Monday - August 31, 2020 Index Futures Watch /ES opened Sunday night at 3508.5 and has rallied higher, giving us a aftermarket high of 3524.5. We remain well above the VA Range and VA High 3467. Above I have marked a longer-term trendline with range expansion occurring over multiple years; I expect this to hold as resistance over the next week for at least a short-term pullback into normal price targets, such as 3400 support and 3380 V POC. 10D 30M Chart 5Y 1D Chart /NQ opened Sunday night at 12002.75 and and has rallied higher, giving us a aftermarket high of 12091.75. The VA range is wide, with our V POC 11965 sitting within grasp. We would need to lose this area for a volume pocket to open below us, leading to roughly 11830 Support from 08/27 Thursday's session and 17000 as our target if we fall through (08/24 Session High and area of volume). We are well above our main trendline on longer timeframes and can be overdue for a larger pullback on market weakness. 10D 30M Chart 1Y 1D Chart /RTY opened Sunday night at 1576.9 and and has rallied higher, giving us a aftermarket high of 1589.8. We're pulling back right to VA High 1578, with a healthy short-term uptrend after breakout out of last week's retracement. Our short-term target remains the recent high around 1605 and 1610 previous support turned resistance before the crash. 10D 30M Chart 1Y 1D Chart Premarket Review at 9:00 ET Interesting Markets: Natural Gas down 3%, a lovely extension into a gap fill on the daily and pulling back. Market remains strong and simply needs a pullback. Dollar Index $DXY hanging right at support 92 area, continues to remain very weak with a shallow bounce at support on prior weeks. Bonds down slightly, watching $TLT for a bounce play into an extended selloff last Thursday. Crude up .7%, remains tightly range bound between 41.5 and 43.5, but building higher lows and attempting to break out of the range on a confirmation breakout or fail and breakdown. Silver up 1.5% vs Gold flat, getting above 28.5 in Silver would be a nice confirmation that this tightening range from 24/30 is trying to continue higher after a large consolidation. Volatility Futures up slightly, with the $VIX elevated 7.7%; we continue to see larger market participants starting to buy volatility and possible risk in the markets coming up soon. Premarket Sectors at 9:15 ET Volume light this morning, so false readings are possible. Using Daily Charts for general ideas. $XBI BioTech nice support forming at prior breakout area, slight gap up and possible confirmation of retracement breakout. $XHB Home Builders strong uptrend, slight pullback last week into gap up and possible next leg higher. $XLB Materials ATH remains strong. $XLC ATH, gap up may just be misprint, but strong extension last week. $XLE Energy Trying to hold prior support around 36 and break out of larger retracement pullback from 39.50 bounce. $XLF Financials at 200 SMA on Daily, rejecting in PM. $XLI Industrials, trying to break out of smaller Handle and extend into higher ranges, currently rejecting in PM. $XLK Technology, remains strong overall, but may be too extended to continue holding markets higher. $XLP Cons. Staples, ATH, strong uptrend. $XLRE Trying to clear recent 36.8 highs, higher lows formed into tightening ranges. $XLU Weak overall, trying to hold 58.50 support area from early July and last week lows. $XLV ATH, having trouble extending well above current range, choppy action. $XLY Cons. Disc. Strong uptrend, remains elevated and continuing higher. $XME Metals holding support and trying to clear 25 area which is major resistance from last year multiple tests. Things to Watch: $AAPL/$TSLA - Stock Split insanity. $NIO/$WKHS - High volume volatile names in EV/ICE Replacement sector Volatility Products - Elevated VIX and Market can be primed for a large drop.

Ross is good and very fast, in and out. I like BBT because they look at higher floats and gives me time to decide if I'm in or out of a trade. I understand the entire concept of trading, but BBT has done a better job explain a few details which I like. Ross lately has been doing some crazy stuff, but no way can I do what he does.

Here are a few pics of my TradeBook. I used OneNote and made a Template. I have 4 templates total right now both 1MinOrbs and both 5MinOrbs. Template I will be able to click whichever strategy, then just hit add page and it will automatically load the template. I can then add my screen pics with drag and drop. Go through my checklists, input my entries exits, put a checkbox in my Psychology. then put any notes on what I could have done better in the trade to help see where my areas of improvement are. I print each trade out and put it in my BBT TradeBook 3 Ring Binder. Today I went back and entered all of my 1MinOrbUps for the past two months and printed them out. I'm considering printing out the page without filling out the checkboxes and remarks. I think doing it by hand might have a better "imprint" on my mind.

Its taff trading the US market when living in the US. at least with an office job and regular office hours as they match really bad with wall street open hours. I have lived in the US east coast area for 2 years and this was exactly the reason why I went back to germany. I can only talk for myself but for me, it always destracted me from my actual work, I often needed to watch my positions and sometimes you also have to monitor them closely. In the webinars about "average joe trading" He talks about his strategy to deal with this issue. I'm glad to read that you also do 20 trades a day if trading all day. This is also what I take through a day more or less and I'm asking myself if its overtrading

Hi @FFClm no news about Alliance.

Hi everyone my name is Bernard am from Italy, i have been interested in trading for years but most of the time I just did not have the time and/or money to really get into it, and i work in a transport service company as a driver so i move from state to state in Italy am 30 years old and single. I came across (ANDREW) book on amazon early this year mid January and to honestly speaking he got me more interested and seriously about trading after reading the book. I really like the chat community and am looking forward to learning from everyone and become a trader.
