$FXI

Been keeping an eye on $FXI lately. It's pushing up against what looks like a pretty significant resistance level around the 36.10-36.20 area. We saw it hit 36.12 today and pull back a bit. This region has been a ceiling a few times over the past couple of months, so it's not exactly surprising.

My take is if it can chew through and close decisively above 36.20 on daily, then we could see a push towards 37.50-38.00 without too much trouble. But for now, I'm just watching. The risk to that bullish scenario, of course, is a clear rejection here. If it fails to break through and starts closing below today's low of 35.865, then a retest of 35.00, or even the 34.50 support, isn't out of the question. Not trying to predict anything, just laying out what I'm looking for either way.

Hey everyone,

I've been dipping my toes into Asian markets lately, mostly through ETFs like $AAXJ and $FXI, trying to get a feel for the broader trends without getting bogged down in individual stock analysis just yet. One thing I'm still figuring out is how you all manage the overnight risk, especially with the time zone differences. I'm based in EST, so by the time I wake up, a lot of the price action has already happened. I try to set stop losses, but sometimes the gap on open can be pretty significant, leading to slippage that's more than I'd ideally like.

Are there any specific strategies or mental models you use for position sizing or hedging when holding these overnight? I'm curious if I should be adjusting my risk per trade more aggressively for these compared to, say, a US-based equity.
