At 2563 as I posted, actually got them lower on the over shoot on the way up. Exited at 2582 as I expect that to cap today. They were weeklies so big swing. Waiting now to target the short from 2590 ish next week.

well I did something right as I announced before, rut cycles looked like low up to TXGV,

 

I doubled up 401k contrib for the past two cycles, I will do one more end of month and see

 

what cycles look like from there. RUT cycles can really work for overall market breadth even

 

if not rigged indexes, but mkt can right translate the turn longer than I can stand but still hit the low

 

time about right.

weekly rut cycle may still be weak for 2-3 weeks so I hold back new buys will let 401k add end of month

and Dec 15.

litecoin is moving through a gann fan process, maybe this one will work with an

impulsive pattern if not one more backtest should be all.

I feel like this pattern ppt is super bullish

Agreed Achartist,

 

Missed a cycle date,  Will be getting long for a 3 day trade IWM on the open target 150.17 Min. by Wendsday...   See the down wave starting the following week.

 

But do expect a .45 drop on the open to suck final bears in.

 

FWIW my targets for spx projection is 2599.10 in the same period.
