This afternoon the action so far in Nas....

Buy the Higher Low into NYO. The first swing up was more than 100 pts to above the next BRN - bank

Wait and Buy the pull back as close to the 50 SS as possible and ride the next swing of 140+ pts up to our second target at the May 17th high

Our next target at the KWOz PP is ~12,640 and I'm not waiting.

Sun's back and it POET'S day, finished for the day & the week

First 90 minutes from the NY Open on my S20 chart

Plenty of buying opportunities into the NYO for 75 pts or more around the 12,800 BRN

Then wait for the US Data at 14:00 GMT and afterwards start selling the Lower Highs / VF MA

The 240+ pts fall from the BRN gave plenty of profits into the low at the confluence of the fast & slow bands just above the 12,550 SS

Buy off the BRN for anothr 45+ and I'm finished for today

Nas made up for Dax's very poor (a Grey Zone ) morning

Buy after that very low volumed Fakeout just after the NY Open and take ~100 pts as the higher volumed wrb ( a shooting star ) poke thru the band.

Wait and buy the pull back to the BRN. Bank ~150 pts as price pushed up thru both the slow & fast bands.......place a Buy Stop above as there was little pull back.

Buy Stop hit and wait to see if the next BRN gets hit. It was, bank again.

Wait for a Lower High and sell. Bank ~70 pts at the BRN

All in two hours from NYO

A better day for ID Dax Traders....the 6 trades in the first 2 hours from XO gave us 164 pts, so well above our minimum target for Dax of 100 pts

Staying for the Sell at 9:01 GMT was a bonus

Hi Dutchy, thanks for your post

and so far its failed again!

Europe's now closing and the New Yorkers are thinking about Martini's & lunch so guess its another couple of sideways hours before they return and may start some action.

TWT. Alerts set and AFK

Yes failed again indeed.

But be careful. US lunch Hour often shows break outs.

Good luck and stay green. (not from to much bear but from green pips)

Nice call Dutchy.

I was AFK when my alerts sounded as price broke under the 12,685 fractals allowing me to get in on part of the drop to the 600 BRN

GM - lethargic start with only 45 pts range in last hour - a Grey Zone in our terms

I sold the opening spike up for 24 pts and will now "sit on my hands" till I see a clear entry

ECB stuff later so anything might happen. I never bother to think about things like that.....just trade what's on my screen!
