USD Futures

USD 
The U.S. Dollar should have fallen like a rock after the Euro announcement, but it has held up like Joe Frazier. The price has stayed inside the channel and broke above the MA. Should test the top of the channel and then move higher. Hope this helps

OIL Futures

OIL
This is one of my favorites for day trading.This instrument trades very consistent. As I have posted on my blog, I am currently a day trader due to market conditions. I use 10 tick stops with 30 tick targets and it's working like an ATM machine. I wish I could send buy/sell alerts, but there just isn't enough time when day trading. Hopefully sometime soon this market will get off the crack and steroids, so I can swing trade again. It looks to me like price wants to test 103+ (see chart) and if or when it does, then price could retest 115. Hope this helps

Looks like gold wants to go higher. The price is holding well above 1700. Price should test 1775 and if that holds, then price will move higher. Your long entry will depend on how aggressive or conservative you are. I will wait for a pullback to the 1713 range. Hope this helps

APPLE

AAPL - One to keep your eye on. Interesting chart

MF Global debacle

Another confirmation that you need to be certifiable to hold a trade over night. This market is like no market I've ever seen. I feel like it's a waste of my time to look for trade setups (ie - euro, aud/jpy, 10 yr notes etc), so some news comes out over night and destroys it! I know news always trumps all technical analysis, but not with the  FREQUENCY the markets are dishing out currently...Basically I am *&%$^#@!?*% off!!!

Gold

If gold can hold 1700, should be a nice trade for a retest of 1754. See chart for support and swing high price. Hope this helps

This is the problem when the government intervenes. Another reason why it's difficult to hold anything over night.
