There is no opportunity here. Basically, Trump has conditioned the market such that

nobody is willing to sell anymore, in anticipation of further gains down the road.

Also few are willing to buy as there are virtually no dips big enough to attract volume.

This is not a good trading environment, if you are buying options, count your money gone,

sellers will do ok.

 

I am moving my trading to gold miners and overseas ETFs until something changes, which will probably be months from now.

Trump has nothing to do with where markets are pointing to. And by the way the American financial system wanted the other one.....the nice, good looking, very...very...very...very...smart...other one.

You're buying overseas ETFs?  Those will be the 1st to fall when crap hits the fan.  US stocks are still strong.  I think EEM is ready to fall.

Not sure what market you are looking at but the market went up 700 points in the days after the election...

I trade Bull and Bear funds, direction doesn't matter to me. US stock indexes are not strong, they are stagnant, trading like VIX is at 1.

I am not patient enough to stare at a screen all day, day after day watching .25% moves waiting for a 1%. I have to be involved with 

issues that move 1% for options and 5-15% for ETFs.
