Swing Trades DAX/DOW/NQ/GOLD

Whilst managing investments online, I've started trading again this year around the Opens .... I notice I can't quite bring myself to have two clouds on the same chart (doubtless a limitation of my old brain ):

MNQ Long 805 4 lot

Buyers not in a que yet

ES Mini long 1 lot 5840
Closed +10.5p 1 lot at -0.25% (target)

If SnP can cross the -0.25% to Y close, the NQ could lift to 20.900<>950 (Fridays close at 21.020

SnP (58)50 is a RS level/point
SnP Fridays close at 5866 zone

Buyers giving up. No 5850/-0.25% up cross

Markets are Bearish and it cost a lot of effort to turn Bullish now.
Waiting for US CPI and Q4 numbers

DOW at 42.400 +0.5%/DPP. RS.

DAX & DOW perform better then SnP (ES) & NQ

Many sell wicks is a sign of absence of buyers

Done for Today

Getting close to Midnight

Early morning trading was better then the US open.

Technology stocks popular with retail investors tumbled Monday as investors took profits on their 2024 winners and dumped the more speculative names in an environment of rising interest rates.

Nvidia slumped 3%. Palantir dropped 4%, while quantum computing winner Rigetti Computing plunged 22%. Last year’s Nasdaq winner AppLovin also sold off about 2%.

The sell-off comes amid a rise in bond yields, with the 10-year Treasury yield touching its highest level since late 2023 on Monday. A strong jobs report Friday cast doubt over whether the Federal Reserve will continue cutting interest rates at all this year.

Other famed technology stocks also dropped Monday, with Tesla last down about 1%. Semiconductor stock Micron Technology declined 5%.
Megacap tech names Apple, Meta Platforms and Alphabet dropped more than 2% each, while Amazon and Microsoft edged down less than 1%.

Quantum computing stocks that got a boost from last year’s positive Alphabet chip announcement also plunged, with D-Wave plunging 28%. IonQ lost 10%. The selloff came on the heels of commentary from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg that echoed Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s commentary last week suggesting that useful quantum computers are decades away.

Overnight in the U.S., the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed, outperforming the market, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped as traders continued to sell off major tech stocks that have powered the bull market.

Investors rotate into nontech shares such as Caterpillar, JPMorgan and UnitedHealth.

The Trump Vance Inaugural Committee has raised more than $170 million, and is on track to end up with more than $200 million to spend on inaugural events and operationsThat unprecedented jump in spending came out to about $37,000 per minute, more than four times the $8,600 per minute spent during Obama’s first inauguration

That unprecedented jump in spending came out to about $37,000 per minute, more than four times the $8,600 per minute spent during Obama’s first inauguration,

That unprecedented jump in spending came out to about $37,000 per minute, more than four times the $8,600 per minute spent during Obama’s first inauguration.

Possibly in response to the increased interest in currying Trump’s favor, the inaugural committee is reportedly asking top donors to give a minimum of $1 million — twice as much as it requested in 2017 — for the opportunity to get some direct face time with the president- or vice president-elect.

American exaggertion facilitated by hypocritical corrupt bootlickers like Rocket man Musk/Mark Sugarbelly/Jeff Bezos and Tim Cook. Elect one fake billionaire, Get a 100 real ones. Seeing all these wimps bend to Trump is just sickening.

In Ukraine a comedian became a President/Leader.
In the US a president became a comedian/Joker.
