I suffer from TDS, too, and noticed it made me pressure the short side a tad too much earlier this year. I still suffer from TDS, but I've once again divorced my politicial views from my short term trading. My point is that I think it's best to keep it strictly technical while day trading US indices as even if the market and economy should eventually tumble there will likely be strong rallies in the interrim - as seen this week.
Can't speak for anyone else of course, nor would I, but I listen to myself deciding how I should trade.
"The funny thing is that sentiment doesn't move markets...actions do. Markets move up and down based on money flowing in to or out of the particular market. Regardless to what the crowd sentiment is, regardless to what your bias is...if you are on the wrong side of the order flow you will lose money. The key to success in the trading business is recognizing when you are on the wrong side of order flow and get off of it ASAP. In this business as in every other aspect of life...money talks." - JustDoingIt
Trump “promising 100% tariffs on chips if they don’t build factories here”. Based on spy right now looks like 12-13 down from 5 pm eastern es close .
Early European session US index futures, India Nifty go up together with DAX ... due to whatever reasons. And gold goes down (reverse of index futures). When the market moves in tandem (or counter-tandem for gold), it is a high probability trade. If everyday the market behaves this way, then day trading success rate will increase to 90%
V-man, forgive us for ours sins, we'll never doubt the V-gods again! (This is insanity) Best trading to all!
