Trend Day Down

Yesterday was a trend day down in the stock indexes (indices?). What that means for me is that if the market retraces some of that move before the open of the next session, I look for a place to put a trade on.

In today's case it was the ES. I was up at about 4.30am London time and had to wait until after 7.30am before my trade appeared.

Price had been trading above the 33EMA on the 2 minute chart. I used 2 minutes as the volume is thin in the Asian session of ES. The Picture tells it all.

    Today I have done nothing, and only seen the evolution of the market, why?, because when I came back from the gym and seen that all markets were in full rotation, this being a very, very delicate situation I decided that it was better to do nothing and in the end that's what I've done

    hoy no he hecho nada, solamente e visto la evolucion del mercado, porque ?, porque cuando he vuelto del gym e visto que todos los mercados estaban en pleno giro, siendo esta una situacion muy pero muy delicada he decidido que mejor era no hacer nada y al final eso es lo que he hecho
