SPX 1253.5 is the bull-bear line for today. I am still holding my longs from SPX 1265 with a Stop and reverse to short at 1253.5. 

 

This is tiring. Too much of overlapping moves. Time for a directional move.

Sadly... sideways is a directional move...

Agree  ... also been especially tricky intraday last week lots of fast V's intraday and partial signal/whipsaws ,I looks for shorter timeframe setups but stop setting was really tough last week.

feels like the game of 'get them off the bus' before a trending move via tiring/boring short term traders.

Question everything, especially what you believe you know. The foundation of science is questioning the data, not trusting the data. I only trust fully falsified, non vested interest 'data', which is extremely rare in our world of paid framing narratives 'psy ops'.

DXY wound up about as tight as it gets here....see if starts moving pretty soon.....

EXACTLY !

 

Not to mention that the sentiment gets neutralized. Remember a couple of days back how the bulls and bears were in a verbal war on this board. Now all of a sudden the board has become mum. That's the setup for big moves.

 

My best trades come after these boring/frustrating days.I don't expect it to be different this time.

2153.5, 2165. Sorry for the typo.

Understandable, your subconscious caused you to write the correct numbers for where the SPX should be trading...

I actually had a passable day today. Snagged 5 for the service.

 

What I don't like, however, is that I had to move away from standard discipline in order to do it. I KNOW the market is trying to train us to settle for less, right before a big move.
