    Yes, @golden6 everything going ok here.  Have been out mowing wet grass again.  Good you joined Peejay in the early session.  I think Rastus and Gurnz are early birds too.   Normally I would just watch the ES futures, but the impact of the Treasury yields put the futures out of sync lately.   The ES futures did drop below the 3934.25 base overnight but that was before the yields went up near our cash open.  Anyway, that overnight ES drop correlated with the drop in the XJO. But tonight, they are not as in sync. Watching the XSO here and that is a stomach churn.  Last night, most were short from the open at 18:00 EDT about an hour before the ASX cash open.  Generally, assume that if overnight positioning is too one sided (as it was last night) the serious early cash session participants can threaten their positions and they tend to peel out, the stubborn traders last -- you will see the short covering (or selling if they are too long) end in a crescendo sometimes.  Was trading NQ futures again, and that requires wider berth for stops and a strong stomach for heat (temporary loss).  Like a flea on speed, it jumps around.  Hi @peejayhercules, I will try the snipping tool too.  Trying to fix things in three minutes…well, you know about this already.
