Dummy day trading 31-Jul-2006 I: 1st hour Asian trading

by Leave a Comment

Good morning! 🙂

I was so excited after spending two days (full day man, I skipped my gym wokout session and movie, Oops) to set up this site. What do you think about it? Oh, the banner background is one of famous bay in Singapore, and the place where some cool yachts park. (Man, I am going to park mine there, someday ..🙂 )

Alrite, back to business, It was a positive day for DJ last Friday. Asian markets are continuing the positive sentiment (I guess, part of the force comes from the earning season trading). In the first hour of trading, I see Nikkei futures gaining around +200 points, though most of them are due to opening gap, intraday trend stays above moving averages and currently moving sideway.

MSCI Taiwan (TIMSCI) opened high and pulling back after opening gap. Gap is not filled. And it in fact, stays above moving averages. Intraday trend looks up. I am only looking at Long opportunity at this point time.

MSCI Singapore (SIMSCI), I am not trading this index futures, but I am interested in following SG market. Intraday trend looks up. I will only consider LONG for day trading purpose at this point of time. Looking at SG stocks market, advanced/decline is around 229/61. Pretty positive for the morning session

New home for Gav!

Yes, this is my new home. Gav's better trading blog just got its new home. Tradergav.com. So, Why the sudden move? In fact ,I have been planning this for long. And, this is a wonderful birthday present from my fiancee I have managed to import all my postings from blogger.com (Better-trading.blogspot.com), and catergorized into Old blog archive. However, some of the charts which are hosted at blogger.com are not displaying properly in this new server. So I will still keep my old blog Better-Trading.blogspot.com alive just for reference purposes. Meanwhile, I am slowly moving the charts to my server. New home, enjoy new freedom of posting, better way of keeping my journals.

Good morning!
Bulls made a cheat yesterday on Dow futures. It headed up in the opening, and pressed by bears. I did not make any trade yesterday.
A quick one. SIMSCI is moving above intrady moving average. Though I see some weakness in the uptrend, it is not strong enough for me to go Short.
TIMSCI is still moving in intraday uptrend as well. I am not considering any SHORT for this morning.

By the way, I am looking at August contract for both index futures.

Alrite, I am being a loser today. In fact, I did not pay much attention to the market. Instead, I was day dreaming, and doing some stupid work out of trading. Long opportunities appeared. Simple and profitable entries, and yet, no trade was taken.

Continue doing this, I will be hungry to death someday.

Anyway, here is the 15-min chart of MSCI Taiwan index futures.
