who still think the trend is up ? Took 11 points profit on 1/3 position. Will hold the rest 2/3 for bigger gains.

Good luck with the trade.

1297 will be gone by the EOD IMO.


Edit: Sorry I mean't 1307 will be gone by EOD (not 1297). SPX 1305 is huge support. I want to wait and watch as to what happens there.

I posted this on the weekend in RD's thread on the II Bull/Bear Spread which was unusually high last week:

I see this as a legitimate short-term concern that could lead to a short, sharp pullback or some choppy action for a couple of weeks - but certainly not worse than November's pullback at worst.

The market looks too healthy right now for anything more than that on the downside.


Still with that view, overall.

who still think the trend is up ?

The trend remains up on the daily, weekly, and monthly time periods - what time frame are you looking at...15 minute?

Hourly and Daily.

Maybe on the hourly (oh so slightly), but I don't see a top beneath a top on the daily. What is your definition of a trend?
