Major Futures Markets Day Trading Strategies

Crude 60-Minute

Crude Oil has pushed down to test the wedge lows and is pushing right back up again off of those lows. I am looking to hop on with the buyers to push price higher back to the minor supply above from 104.07 - 104.20 as well as targeting a larger move up to supply from 104.70 - 104.99 and the wedge highs above that. If we do fall lower we can look for shorts to the BMT magnet at 103.04.

Automated Trading Strategy Review - E-Mini Russell Futures

Russell Auto Trader

The Russell has been quite trendy this past week giving us some solid moves but we have recently moved into more of a consolidation period where we are seeing more sideways action. The first trade of the week was a HUGE winner bringing early profits to the table and allowing us to sit back and relax for the rest of the week in the choppy price action! We had the TREND Auto Trader bank us a gorgeous $2,580 this past week overall!

Crude Oil VIP Chart

Crude Oil opened higher this morning in the US, with the situation developing in Ukraine being the main reason for the buyers keeping this price-action moving higher.

Later in the session we heard from the Inventory Report, which came out VERY bearish (10M vs. 1M) and price tumbled off those highs and almost gave back all of the gains from earlier this week.

We can see the PLOD at 102.94 was never tested, and we closed today well off the lows, suggesting that this drop this afternoon was likely fueled by profit-taking so we will be looking for buying opportunities this evening and into tomorrow.

Wave Trading Gold Futures; SchoolOfTrade.com

In today's video we have Gold Futures pushing down aggressively below the previous days levels and staying strongly below the cloud and BMT's. Once we had the buyers attempt to push price higher, they quickly failed right back down for a gorgeous 123 reversal pattern into a WAVE Pattern Short for us to trade on allowing us to bank a solid $460 profit in just a few minutes!

Crude 60-Minute

Crude Oil has caught a nice block of buying to push price up to break the previous highs but we have now ran into the wedge highs from the previous swings. We appear to be respecting these highs so I will be looking to hop on the sell side to drop price lower back to the wedge lows and the demand area from 103.59 - 103.43. If we do break higher we would need to get above the wedge highs before looking to buy with conviction.

Crude 60-Minute

Crude Oil has pushed and rejected out of supply at the highs from 104.24 - 104.75. This rejection lower has a tight trend channel coming back lower for a bit of profit taking. I am looking to sell with this minor trend channel down to demand at 102.71 - 102.37 and the BMT under that at 102.30 before we start looking right back to the upside to revisit the previous highs and wedge highs at 104.50's or so.

Automated Trading Strategy Review - Gold Futures

Gold Auto Trader

Gold has been overall bullish over the past week making shallow new highs pretty much every day. This morning we have a monster sell off on HUGE aggression. This type of breakout market are what the TREND Auto Trader LOVES to see but with the size of the ranges it kept us out of some trades as the risk was too high. We were still able to bank a solid $400 this past week!

Crude 60-Minute

Crude Oil is currently testing a fresh wedge low and bouncing off of it back up. I am looking to hop on with these buyers back up to supply starting at 104.24 - 104.75 with the previous highs in the mix at 104.55. If we do push lower again we have the demand zone from 103.36 - 103.10 that will still be acting as support back to the highs once more.
