This futures trading room focusses on high leverage Overnight Trading with futures:
“Just open the trade at the close and, if not stopped, close it at the open.”
One of the main advantages of the Nightly Patterns trading style is that it gives traders the opportunity to trade at a specific time, avoiding constant market screening. Furthermore, it allows traders to keep their money in cash during the day, making it possible to add Overnight Trading to other Intraday Trading strategies. Its unique time horizon makes this trading style completely uncorrelated to most other strategies, leading to superior portfolio diversification.

MY VISITORS GLOBE – WHERE DO TRADERS COME FROM?
Where are the intraday stock market edges? When should a trader be long or short?
Well, those aren’t easy questions. Intraday seasonality does exist. You can have a look at the previous quarter of an hour here.
Now, I’m writing down a simpler approach: I’m splitting the the stock market session in 15 minutes different periods and see what’s happening with them. I have data back to 28 September 2009: last 10 years of data exactly. Intraday data are very difficult to handle, that’s why I’m focusing only on the last 10 years.
I’m backtesting the ES future market.
Let’s have a look at this quarter: 11:00 – 11:15 AM EST.
The equity curve below shows a slightly bullish edge. Equity rises steadily at the beginning and then it goes down and up, up and down. This isn’t the idea setup for me.
If you had traded all those quarters of an hour at 11:00 AM EST blindly, going through wild moves, you would have earned about 6% going long on ES futures contract, during the last 10 years.
I’ll be back soon with another intraday seasonality study,
