Hello Traders,
For 2015 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading!
Hello Traders,
Below is an intra-day update I receive from TradeTheNews.com
It summarize the “main winds that are blowing the market right now”. Below that you will see my weekly chart of the mini Russell with some levels to watch. Today’s closed below 1244 may trigger longer term correction in my opinion.
US equity losses have been relatively subdued this morning, although the VIX volatility index has crept up to its highest level in more than 3.5 months. At their worst levels, the DAX and the CAC were down more than 4% a piece, but they are well off their lows heading into the close of European trading.

As of writing, the DJIA and S&P500 are both down more than 1%, while the Nasdaq is off 1.23%.

After trading as low as 1.0950 yesterday, EUR/USD has steadily climbed back to 1.1177 today.
Recall that Puerto Rico is also having a debt crisis moment of its own. Over the weekend, Puerto Rico Governor Padilla, the country can no longer make payments on its $73 billion in debt. Prices of highly rated municipal bonds are sharply higher this morning, as yields on some maturities fell by as much as six basis points as uncertainty over both Puerto Rico and Greece fueled a flight-to-safety trade.
