The financial markets are cycling between news event trading and noise right now, which is a challenging cycle. The stock indexes gapped down on Sunday night based on the tariff news. Bitcoin dropped and rallied back above 100K. The indexes rallied back and the net loss by the end of the day represents a normal down day by the close. The precious metals were back and forth.
Lean Hogs went limit down rebounded and then moved limit down again and traded in a wide range. Lean Hogs Trender shorted near the lows and was stopped out on the rebound. (sometimes strategies sell at the low and buy at the high just as the market is reversing). Lean Hogs are one of the most boring markets to trade but the ranges have expanded right now. As an individual strategy, Lean Hogs Trender is one to consider based on a drawdown entry alert as a single strategy system. This strategy does hold positions overnight.
Lean Hogs is potentially a more tradeable market right now. You have to know where the limit moves are though.
