I have decided not to trade today due to some personal commitment in the afternoon session. No short position for SIMSCI was established in ther morning after watching Nikkei making a higher low and failed to form a failure swing in RSI. It is likely to move up and might lead SIMSCI to bounce as well in the afternoon session. In addition, a potential double bottom formation was found in SIMSCI chart as well.

Some charting problems in the early of the week, not a good week with only small gain. I close the week earlier with positive note.

In the first hour of trading, downtrend is formed. With Nikkei loses around -200 points and HangSeng loses around -150 point, sentiment is negative biased. I am looking for opportunity to establish Short position on SIMSCI.

Long position of SIMSCI was closed at 282.4. Volume did not support buyers to push up further, and RSI was forming failure swing. A descending triangle was forming as well. I do not like the situation like this. Closed the trade with small gain. +0.4 point.

I was very unhappy with the liquidity of SIMSCI. Sometimes it does give me the feeling of ‘Why on the earth I am wasting my time trading this dummy index futures?’. Look at the daily volume, it is hardly cross 5000 contracts.

I do see opportunity in SIMSCI futures trading, however, given the lack of liquidity, I am considering switching to some other better choice.

This is 10-min chart of SIMSCI as at 3.30pm.

After Nikkei gaining +400 points. I have established a Long position of SIMSCI at 282. SIMSCI does not seem to be strong. Closed trailing stop is placed.
