AS I SEE IT: The E-mini S&P traded higher overnight, but sold off a little during the regular trading session. Still they closed higher on the day. Now I’ll have to see if there is a little move downside, or if the market continues the rally from here. Our short, intermediate, and long-term trading strategies are all long.

Using our Day-Trading Strategies we did very well in the E-mini S&P and the Grains today. I didn’t trade the Oil market

Have as much fun trading as I do.
