Post turkey hangover sees markets drop - we make $2k live - 26th Nov 2021

Crazy half day on the markets - but we make $2k in our live trading session

This is a short blog because its late on Saturday and its a holiday weekend.  Yesterday was Black Friday and as well as sales being crazy, the market was also.  The VIX was elevated to 25 just before open, and we weren't expecting to get many trades away.  But it turned out so differently.  The markets really ran for us and delivered some absolutely gorgeous trades in the first thirty minutes, taking or daily gain to over $230 on micros and $2300 on minis.  An interesting day to trade for sure.  Fun and profitable.  Certainly better than another load of turkey sandwiches ....
