Yet again I have fallen for a stop run as the advance was reversed right away with me being taken out of 50% of my position. I had PROMISED myself to not hold any hard stops during overnight hours as I had been a vicitim of such moves many times before - with the strong moves of the past week I had decided to put at least a partial hard stop in case we get a runnaway GAP for the morning cash hours. Nothing you can do about it ...
Lets see what the rest of the morning brings for all of us. It would not surprise me to see this run another 25 points on the upside from here before we finally start a retracement of more then 5 points.
108.06 on SPY - wow just wow ...
ReplyDeleteit is easy trade on the long side. Buy between 15 and 50 sma and stop below 50 sma. For the last few days spx cash has not gone below 50 sma.
ReplyDeletei do not have guts to go long at this level. staying on the side line. Thanks to stop loss I picked up couple of points yesterday.
It is right at 50 sma at 1068.8. let us see what happens. if it bounces. or goes to 1063
ReplyDeleteyeap ... I am short still ... hoping to remain short =)
ReplyDeleteLooks like on 5 min 5o sma is now acting as resistance. let us see if it pans out. this may be the start of the MOVE.
ReplyDeletemove to 1067-1066 should confirm few points to south.
ReplyDeleteI am short now with the tight stop. let us see how far does it take us.
