Forex Calls Recap for 5/4/20
No calls for the session as I didn't see any clear setups and the markets moved early out of the gate. Back to it tonight.
Here's a look at the US Dollar Index intraday with our market directional lines:
GBPUSD:
Stock Picks Recap for 5/1/20
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, nothing triggered.
From the Messenger/Tradesight_st Twitter Feed, Rich's NFLX triggered long (with market support) and worked enough for a partial:
In total, that's 1 trades triggering with market support, and it worked.
Futures Calls Recap for 5/1/20
A gap and go day to the downside as the markets gapped down big and didn't do much for 90 minutes, then drifted lower ahead of lunch, and that was it for the day on 3.7 billion NASDAQ shares.
Net ticks: +0 ticks.
As usual, let's start by taking a look at the ES and NQ with our market directional lines, VWAP, and Comber on the 5-minute chart from today's session:

ES and NQ Opening and Institutional Range Plays:
ES Opening Range Play triggered short at A but just too far out of range by a little to take, wouldn't blame you if you took it anyway since it was so close:

Forex Calls Recap for 4/30/20
A small loser and a winner for the session. See GBPUSD section below.
Here's a look at the US Dollar Index intraday with our market directional lines:
GBPUSD:
Our short triggered soon after I posted the calls, which is so early that you should have been half size if you took it, and it stopped. Can't even show it on the chart because it is too far back to the left. Meanwhile, our long triggered at A, hit first target perfectly at B, and stopped out of the second half under the entry at C before the GBPUSD curled up and ran. Most of you likely took the long over R2 after that since the level was set beautifully and ran for 100 pips:

A minor winner (very minor) for the session. See GBPUSD section below.

GBPUSD:
Triggered long at A, and for the first time in a while, we had the situation where only part of your trade hit the partial if you are order staggering the way that we teach at B, the rest stopped under the entry:
