104 -
105 -The market is going to gravitate back to it IF we are NOT TRENDING and many times become REAL support/resistance
106 -
107 -You should have the last 4 NWOGs + the current week's NWOG on your chart. So 5 in total. Have a separate template for only NWOG.

217 -If you believe that you have figured out where the low is in the market for a particular price swing and you think its gonna go up to an old high where BSL is, the equilibrium of that run and below is where the best buy opportunities occur.
218 -
219 -As soon as we get to the upper quarter of where the target is, the market is not likely to go back for sell stops. This is because price will be in a hurry to run out Buy stops in so traders don't get the opportunity for those orders to be pulled.

228 228  
229 -When trading futures indices you need to also consider how we closed the previous session and where we opened at 9:30 because that difference is a REAL Liquidity Void. We call it the Opening range gap.
230 -
231 -Price has a tendency to not let these areas stay unfilled for too long.
232 -
233 -At 9:30 open, every single day as an index futures trader you are going to toggle RTH on and identify the Opening Range Gap:
234 -
235 -We are opening up with a Premium if the gap is higher than the previous session close
236 -
237 -We are opening up at a Discount if the gap is lower than the previous session close

252 252  
253 -1) On the heels of any holiday that impacts normal trading hours the very next trading session, the morning is likely to be VERY low probability/choppy. The market is more prone to seek and destroy conditions
254 -
255 -(For example on Monday the market is closed due to a bank holiday, expect a choppy AM session going into Tuesday)
256 -
257 --Let the market fall back to its normalcy
258 -
259 --Only retail traders are rushing to the markets on a day like this like gamblers at a casino
