – avoiding loss equals profit, narrow range didn’t materialise but decision was right
Overall bear move from daily range highs to lows playing out nicely, futures trades now looking healthy
TnT trades flipping – SPX about to flip bullish to bearish, RUT already flipped bearish
In and out frustrating but small loss now better than hold and hope for wrong direction
