Nov 24 2008

Beautiful calm strong day. Not much of hectic action except last 10-15 minutes. Just one small stop at the beginning of day, the rest of trades worked like charm, and many for much more than scalps. Notably, GG for $1, QQQQ for 50 cents, etc. Nice to see normal action for a change. Got a whiff of what was coming early:

{10:09}  my impression of market action is, it wants to climb the wall of worry today. Barring news, feels like we are in for a nice upside move

... and stayed with it, catching second leg of the rally just in time:

{13:58}  feels like market gathering forces and probing ground for another powerful rally. One more pullback is likely before main push comes.

Worked out like a clockwork.
