The Tuesday before Thanksgiving 2020 - very thankful for a great days trading

Well.  We have just two days to go until Thanksgiving, and the trading activity is dying off now for sure.  The volumes were lower and that made trading a little harder of course.  No problems, we just trade the same way as always but are a little bit more cautious when it comes to stops.  Essentially we bank faster,

As always we
trade the first thirty minutes to hour, today we did the first 35 minutes and walked away with a clear 11 S&P points and 21 NQ.  Should have been a lot more .. but you will see in this video how even we make trading mistakes.   That said ... $550 on S&P and $420 on NQ isn't a bad haul for 35 minutes work.

At this time of the year we should all be very grateful we are traders.  There are people working all month for what we can make in a couple of days.  And its fun too.  #begratefulpeople
