Futures Trading Levels and Economic Reports for January 11, 2010

Posted on by Ilan

Interesting DATE tomorrow…1-11-11

Other than that I don’t have much to share, market is still waiting for either another leg up or correction to the downside.

I am looking at 1255 to 1273 as the band and think that an hourly close above or below can trigger the next move.

Plan your trade, trade your plan!

Futures Trading Levels and Tips for January 10, 2011

Posted on by Ilan

Trading is SO MUCH MENTAL once you have a concept you believe in, have confidence in. After that there is a lot of psychological work….

Some examples:

  1. Ability to take losses and know not every trade will be a winner and not every day will be a winning day

  2. Ability to stay patient and NOT feel that if you are NOT trading, you are NOT doing your job….

  3. The confidence to stay in winning trades and the discipline to get out of losing trades

  4. Allowing trades some time to work

  5. Not getting down on yourself for “could have should have etc”

  6. Being a hard worker and keeping a journal after certain trading days. Being  a hard worker in putting time and effort learning new approaches, set ups before deciding if its worthy or not. I WILL SAVE THIS LITTLE LIST AND ADD TO IT AS DAYS PROGRESS. Continue reading “Futures Trading Levels and Tips for January 10, 2011”

Futures Trading Levels and Economic Reports for December 20, 2010

Posted on by Ilan

Market is acting a bit funny….reason i am saying that is that we are trading at relatively HIGH prices, over 52 weeks highs, yet the volatility is at a very low level….

What i have noticed over the years is the wave pattern of volatility….from extremely high volatility to extremely low volatility and goes again….so now the question is when is the next wave of higher volatility starts?

Have a great weekend, successful trading week ahead ( only 4 trading days next week, with Thursday packed with economic numbers).

I will be out of the office until Jan. 3rd but you will receive levels and reports published by colleague here at cannon.

happy Holidays and great trading in 2011! Continue reading “Futures Trading Levels and Economic Reports for December 20, 2010”
