AS I SEE IT: The market was lower again in the overnight market. During the first 30-minutes of trading the E-mini S&P traded exactly to support and then rallied 14.50 points. The next hour it traded down and took out yesterday’s low by a couple points before turning and rallying all the way back up closing the gap. During the last hour the E-mini fell back 24 points into the close.

The market is getting a little oversold at these prices, but the news over the weekend and earnings the first few days next week will give us direction.

The Soaring Phoenix Day-Trading Market Strategies got off to a rocky start in the E-mini S&P for the first 3 hours but made up for it during the last 2 hours. The Oil contract also traded well today. I didn’t trade the grains again today because two fast markets are all I can concentrate on at one time. Because of the large range days this has been a very good week for us.

I HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT WEEK TOO!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!


There’s no reason you can’t have as much fun trading as I do!
