EURUSD:
The call triggered short Sunday late afternoon before the start of the chart below, but it gave you a bunch of time from A (on a 13 Seeker sell signal even) to B to get short under LBreak. Hit first target finally at C and still holding the second half with a stop over LBreak:
Stock Picks Recap for 11/25/15
With each stock's recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners or losers.
From the report, no calls.

Futures Calls Recap for 11/25/15

NQ Opening Range Play technically triggered long at A, but as I said in the Lab, if I'm already short the ES, I don't take the NQ the other direction in the rare cases that that happens, especially when the gap fill was below. NQ then triggered short at B and worked too:

Futures Calls Recap for 11/24/15
A nice day for futures. Solid winners in the ES and NQ Opening range plays and then a loser and a winner that netted small gains on the ES. The markets gapped down after the news that Turkey had shot down a Russian jet. We gave a weak bounce, then made new lows, then came back up and filled the gaps over lunch and closed at highs on 1.7 billion shares.
Net ticks: +1.5 ticks.

Futures Calls Recap for 11/23/15
The markets opened a couple of points down and took a while to fill. The NASDAQ side was stronger early and things held up over lunch, then rolled to new lows coming out of lunch before bouncing a bit into the close on a weak 1.5 billion NASDAQ shares. Opening range plays worked. See that section below. Don't expect too many regular calls this week with the light volume Holiday environment.
