CFD, which we can't trade here in U.S., are a whole nother world. Neither cash Dow index or futures has reached 23590 yet.
Carpe diem: Intraday tactics for Dax and Dow

Dow 1000am and 1030am bars highs penetrated but did not close above prior levels. Another thing I am looking at longer term is the $TRAN DJ Transports made a 2 day low earlier which is no biggie. But not very far below - 67 pts approx currently - is ...

Chips and oil services doing their thing. But not the transports and banks have some selling.

Yup but I'll be watching the 1000am and 1030am bar closings for headsup.

Agree it is a top - for the moment anyway. But a two year top, nope not even one. A little less than a one on a monthly close basis.

Do you folks also realize forex charts are bid change and not actual trade prices changing?

Oh come on 1 minute lol. Don't be silly. 1 minute is 99% noise. Use it to enter a trade with a setup found on a 5 min 30 minute or 1 hour chart now you're talking. But a gaaaap. No way.

Did you see this from an earlier post: "Gaps only happen on the week's open and ..." Which are present on daily and of course weekly charts. They are real. 2 pip gaps on a 5 min chart are mirages.

One broker feed differs from another. And so on. No gaps on my chart btw. If it happens much ... it is purely coincidental.

Also 114.241 is 61.8% retracement of down move from Friday's high to today's gap down open, but I don't expect much of a new down move tonight. All major yen pairs are moving higher.

What happened today happens every NFP Friday. Price trends up / down or range bound into the announcement. Then the reaction and counter reaction. "They" do it all the time. Also every trade split-second or not is a guess at best.

So what are you saying that of course no one could react to the drop - if they didn't already. I think we all agree to that. But what was stopping someone going short seconds or minutes before the break. And then what was stopping someone from going ...

Depends on the broker I guess. 5 second chart showing around 10 seconds on bottom. Don't believe that I got a 20 tick chart of individual trades showing the same.
