After a big drop yesterday the market is calm down a bit but I fill it is the quiet before the storm. It is 30 minutes before the opening in US and you can feel that everyone is waiting to see how the market in the states react to the Dubai news.
That’s why I had a quick trade today on Rio Tinto and run a way after a quick profit. I know bought it at 3040 and sold it on 3060. I know it could easliy end the day around 3200 but on the other side it can finish around 2900. Yes I can use a stop loss but if I need to carry the trade to next week the stop loss could worth nothing if the market opens sharply lower.
It is the same with oil and EUO/USD… I am waiting to see. No mater what I won’t trade in the first half hour. If by then I will see a sharp move I may jump on the train (hopefully it would not be too late!)
