that was a quickie



Although it is a good zone, NQ is weaker than ES, and ES can fill the gap (2349 - 2352.50)

Long in NQ too (later)

My first idea was to exit around 5225, but bailed much sooner... too nervous today, missed some opp, and then didn't want to end with a breakeven trade. Stupid.
This 5212-5217 zone is first decent support on my charts.

ES: This liq. break is nothing special so far, serious sellers would not stop here, and then get back inside Y range.

Flat +16 points last lot

From marketpulse.com

Markets appear to be caught in limbo on Thursday, with European equities mixed and US futures pointing to a similar open on Wall Street.
The minutes from the Federal Reserve on Wednesday, which we were hoping would provide additional clarity on its interest rate expectations, instead displayed the uncertainty the central bank has about how to proceed, largely due to the unknown effects of what Donald Trump’s stimulus plans will have on the economy and inflation. In effect, the Fed is as much in limbo as investors are because markets have rallied strongly at the prospect of “phenomenal” tax cuts and major spending but as of yet, nothing has been delivered.

Trump wants more Nuc. weapons. How comes I don't feel more safe with him?

The guy needs some toys to play with. I hope he will play with the Nucs in his own back yard and not in mine.

Long Gold @1250 SL at BE TP open.

With Trump's nuclear ambitions Gold can overcome 1300 hurdle.

DAX almost tested Jan high (11,895 on futures)
