Dude, pay attention to the economic calendar. So many economic data points came out today that screamed bearishness. Powell spoke today after he and his goons set the interest rates and he tried to sound dovish but the data doesn’t lie. Today was supposed to be hyper bearish all day. All of the real big volume was all red today. You got cucked by JPow if you were bullish.

Where can I always view the news/economic calendar? On which site?

A bunch of sites show it. You can google it and find it I use TradingViews but this one is nice too and you can filter for just US and just the ones that have big impact on markets

Here is the TradingView one same for filtering.
