2011 Review

Along the currency futures the Pound provided the best up and down moves for my trade setup to buy above a day that closed above the prior two days / to go short below a day that closed below the prior two days:
Crude Oil provided good moves at the beginning of each month:
S+P moved like the Dow so the cyclical sell in February/March, buy in April and sell end of July
as well as the year end rally starting in October played out well:


The FDAX pretty much the same as the US indices however the heavy drop in March below the opening price of the year indicated that the european markets are weaker in 2011, because of the EURO crisis this trend might continue in 2012.
Gold had the best trends, better than bonds as the short moves also provided trades with high risk reward:

FDAX, S+P and Crude Oil Intraday Setups (30 Min Bar Breakout) where also very profitable, as well as breakouts above prior days high on FDAX:
