and now short trg 5.7k
I read an interesting article this morning talking about how markets that had once been uncorrelated grew correlated during the crisis at the end of 2008 and during 2009 so we had "risk on" and "risk off" days that were easy to predict. For example, emerging market stocks or oil would rise when risk was on, while the dollar and US Treasurys would rise on risk off days.
So far this year, that situation is changing. The euro/dollar exchange rate's correlation with the S&P 500, on a daily basis, has dropped to 44 per cent this year from 50 per cent last year. In the run-up to the crisis, it was only 20.3 per cent. In the longer term, on a rolling basis over 60 days, the correlation between the dollar and stocks peaked at 68 per cent last October, and now stands at 45 per cent.
WS - have you noticed this and are you finding it harder to draw your correlations?
OIL - H&S formation - neckline @ $79.50, if breached projected downside target of $76 - $77
You dont an expert but once you will become ......:cheesy:
Try to catch the moves from 14 to 18:00 , then you got the same points as if you swing
3 days long . You will see , they are only 5-20 minutes long not more .
So what ? Time is money ..... I got enough so I would help others .
My average is 80 - 150 points per hour in the main trading time 14-18:00.
Stop trading so much , because when you overtraded , then you will loose money .
3 hours concentraded trading is enough for one day , more brings nothing.
To make a rest is very importent because humans are not machines like robots .
The reason why I dont trade in a chat is : alone I get more points ...
You are want to help traders , that is ok for me , very kind from you .
The point is not , if you trade with money , the point is :
WHEN I TRADE WITH MONEY AND WHY
everybody who understand this is becoming a good trader I hope for all .
have a nice day
