  • Senate leader says potential shutdown deal coming together but no guarantees

    From northwichguardian.co.uk

    The Republican leader in the US senate said a potential deal was “coming together” on the government shutdown but that there was no guarantee it would end an impasse now stretching to 40 days. There have been few signs of progress over the weekend that could be crucial in a funding fight that has disrupted flights nationwide, threatened food assistance for millions of Americans and left federal workers without pay. Top Republicans are working to present a legislative package that would reopen the government into January while also approving full-year funding for several parts of government.

  • Deal Reportedly ‘Within Reach’ to End Government Shutdown

    From yahoo.com

    A deal is reportedly “within reach” to end the 40-day long government shutdown — according to a new report from Axios. The Axios report — citing sources from both parties — said that Senate Democrats are prepared to advance a package of bills to bring an end to the standoff. The procedural motion which would set up votes on these bills is expected to be supported by at least 10 Senate Democrats, per Axios — which adds that the deal would include a vote on extending Obamacare tax credits in December. The ramifications of the shutdown have begun to ramp up in recent days. The disruption to the Supplemental ... (full story)

If any of you has common sense then you’ll wait to sell the gap up open , that’s what the smart money will doing . Retail aren’t so smart , as can be witnessed on these boards , Don’t buy the open Sunday or sell open Sunday , wait until Asia opens opens . The Asian session will guide the direction Europe open . It’s a game of leverage and trapping the wrong side
It's more a case of low liquidity, making the PA fluctuate in either direction. Even when London opens, the PA (and TA) is not all that reliable. It's when US equities open that the real money calls the shots, often undoing whatever London has done, cleaning out stops above and below and then doing whatever the f*ck it wants thereafter, imo. Europe session is still tradeable but some caution required before US cross currents hit.

End of govt shutdown will boost sentiment and stocks will respond, but all the issues that have dragged down the AI stocks recently still remain, are not really enthralled so much by politics. So, any move up this week could be short-lived.

Otoh, 'tis the season to be jolly (getting close anyway) - Nov-Dec historically see good bull moves for stocks. So...., place your bets....

{quote} Just as a point of fact, retail is significantly outperforming “pros” thus year. A large number of professionals didn’t believe this rally and were selling into weakness. Retail on the other hand has been buyers all along this huge move up. I realize that’s not usually the case but the data this year is quite clear. Retail got it right. Also, statistically gaps are usually followed by additional movement in the gap direction.
I think this is always true. Depending on who (and how) you ask, a surprisingly low percentage of US hedge funds actually beat the market. Over time, less than 20% for sure.

Gap up 1% in nasdaq or more than that?
Seems plausible. Markets began pricing this in after the the Thune commentary Friday though, so that move may have taken a bite out of what would have been a larger gap. Funny how the /nq bounced off the 50MA at exactly the same time (same day) as news comes about a deal being very near.

Crypto markets are certainly taking notice as well.

Here's hoping the deal actually happens (though one has to believe, with this much news piling up, something will occur).


For what it's worth, weekend Nasdaq is only up 0.5% currently....though that does not mean a larger gap up (or down) can't happen: https://www.ig.com/en/indices/market...us-tech-100-e1

{quote} IG gets the direction correct from my observations but rarely the magnitude because it’s only traded by a handful of people. Bitcoin is a better indicator in my opinion. The last big Sunday gap they were not even close in magnitude. Seemed like free money but I don’t have an account there.
I would agree with you on direction but not magnitude. The spreads are crazy as well (30 pts on the nasdaq for example), so I certainly wouldn't recommend rushing to open said account

Crypto does seem like a much more logical place to watch weekend liquidity for sentiment.....but just because BTC is up does not mean the equities will be as well. That said, this weekend it looks like both should see higher prices at the open....now, what happens 5 minutes after THAT is anyone's guess ;-)

I will just make an assumption about authenticity of such comments, BUT....for others reading the thread, there is not a meaningful markdown (yet?) in gold (https://www.ig.com/en/indices/market...s/weekend-gold)

/NQ struggling to hold the 150 gap up, fine with me. What I need is about a 500-700 gainer for the coming week.

Bitcoin up 3% today, 5% off the lows. Not sure how to translate that exactly to stocks, but 5% seems like a lot.

Not so , I’ll tell you now , unequivocally the SP gap open of 6770 will be drawn down to 6670 by this week . Of that I have no doubt , if you don’t know why then quite simply you read the charts . That’s not an offensive remark , it’s purely observational .

Look and you shall find

Ok, post a screenshot of your options trade, obviously you can make hundreds of percent this week by knowing exactly where we are going. If you didn’t put an options trade on, well, then I’ll just say, “cool story bro.”
