ES tonight

[rathcoole_exile]

not posted here in a long while, but feel in the mood to do so today.

I wouldn't mind the market coming back up to the mid 1350s, then Shorting from there

alternatively, if the market falls away pre- and at the Open, then I'd be happy to short from 1345

target 2 for both is 1337

............

can't see anything Long under 1360

..............................................

if NGM12 dips back to 2.400, I wouldn't be adverse to a Long on Natural Gas ...

After the slaughter and crazy volatility of recent weeks, this pair is taking a well earned breather.
But as you can see, it’s done nothing but creep along it’s weekly pivot point for the last 4 or 5 days.

Somethings gotta give, and probably very soon
(Mark, you’re better than me on Fundamentals, there’s probably some News pending which will affect this pair ?)

But News or no News, it would be a good idea to position oneself for a breakout from this tight consolidation,
Either outright directional, if you believe you can anticipate which way it will move
or with a bracket order to catch a move in either direction…

get that 5hit off your charts and I might bother reading it lol. candles only son.

well, its been over 2 years since my last post on my journal, so high time I added another.

Here's the plan for later today, Tuesday 18 Nov

Scenario 1.
Waiting on ES to go above 2044 for a Short from there, target1 2035

(Alternatively if it goes up and keeps going, a Long from 2050, target 2056, but that would be scary stuff into unknown territory)


Scenario 2.
Or completely different scenario, if price dips below 2031 I'd be a tentative buyer
