Rainy Tuesday, Moon in Aries and House 9

General notes
I was checking into some of my astro charts (notably the transits over birth chart) and I sort of get a relief in realizing that I shall not push to hard now, as far as trading concerned. Still, I keep the right to make educative trades obviously.
A new watchlist of mine has seen the light just recently, namely the Tuto on High Volume one. There I have sorted the items that are usually trading on high daily option volumes and are in one of my other watchlists.

Watchlist additions and trade candidates
PCAR - Paccar (commercial trucks & vehicles)
TTC-A long: ISE, PCU
GAPH Vol: MTW

Trade session notes
I have the gut feeling of falling or trading markets today, thus maybe the Tuto will be in play. If international stock markets will fall then I will opt for revising my watchlist for possible Tuto Trades - obviously using my brand new TuTo watchlist.
2 hours before the EST Markets going live this was the standing for majors int'l markets:
Nikkei...17163.20...+153.65...+0.9%,
Hang Seng...19356.90...+90.16...+0.5%,
FTSE
- 6182.60...-6.80...-0.1%,
DAX
...6651.17...-20.24...-0.3%
Thus, will have to wait for the bell to ring first, and then quickly analyse!
11:48AM ET - The system (new watchlist only with optionable 'blue chips' then sorted to possible short and long TuTo trades) is working fine but no sign of possible deal.
1:14PM ET - No possible trades for me today. I call it a day now...
