Hello Traders,

For 2015 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading!

Hello Traders,

I just wrote this one for forexmagnates.com yesterday and wanted to share with you.

Silver Futures at the Crossroads

After a long period of declining prices we finally saw a significant bounce on silver futures over these past couple of weeks. The question I ask myself is: Is this a good place to sell, is this just a bounce/short covering and the trend lower will resume?

OR

Is this rally a beginning of a breakout to the upside and trend reversal?

Only time will provide the correct answer but until then I think the following two strategies are worth looking at:

1.  Sell futures right around the $17 level and place a stop on the short along with another stop to go long if market breaks above $17.30 (see chart below).
2.  Sell call option premium on rallies and sell put option premium on sell offs as we take the assumption that the market will be trading between $16 and $18 for the next few weeks. Selling premium is a dangerous strategy with unlimited risk.

As I don’t see any major changes in the fundamental picture for silver, I like to use the chart and technical studies in an attempt to come up with a good risk-reward trade.

Hello Traders,

In hindsight it always looks easier…ECB announces QE – “We should have known it was going up….”  In reality the market was very jittery to start the cash session with some very sharp moves lower before it started running up and up….

I think that when this is all said and done, one day down the road, the end result will NOT be pretty for global markets but until then we need to trade what there is and not what we think should be…..

Hello Traders,

For 2015 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading!

ECB decision and verbiage in regards to Euro Zone QE will move the markets early tomorrow morning ( 7:30 AM central time). Be aware and be ready.

We got a sneak preview today when some reports came out in regards to this matter.

VOLATILITY is the keyword today and the last few weeks.
Personally I think this market has been harder to trade.
Do your homework. Review the charts over different time frames.
Do you need to adjust entry techniques? Do you need to use LESS leverage? Perhaps your stops needs to be adjusted based on volatility?

i am just throwing some ideas out there to help you think, research and hopefully implement and adapt to what I consider a different market for day trading than we have seen for most of 2014.

In between I am sharing with you my Crude Oil 18 tick range bar chart from today with some good and some not so good signals for your review:

CLE - Crude Light (Globex), Equalized Active Continuation : Range Bar, 18 Tick Units

CLE – Crude Light (Globex), Equalized Active Continuation : Range Bar, 18 Tick Units

Would you like to have access to the DIAMOND and TOPAZ and 5T ALGOs as shown above

and be able to apply for any market and any time frame on your own PC ?   You can now have a three weeks free trial where the ALGO is enabled along with few studies for your own sierra/ ATcharts.  The trial comes with a 23 page PDF booklet which explains the concepts, risks and methodology in more details.

Hello Traders,

For 2015 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading!

Swiss franc made a huge move today as Swiss officials decided to detach the Swiss rate from the Euro currency….This was probably the biggest one day move I have witnessed in any commodity/futures market percent wise in my 17 years as a broker ( at the high today it was up approx. 25%, closed up 17%!!!)…..

Monthly chart below for general knowledge below…

And repeating yesterday’s words below as today was even a crazier day than any so far…..
