    160628 EoD

    We had RTH buying, followed by a 2th night of overnight buying.

    Overnight buying was the norm till 2015 - lets see how it develops now.

    We had some buying RTH.

    Overnight-odds point to some weakness till the next RTH.

    I am really surprised by the type of buying today.
    It is concentrated on the main ETFs, as if the BOJ had decided to drop the Yen and forced Japanese pension funds to indiscriminately buy US assets.

    Peter's work tells us to short at around 15:30 today and then buy the open tomorrow.
    I believe that thousands of traders will do the same. This means that the down-move will occur earlier.
    But for now, everything is pushing higher, forcing shorts out of the water.

    TY Pascal,

    but if you have a good reason to be long - stay long and add longs during the potential overnight pullback :).
    ( ... trading the futures )

    (I know I contradict myself a little, but I caught the leg up early during the Europe session.)

    One technical argument for this BO (breakout) and volatility increase (but not the direction) is:
    Yesterday was a NR7 day + IB. (Narrowest range in 7 days + Inside bar/day)

    I have no idea how tomorrow will look like, but my bias is long and I hope we close today near the high of day.

    No trend shift. RTH buying continues.

    Here is an update that shows the session times I picked.
    All times are in Chicago times.

    I hope the reader does not feel spammed. But this is a work in progress.

    My main purpose doing this, is to better understand when to hold-on to overnight runners and if & when not to.
    Pascal's idea to use this for a more macro-view via monitoring a trend shift makes also sense to me (see the discussion below)
