Ive completely missed this week so far myself, It appears most have either closed out shorts or are looking to go long.

Yes I am short. I think there might be a consolidation at some point eod and tomorrow. I prefer that scenario because that will lead to more selling earlier next week.

Don't look at it as missing this week. Look for the next opportunity.

Swing short - No i covered yesterday and got stopped out today on my next attempt.

 

Daytrades - I am in my third short for the day in progress. VIX above 20, you should focus on day trades. 

 

This is just the beginning of the next leg of the IT leg down. There will be lot of opportunities along the way.

You have to trade 1-min on short-side only to make money in this market.

Have the in-the-money weekly 272 SPY put as per my usual day trade.

This is the place where you can see some hellacious snap back rallies. A gap down tomorrow is a good place.

This looks the wave C started with the ABC down from the end of Jan.  It's going to re-test the low.  It's the institutional investors who are dumping late in the day.  I think ater 2 PM it's the time again for them to dump.  It looks going to be a biggest down day in a while.............
