Sunday Night Futures

Gold & Silver, Update

We’re just about two and a half hours into the Sunday, overnight session.

Once again, it’s not necessarily about ‘what’s happening’, but ‘what’s not happening’.

Both Gold and Siver June contracts, GDM 25 and SIM25 respectively, are trading lower but have not made a new daily low … yet.

As of this post, silver is closer to a new daily low than gold.

The 24-Hour Market

As a reminder, some equities and ETFs are now essentially trading 24-hours a day (five days a week).

Leveraged Inverse Fund (for GDX), DUST is one of them.

The close on Friday for DUST, was 29.91. It’s now at 29.94, indicating some slight upward pressure (down on GDX).

It may be the immediate (upward) pressure on gold has been mitigated by this report (not advice, not a recommendation).

How To Use ‘Seasonality’

July 21, 2024 By in Livermore, Seasonality, SOXS, SOXS-24-12, SOXX, Trump, ZeroHedge

Three Months of Down

For the next three-months, until the end of October, the (net) seasonality of the markets is down.

That’s not all.

According to this link, we have a bevy of technical and fundamentals suggesting the overall direction of the markets is to lower levels (not advice, not a recommendation).

Lower is good … at least if one is positioned short.

With that, we’ll look at the semiconductors, SOXX, to see how seasonality might help on a (potential) short position.

Semiconductors SOXX, Daily

If the channel remains intact, we’re still at the beginning.

Of course, the very next session can completely blow this analysis apart. That’s the way of the markets.

For now, however, we do have a channel, we do have the above-mentioned seasonality; probability and pressure is to the downside (not advice, not a recommendation).

Turkey & Position

For those familiar with ‘Reminiscences‘, and ‘Turkey’, a.k.a. Mr. Partridge, we should all know the importance of maintaining position.

The objective, therefore, is to attempt to maintain a short position (via SOXS, or other short) as long as possible, given the trading channel and bearish bias (not advice, not a recommendation).

Simple But Not Easy

One of the very first things the Online Trading Academy (Dallas) told their class back in the day, working the markets with a profitable plan of action should be ‘simple’.

They also said, the problem is, it’s not easy.

Here’s just one unrelated example of a simple job (i.e. ‘protection’) that’s obviously, not easy.
