Forex Calls Recap for 2/20/14

That was interesting. Neither of our Forex calls triggered, but all of the markets were so dull that almost nothing triggered in futures or stocks either as we head into options expiration. I've posted the charts for review anyway. Here's a look at the US Dollar Index intraday with our market directional lines: EURUSD:

Stock Picks Recap for 2/19/14

With each stock's recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners…

2013 Market Recap and 2014 Preview

Every year, we wrap the year with a summary of what the markets did for the year and a general discussion of our results. If you'll recall, in the report at the end of 2012 leading into 2013, we had just averted the Fiscal Cliff although the extension to the debt ceiling had only been two months. My expectation was that market volume would pick up, stocks would remain solid and maybe even get…

Futures Recap for 8/2/13

Two calls that triggered on the ES and NQ. See those sections below. Not much for results this week in a dull environment, and Friday wasn't great either. Volume hit 1.6 billion NASDAQ shares. Net ticks: -7 ticks. As usual, let's start by taking a look at the ES and NQ with our market directional lines, VWAP, and Comber on the 5-minute chart from today's session: ES: Mark's long triggered at A…

Forex Calls Recap for 4/18/13

What in the world is with the colors on the charts? There is a method to the madness, believe it or not. Let's just focus for this report on the fact that FOREX charts at Tradesight from now on should have the green right and lower scale background. Futures will be blue and stocks will be black. A slow session with the EURUSD in a 60 pip range. One trigger and I finally gave up and closed it out…

Forex Calls Recap for 12/28/12

Two stop outs and a winner so almost a wash to close out the week and almost the quarter and year (one more session of calls Sunday). As usual on the Sunday report, we will look at the action from Thursday night/Friday, then look at the daily charts heading into the new week, and then glance at the US Dollar Index. The schedule will be the same this week as last. Levels and calls Sunday, although…
