Hey Matt, for the index futures KISS systems, does the '% of winning trades' metric tend to get better as the time frames get shorter? I think 78min tends to be the shortest time frame you publish, is that the best %?

Do or die? Up up and away, or down in a big  C wave? What’s your vote?

AMGN daily  had a nice set up b4 earnings.   i own a couple of shares.     

Held secondary levels  and attacked those highs 

I have all these automated futures systems with the KISS system, and tons of these were long, on my NQ futures all 5 were long, and 3 of them went long last night, 138 min, 276 min, 345 min. the other time frames were already long. 

then 4 out of 6 of my ES systems were long, 4 of my YM systems were long. 

not gonna lie, was slightly nervous holding all those contracts on the numbers, but obviously worked out

10 Y Yields and USD spike down 

not just the index futures like ES and NQ, but also gold, on this image gold is on the left, MES on the right

VIX smash 

Nonfarm Payrolls (Apr) +175K vs +238K Est.

USA Average Hourly Earnings (MoM) For April 0.2% Vs 0.3% Est; 0.3% Prior

USA Unemployment Rate For April 3.9% Vs 3.8% Est.; 3.8% Prior

Here's how things look heading into this morning's jobs report per 

 consensus: High estimate +280k Low estimate +145k Average +234.3k Whisper number (chart) +243.5k

$VIX - Chart Link - shows remaining gap below 

$IWM possible, but MACD no divergence, so prolly break up.  Same pattern as was on daily???   https://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=_IWM&p=78&yr=0&mn=2&dy=0&id=p62523470022&a=1669209784&listNum=4

Wow, the gap is actually much larger from the perspective of the volume profile...

KR hmmmm

In the Navy we joke about the Filipino mafia running HR (actually called the personnel dept...but same same). Sounds like Boeing has the Gambino family running their HR. Filipinos are the best people on the planet, but I bet the Gambinos are a hell of a lot more efficient! 

HD weekly, longer term look shows it came down into the prior breakout resistance
