Haven't been writing about this lately because...

 

I didn't know it when I wrote it last November but as it turns out it is the most important post I've ever made in my endless pursuit of simplicity in the market.

 

IS IT A "FOOL'S GAME"?

 

Today's SPY 284 Put up 250% plus on a $10K trade. 

 

I define a trending day as any time an options system day trade is up more than 100%, which has happened 25 days this year to date, 17% of trading days.

My SAR system flipped back to short this morning... not sure yet on the degree of a top going here, but it is possible an IT top is in... twt.
