After the NY Open, NQ made an early retest of its TD's Low area, putting in a higher low. Since then it is up over 300 pts and heading for my 100% target which is within a Bushy Hedged 14,200 BRN With Europe now closing its time for a break before the next leg up {image}

Target hit at 17:39 CET, 4 minutes after Dax's Cash close - what a surprise

Time for a cold Coronita

At some point the dip must end, so now prices have to rise a little bit, maybe even more later....we'll see.
Then crude oil down is a great support for Techs rise.

I guess there's more upside to come, at least for NQ. But it was a good morning, so I might just go out and enjoy the beautiful day.

Over Easter I've decided to go with tick charts for both morning and afternoon sessions. No candle patterns, no candle closes to wait for, but simply entering when levels hold or break. KISS and with a lot more precision than time-based charts.

Interesting, how many ticks are you using, before I read your post I had put a 100 tick chart up as a trial

The chart above is a 50 tick chart with the colour zone defined by EMAs 20 and 89. Then daily VWAP levels, and a 19 ATR channel around EMA1400. How your tick charts look very much depend on broker if you are trading CFDs, so some tuning michght be needed,

Buying off Camarilla S4 after the cash close (vertical yellow line) last night continuing overnight. Long off EMA1400 just after 8am for a ride to Camarilla R3.

I was thinking of buying the pull back to the BRN, but on looking at the hourly chart I decided not too

One of the clearest charts I have ever seen.....Buy NYO and ride the ~300 pts rally in the first hour after the NY Open.

Bank and walk away

KISS

This morning's action in Dax...

After yesterday's wide ranged day - 310 pts vs the 5 ADR of 257 pts - a quiter day is not unexpedted.

The early failure - after XO - to move above the BRN led to a downswing of 66 pts with several clear entry areas.

Then the Higher Lows from 7:33 gmt onwards have several clear buy areas into the 97 pts upsing which lasted 72 minutes.

So, for me, that finished my morning's trading
