Ponavadi gre Nasdaq100 po zahvalnih praznikih v Ameriki gor neglede na dogajanje, ampak vedno je na prvem mestu disciplina in posluh kaj naj trg sporoča.

Text after session close or next day in the morning.

Nasdaq opened higher and consolidated until the start of the European session, when it experienced a notable drop just before the open. However, within an hour, the move faded completely — on low volume — and the price not only recovered but broke above the daily high, followed by a strong rejection. About 25 minutes later, the price fell by 0.8% and tested the daily low within the next hour. 

Roughly an hour before the U.S. open, Nasdaq once again tested the daily high and gained new momentum as the U.S. market opened, but the move lacked real strength. Despite this, the price continued to rise slowly and steadily, increasing by about 1.4% from the daily high over the next two hours, again without significant volume. It was a steady climb with textbook examples of consolidation. 

Two hours before the session close, the market transitioned into a sideways phase, which remained unchanged until the next European open. 

Gold and crude oil both recovered nicely a few hours before the EU open, showing strong upward momentum. However, only crude displayed noticeable volume — gold, like Nasdaq, seemed to move mainly due to retail activity rather than participation from major players. 

I decided to skip most of the day since I didn’t see any truly solid opportunities. I opened only one good scalp position on crude oil and closed it fairly quickly with a profit. A good day overall, despite the slow market behavior.
