Appreciate the comments. 2008 seems so long ago, but some emerging market currency turmoil does make it seem much more recent. Good to hear you are also using a keyboard. FYI the risk methods I think you were referring to is going to be new technology for our software (not keyboard). Just didn't discuss our software yesterday as trying to stay on topic. Have a good fed day...
I thought it was good, I wasn't trying to be negative in my previous post, It's just when I hear "trade the news" I get skeptical. Turns out he is NOT some crackpot chasing the market around and in fact has good information to share.
Thanks BM and KeyboardTrader.
I just watched it and enjoyed it a lot. I was particularly interested in the chart section, when Adam went through the multi-day sequence of news events. I like to trade the NFP and FOMC, but I've always tended to view them pretty much in isolation, mapping out weekly and monthly S/R and then focusing on order flow after the release. Thinking more about participants positioning themselves over multiple days and events makes a lot of sense.
I know I am a little late but great webinar. I really enjoyed it.
Quick question out there for anyone. Adam mentioned the benefits of a squawk box. Does anyone use a squawk box that trades the S&P E-minis? I thought the squawk box is comments on the S &P Pit in NY? How useful is that if you're trading the E-minis especially if you trading on very short time frames/scalping?
