Chart of the Day: S&P 500 E-mini Futures
Don’t say no, go with the flow. Professional traders don’t discuss why things happen, they just trade trend and volume and protect themselves against their own convictions. As pointed out by Coach Mark yesterday, “Do you know who else likes to recycle? The mainstream financial media.”. They keep doing the same thing over and over again, trying to find reasonable explanations on why the markets are down or up. Now the S&P 500 broke the resistance. We trade the breakout, they come with lame excuses.
