, a double-top on the futures in
the Globex session, worse-than-expected job data, a price trigger break of
both
the 13-minute and hourly supports, and a partridge in a pear tree, if that
doesn’t prepare oneself to take a trade on the side of a clear bias, I’m not
sure what will. As we discussed yesterday, there’s a time to wait and a time to
pounce, and as is often the case, the wait was definitely worth the effort. NQ
1730 was a strong lid in the overnight session, and I’m staring at both the new
hourly and 13-minute trend supports (yes, there are my semantics again …
“supports” for a tradable trend … in this case down) which have thus
far provided exceptional guidance for shorts and will likely be key going
forward.
