Monday Morning Briefing

Welcome to our morning briefing. Here we are reviewing short term setups ahead of the NYSE opening bell. If you are a scalper or swing trader then these setups may be of interest to you. As usual keep in mind that these are short term setups although they could be used as early entries for more longer term positions.

Obviously we’ve had little activity post Christmas and the 25-hour BBs are pretty compressed as would be expected around this time of the year. However I do like that 100-hour creeping higher and on the TF I’m going to risk a long here with a stop below the SMA.

Similar configuration on the NQ – here we are wedged between [...]

Heisenberg Beta

A ton of gapping action on the FX side so I’m not going to touch that one for now. Silver is looking interesting as it responded pretty wildly to the initial claims announcement earlier this hour:

IF it’ll reverse this candle then IMNSHO it’ll do it right here. We’ve hit a pretty pronounced falling diagonal and I’ll risk a small short with a stop above. Absolutely would take a breach higher into a long trade – actually this is what I hope it’ll do as the recent activity suggests a [...]

Merry Christmas, Bitch!

You recall that I promised you all something special for Christmas and as you know Santa Mole never disappoints. I’m sure some of you regulars have an inkling of what I have in store for you guys but for everyone else let me start you off with a little background: Last August The Convict came to visit me here in Valencia – he was very excited to meet up for the first time but also because he just had attended a trading seminar hosted by the Van Tharp group in Berlin.

And it seems like those Krauts were up to something nefarious as he was exposed to a short term trend trading strategy by the German host of his seminar. Apparently it tested out with extremely high [...]
