God yields look so good but earnings reports, idk after scoring big so ready for cushy equity market. Im so fucking sick of these insane swings. Gonna stockpile on a few equity positions and just forget about it for abit. Although not just jamming it all in since I do think spx should see quite abit more red.

Need more money on the account to trade gold or trade micro gold futures (mgc) gold is running to hard for me exceeding max risk per trade.

I winded up buying gold today too. It’s got to hit $1,700 and I think we see a new all time high this year.

We might have a short-term bottom in place for ES. Normally bear market lows are retested so I wouldn’t do any long-term buying yet... Here’s how I think this might play out.

The rally: Market thinks all our problems are solved. Covid-19 is sort of beat because an effective treatment has been discovered and on the economics side we are okay because there’s all this fiscal stimulus now and central banks are printing like never before.

The retest: Covid-19 may or may not actually be fixed, not my area of expertise so I can’t speculate there. Either way, the economy is going to hurt from this. You can’t just restart it immediately, there will be a recession and markets will begin to appreciate it more as bad data comes in and companies go bankrupt. Negative economic feedback loops have already started and they’re not that quick to break. It will take longer than the market appreciates for these issues to be resolved.

And by the way, the oil plunge might have been significant enough to cause a recession even if it weren’t for Covid-19. That’s also a problem that still needs to be resolved.

Although I think that a retest will happen much sooner. Still surprised spx ran so hard I knew there was a bounce coming which was why I wasnt trading /es but even then woah, I know the fed but still seems abit sharp of a bounce.

Could see es dropping hard today. But could see another rally given how high it ended yesterday.

Also Ive found that watching /cl has been a great tool for helping predict /es in past 1-2 weeks; ever since wti plunge

Personally I still think xau is a good pickup at this price with state of market and do believe we'll see 2000 easily by end of year.

Its been 12 years since last recession, I think it would be very naive to believe that 1700 is the top of xau

Well for now the US has a stimulus package agreed and the markets are rising.

Depending on news of course but I think the targets are ..

Caution below 1.07916 imo

Retrace to 226xx based on weekly make sense. I think the worst has yet to come coronawise for the US so i wouldn't be surprised to see 15K.

Statistically speaking, purely based on today’s return the odds strongly favor tomorrow being down and the odds of being down a week out are over 50%.

Maybe short term. I don’t like the euro due to Italy and Spain having so much trouble with the virus.

I wouldn’t be surprised by that either. The short-term bottom may not be in. Even if it is, we could go lower on the retest.

Their economies are getting crushed. If you do the math and look at the debt compared to GDP you know it will be much worse than Greece. Attachment is a bit old but you get the point.

That’s actually one reason I like gold. It’s possible the Eurozone comes apart from this and that should give gold quite a bit of upside.

Entering /si, gold to silver ratio seems bound for bounce, and metals trading seems more ideal than risky indices at the moment.

Good luck trading everyone!
