After Friday’s push higher we shouldn’t be surprised to see things gyrate along sideways today. In fact this has become a pretty reliable pattern over the past two years and it has often bestowed us with excellent entry opportunities – today is no exception. Before we get to the setups we first have to attend to a maintenance update on our current long position on the E-Mini:

You may recall that we used Bernie’s Pyramid Calculator to produce a snapshot of our R intervals. But I may have been already under the influence of my Hefeweizen as I screwed up the calculations a little. So above the corrected one which shows us all R units. BTW, if you have no idea what I’m talking about (or what R stands for) then I strongly suggest you catch up.

I’ve painted the levels on this chart so that you can see what’s going on. The 1R mark just so happens to sit a few ticks below a NLBL which incidentally was also breached today. Depending on what happens EOS we have two possible options tonight a minute or two before the closing bell:

  1. We close above 1807.25 (i.e. complete 1R) and that means we would advance our stop to the break even point at 1794.5 (i.e. our entry).
  2. We close below 1807.25 and that would mean that this campaign has come to an end – thus we close our position.
That’s it – very simple. If you recall the reason we would close our position in the case of 2) is that we have already breached the 2R mark and according to our rule set we need to close above it.

Now on to the setups – we have a nice inside day candle on the TF today and I like it. Actually it’s an RTV-S today with a trigger at the Friday but apparently that’s not going to happen.

Quite a bit more below the fold – we’ve got excellent setups on both the FX and futures side. So grab your secret decoder ring and join me in the lair:
