Forex Calls Recap for 9/5/13
Here's a look at the US Dollar Index intraday with our market directional lines:
GBPUSD:
At most a leg of the short might have triggered at A and stopped under our order staggering rules. The long also swept the trigger at B, but you might have ended up in more of this one. Later, the short triggered at C and came close to the first target, so you might have taken a piece off, and I closed the rest at the entry level at the end of the chart:
Stock Picks Recap for 9/4/13
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, ASTX triggered long (with market support) and worked, about two hours after it triggered, it was halted for news and then spiked to as high as $9.40:

Futures Calls Recap for 9/3/13
The trade call on the NQ didn't trigger, and we saw volume was extremely light again after the first choppy hour (minus the MSFT volume from the Nokia purchase). The market did drop over lunch when members of Congress started coming out in favor of an attack on Syria. NASDAQ volume closed at 1.5 billion shares, but it would have been 1.36 without the extra MSFT volume.
Net ticks: +0 ticks.
