Trading System Signals on 02-25-2026

The stock indexes moved up slowly all night and then surged at the open in the first 30 minutes. The rest of the day was much slower and maintained a holding pattern with a slow drift higher as the market turned its attention to NVDA earnings, released at 4:30 pm EST. Many day trade trend continuation strategies captured the move higher in the Nasdaq futures including Pulse in the Seven System Portfolio.

In the Nasdaq 100 futures, the open of the day session was less than 5 points from the low of the day session - which is rare!

It was an interesting day with Silver, Gold, and Natural Gas, as these futures markets were closed for nearly 2 hours during the regular trading day due to technical issues. It is further validation for not trading Gold and Silver right now. It is surprising, that with today's technology, the CME would have an intra-day outage for that length of time.
