Notice one of yesterdays thoughts, that I had missed a continuation setup. Yet, the day turned out messy and choppy.
Best time to buy is when macd is low and rising
1D overbought, but 1W has turned bullish so I think we go higher from here
At the close, now feels like exiting on 5/13 feels like that was the right move as we have gone effectively sideways since then

Need to put priority on 1D trend and candles. I missed an entry in has clearly been a continuation setup.
New “truism”. Uptrends aren’t always followed by pullbacks. A sideways “continuation” pattern can develop
Interesting open, qqq popped then started selling off, what’s going on?
Very volatile now with tariff question in limbo. 1D candles looking tired

NVDA reports after close

panic over who is dumping bonds
Tech futures up big after EU tariffs paused. Qs bounce right at 18 day sma? How convenient
Hmmm, seems related to activity in Japan https://www.zerohedge.com/market-recaps/stocks-jump-japan-panics-about-soaring-bond-yields
Russia / Ukraine (nato) war shows no sign of ending. Market doesn’t seem to care
Feels like I missed this bounce entry. Had planned on waiting till daily candle

Reviewing this most recent trade. Entered on 5/8 exit on 5/12 when macd momentum had started to fade on both the 1d and 1hr. Price however continued higher for another $15 or so, but very soon after putting in a doji on 5/19 before starting a pullback. Thats where we are now. The weekly candles look extremely bullish and the weekly macd is very oversold, we could be looking at a bigger move up.

Interesting to see when big trades get put on like this. Someone betting big on tech with $3Bil in call options between now and June 2027 https://x.com/barchart/status/1925823243169960343?s=46&t=B2PnTIZmh6ARVsjqV196yA
Hmmm futures down big, right on time for a pullback as we hit resistance. Funny how that works. Will retail step in again and buy the dip?
After lunch, dip seems to have found some buyers but not enough to go green. Last 10 days or so flat to slightly down. Where to from here?
Hmmm, reports of shale oil peaking. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/oil-war-makes-landfall-permian-rigs-crew-counts-crater-oil-prices-plunge-and-its-about-get

Australia to tax un-realized gains?

Finally getting a pullback?
