I'd say this market was about as thin as it gets...

This market is going higher, it has unfinished business to the upside. There will be a shakeout either tomorrow or Monday. I have lower odds of it happening tomorrow. If it doesnt happen tomorrow we will get another small range day on Friday.

VIX not dropping, bonds working higher all day long... You could pretty much smell that last hour coming...

Looks like it is going to be yet another small change day on The Naz McClellan backed right into the zero line from underneath.

Maybe tomorrow, we get the trend day Down

Well how did you trade this? Was anyone carrying short positions from yesterday? Would you buy the gap down? My analysis is done on the Rut so my trade strategy was probably different then most calling for a drop. Im pretty sure someone tried a long play with calls this morning.

Went short heavy at 2840, added a little bit of hedging out to next Wed. and month end at 86. Expecting another big gap down Monday

but hedged just in case I'm wrong. Looking for 2760-2740 on this.

It's all about AAPL here this afternoon...

 

Busted a key level at 207.50 a little bit ago. If it does not reclaim it by the close, could get very ugly if bulls decide to bail on that one on a Friday afternoon....
