“The price pattern reminds you that every movement of importance is but a repetition of similar price movements, that just as soon as you can familiarize yourself with the actions of the past, you will be able to anticipate and act correctly and profitably upon forthcoming movements.” – Jesse Livermore

Focus Remains on Tech

As we move into November, these are some of the points we will be focusing on in today’s webinar and video update:
1. How is FB going to settle today post earnings.
2. Are month-end flows going to come out swinging to defend the marks.
3. Can the month-end USD bid continue into November or is it just settling up swing opportunities.
4. How will AAPL trade post earnings, can it really stall the overall selling pressure or will it trigger an even larger correction.
5. Continue to keep an eye on intraday action in USDCNH for clues and tactical opportunities.

“I believe the very best money is made at the market turns. Everyone says you get killed trying to pick tops and bottoms and you make all your money by playing the trend in the middle. Well for twelve years I have been missing the meat in the middle but I have made a lot of money at tops and bottoms.” – Paul Tudor Jones
We will post a host of undated charts and screens on the Twitter feed today but on top of what we said in our our latest Weekly Outlook Video, the only new development that matters is how AMZN and GOOGL open and close post yesterday’s earning release:

If you are not paying attention to CNH, then you are probably not paying attention. Intraday action has been extremely interesting and has been offering an incredible opportunity to see how flows are being influenced by the fight that is taking place at highs. Today we will discuss this in detail and review why this is a key piece of the puzzle to spark the next moves in the fx and metals space.
In terms of equities, remember to keep an eye on the ‘flip the switch’ pivotal levels, so far so good with respect to our outlook. We will review and discuss management of the downside rotations, along with the respecting evolving targets for the bigger moves.
Also don’t forget to keep in mind that AAPL is still doing the heavy lifting and that all in all, it still hasn’t move much…
Don’t forget to keep an eye on Japan.

“Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion.” – Scott Adams
No real change to what we discussed in our latest Weekly Outlook Video. We still have to see what we get out of the BOE and ECB as Global markets continue to trade with a heavy tone.
The easiest way to get a feel for where we stand is just to plot the daily charts of pretty much any market around the world and you will see that they are trading heavy below the 50/100/200 DMAs while US indices are still sitting close to ATH. As you can see in the chart of the day, the ‘two generals’ are still working hard to prop the US up.
Something has to give and we suspect that it will probably end up being down to some kind of headline but one thing is certain, this divergence between the US and the rest of the world will not continue ad infinitum.

Eyes on Tech
“Many can talk the talk but few can translate this into a decent track-record… the basics are, pretty basic but practice is more tricky. If this rings true for you, you might want to focus more on understanding bet size and how that effects the translation of your edge. Obsessing about entry and triggers, all things being equal, is probably the least important aspect yet very few ever get this. Remember that if you get your bet size wrong, you could end up with a negative p&l even with a guaranteed mathematical edge.” – Trading Reflections
Once again, at the risk of sounding like a broken record > eyes on tech. If the big names can’t hold up, then there is very little left to prop up this market that continues to trade heavy with a very different tape than to what we have been witnessing in recent years.
On the DXY side, as we have been highlighting and discussing, the most interesting tactical opportunity seems to be on the aussie for now. After having gone in-depth on the DXY move and what it means for the broader market, in today’s session we will turn our focus focus on yen, swissy and gold.
Regardless of how this plays out, we can’t complain, this continues to be a great market for traders across all asset classes.
