Sorry, but this cycle-Charts are NONsense! Like a coin flip! Very bad instrument!

Thank you, Steve! Do you think the gaps will be filled soon or at least before Future-Expiration,  25th of June?

A question for Matt and especially Steve: Is it true that there is still an open futures gap on ES and NQ from April 22 to April 23 that hasn't been filled yet, two weeks later?
Thanks in advance for your answer!

Yes, indeed! And the YTD-Performance of the DAX is +15%! That´s huge! The SPX around -4%! That´s almost 20%-outperformance, that´s very, very unusual.

On Tuesday, March 18, there was a positive vote for a stimulus package of over 1 trillion euros. It can only be stopped tomorrow in the Federal Council, but that is unlikely. Nevertheless, it may have been buy the rumors sell the facts for the DAX!

Yesterday the DAX had a new all time high around: 23300 points! +3%!

Hi @mla127, can you explain more what the SHOULDER SEASON for natural gas means? Do you have a seasonal chart/graphic, where I can look at it? Thx.

You're right, Steve. Not the easiest political system here in germany!;-)

No clear majority.

Maybe 6-7 parties in the next German Bundestag!

It could all be difficult, but we will have to wait and see.

Hi Steve, thx for the charts! It´s crazy here in germany, the sentiment of the people is around 0! We have elections the next sunday! The put-call ratio in the stockmarket is very high! Could this be the catalyst for this crazy moves the last months? As well the german VIX, V1X is near the upper BB on daily timeframe! Crazy times! ;-)

Hi EdZ, is the BUY-Signal on BOIL, daily/weekly,  you mentioned on Tuesday, 28th January still there??? BOIL trading about 5% lower now.

Maybe the smaller indices can catch up in 2025 with a change of government like in the USA. We do not have such an issue with interest rates! More problems with cheap energy, because we quit buying cheap russian natural gas for the chemical industry and heating our buildings.

Yes, Steve, we have a lot of problems the last 3 years and on Trump-Election-Day the government-coalition of three parties quit. Despite the german DAX is near all-time high! The smaler idices like MDAX and SDAX are well below recent all-time-highs.

Thank you, Matt and and Steve, for the hard work all year! Merry Christmas to all, from Lower Bavaria in Germany! Greetings, Matthias.

Do you mean the gap from 16th of july this year at 13.26???

VIX gap on the lower side? I see ONLY 1 gap at 13.26 from the 16th of July open! Is this correct???

Top! Nice places! Have been there as well, except the island Malta! I am near from Munich. It will definitely be a wonderful trip! Take care and good luck.
