Rate hike in December?

thanks to Joules for introducing me to timingcharts!

no worries ...and for the folks who arent being muppets and enjoy free COT representational charts only

simply select from C.O.T drop down
select from the Symbol drop down
select from the lower time frame (how many years)
then draw the horizontal bar to pin point the study period you want
and scroll across the chart to pop up a position size for any specific week you want

simple, free....here's a useable example https://www.aussiestockforums.com/f...=12971&page=16&p=903841&viewfull=1#post903841

This pattern appears a lot. The formation of a smaller and smaller range followed by a breakout (down in this example) that attempts to go higher but hits the lower trend line and chucks a whoopsy. Don't get me wrong. i want the ASX to rise but the U.S determines such things

For the Auction market theorists - how do you see the FTSE? What clues do you look for which lead to a break of a balanced market?

That 6898 level is quite critical and a trade level. For me i can't just buy it or sell it. I need to see some trade at that level. If it took it out convincingly that i'd consider selling the inevitable retest. Look for a tail if you want to buy it. You should be watching the GBP or 6E while trading the FTSE The UK data has spiked gold, which would indicate further easing....which should be bullish for equities right.

Tx Can, agreed I need a set up.

I watch the gbp but I try to use it to confirm rather than lead my decisions

La Femme Nikkei-ta is very enticing

Specs are long - history on their side based on cursory reading

Boat's overloaded on one side.... but hedge funds and instos are starting to get long

Since that post, Nikkei up 750 points. Timing charts more useful than gurus claiming that Nikkei was doomed

If you are day trading, you may need session volume profile and the ability to create volume profiles over areas of your choice where price has visited before. Key is to capture longer timeframe view, which cannot be derived from that chart.

I'd look at Market delta, Sierra Charts or tradingview pro, which support these features.

That volume blob is not suitable for day trading IMO

 

[Wysiwyg]

Haven't had a decent single session point move on the DOW for awhile. Must be something brewing for a big session either way.

 

[Quant]

Just a quick chart of interest seeing as next week its on , might be conicidence but elections seem to mark multi month/year swing high/lows

 

[Quant]

Given NFP tonight this is another interesting chart of US unemployment rate with SPX overlay

 

[Wysiwyg]

That is a very very interesting extrapolation.

Nealy every little change in Florida vote count is moving futures and the Mexican Peso dramatically
This is trader heaven!!

 

[CanOz]

The book is extremely thin on the 6m futures....be careful if you're trading this....

Right about here you can start to see that people will actually start to think Trump will not be too bad(hurd mentality), people will like the fact that Republicans could now break the deadlock. If Hillary wins we're back to where we were yesterday. It's a win win you can't lose!

OMG FTSE is just sooo thin - incredible

 

[kid hustlr]

FTSE almost completely round tripped.

Someone stuff a bid for 50 in the ladder and the market all just jumps in front and it runs 80 points haha
