AS I SEE IT: The market traded much lower in overnight trading and after the regular trading session opened, but that reversed after the first hour of trading. The market traded sideways to higher for the rest of the day, closing near the high of the day.
This market has been trading on news and government reports so traders have to be nimble all day. For today the charts look like the market is trying to put in a short term bottom, but I know that can all change in a minute so I’ll just follow our strategies and take what they give me.
I HOPE YOU MADE MONEY TODAY!
You can’t have as much fun trading as I do!
