daytradr V6.1 – With Market Intelligence. Maintenance Patch.

In this version, we made the following changes:

• Improved the Market Intelligence news selection – because apparently corn traders aren’t interested in recipes using corn.
• Fixed some invalidation issues which was causing delays in screen artifacts being updated (including order fills)
• Temporarily switched off GPU usage – it gave people freezes, especially on VMs. We’ve had a look at some coding techniques that allow us to detect the GPU is compatible or not but to be honest – it looks unnecessarily complex and I have little faith in it.
• Fixed MAE/MFE (not for IB – that’s down to a data restriction)

As usual, you can download the latest version here: https://members.jigsawtrading.com/daytradr/

For those that didn’t use Market Intelligence yet – see below:

This isn’t just information – it’s interpretation. Starting at the Japan open, then before London open and several times before the US RTH opens, we’ll give you insights into what’s happening in the markets.

This is “pre-market prep” – the goal is NOT to change the way you trade, but to give you a deeper understanding of the markets you trade and to not have events derail your trading because you weren’t aware of them.

• What happened overnight in terms of moves and what events caused those moves:
• Recent news for that market, along with a rating of how important it is as well as it’s likely impact on the market. I say likely – because we aren’t responsible for keeping the markets sane. Think “how would this normally impact the market”
• The scheduled events show both recurring events and one of events like such as Fed speakers, for each event it gives you a breakdown of how it could impact the markets.
• Risk calendar is a closer look at scheduled events, but just the events are likely to impact your market and why. 
• We give you institutional flow information – such as: 
  • Recent data shows notable outflows from major ETFs, including $1.71 billion from SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY) for the week ending November 14, pointing to institutional caution and potential rotations away from broad equity exposure.
  • Overall sentiment for S&P 500 appears Defensive.

• Action plan for the day – putting it all together and walking you through the key events that are likely to impact that market, for example:

• • As the session opens, monitor for initial reactions to any lingering overnight sentiment from tariff concerns or AI uncertainties. At 20:30, the Chicago Fed National Activity Index releases, potentially influencing growth perceptions and correlated yields. Follow with 21:45 ECB President Lagarde Speech, which could spark volatility in currency pairs and safe-haven flows impacting S&P 500

Not only is this a great start to your day, over time, you’ll start to get to know your market really well, in terms of what typically effects it. Even if you are a technical trader, this will be extremely valuable in terms of giving you an “adverse event safety net”. 

We are kicking off with:

• S&P500 (ES)
• NASDAQ 100 (NQ)
• Gold (GC)
• 10 Year Treasuries (ZN)
• Euro (6E)
• Corn (ZC)
• WTI Crude (CL)

We’ll be adding more information and more markets – and that’s really down to what you all need, hence we started off with a good blend. For more information – see our ‘Market Intelligence Page”

Oh yeah – it’ll save you 1-2 hours of work a day too!!!
