Next week!

It is a short week since the market is closed on Monday.

Earning season starts. We want to stay in the market and enjoy the ride, with cautious though.

I feel like that we might see some pull back on Tuesday and Wednesday.。  Last week: ES: 2736-2790. Last two weeks: ES(2674-2790)  NQ:6398-6778.

Bull needs to be cautious when more people are bullish about the market. The VIX was up with the market as well on Friday.

    Range: 2780+/-5-2805+/-5 . It can't gap up and run away forever. Let's see

Trend continues

Here is the last weekend's result from TD Ameritrade.

Here is now:  I did some small adjustment.

What to expect for the next week and trading plan.

I'm reviewing the market and what I have done last week.

One of my new year resolution when it comes to the trading is not to place any trade in the afterhours.  I did it.  I will continue working on that!

The second of my goal is not to jump into a trade unless it is a strong trend. (I'm still working on that!)

I'm not afraid of chasing long and holding them. But I need to work on how to reduce the loss when the market is against me.

The next week is pretty uneventful! Range? Let me think about it and come up with a plan.

Weekly summary.

HAHA, I have never seen the market run like that!

Good thing is that I have been on it all the time. (But I did add some covered call on some of the contracts the other day). Here is the trading result from TD Ameritrade. I have NQs. Similar result from IB,
