November is Off To A Good Start
11/3/2025
Today was the first trading day of November and the cash session opened at a new all-time high. And we’ve seen similar price action quite a few times recently. The market gaps up and the first impulse move is down.
The system gave an early Short Alert that hit both Targets. Check out the Alert Software screenshot:
(read the System notes from the bottom up)
The Short Alert fired off just 8-minutes after the cash open and filled quickly. Target 1 got hit just 4-minutes later which is indicative of the “momentum” of the down move. As you can see the Trailing Stop tightened prior to T1 getting hit and then tightened a couple more times before Target 2 got hit.
45-minutes into the session a 2 Contract trader was “done for the day” after T2 was hit. There was actually an additional 15+ points of “traction” past Target 2 before price rebounded and there are several different ways one could have played this Alert trading more than 2 Contracts.
The distance to the Targets was fairly significant too.
Target 1 was +7.50 points
Target 2 was +25.25 points
Total trading 2 Contracts +32.75 points
I’d say that’s a pretty good way to start off the new month.
November – Expecting Good Price Action
I mention seasonality quite a bit heading into a new month but every year turns out differently – kind of like the weather.
I’ve lived in the same place in Florida for the past 25 years and some years it’s freezing in December and other years it’s 80 degrees and you can walk on the beach. So seasonality only goes so far and it’s the same with the market. As we head into November all the indexes are at all-time highs and there’s a lot of strange things going on. The news is having a big impact on the markets from day to day and we’re all aware of all the crazy news and things pending right now.
November has traditionally been a good month for trading with lots of participation and action right up until Thanksgiving weekend where everyone gets in Holiday mode. But even after that I expect to see plenty of good trading conditions because there’s so much going on in the world and news to move the markets. While we might see some dull session here and there, I expect a lot of volatility as we start the new month.
As we get into November I’ll be using this page to post commentary, notes and charts relating to the ES / MES Momentum System, our trading strategy and whatever else comes to mind. This “notes section” of the website isn’t intended to be a daily recap, but usually gets updated with new material every couple / few days. It’s a good way for me to be able to post educational material and examples of how the Momentum System handles different market sessions.
