I just closed out up chump change - it fell out of my timing parameters...  Too little return vs time on the table... If it starts to move I will look at it again.

 

 

Here's what I am trading today - Switch from > wedge to broadening top <

 

 

I just put in a trade at 5330 here Nasdaq short, my risk is easily defined as a punch over it...

 

And the target is down at support 5275 - we'll see if it works...

Great idea, Nav.

Will go short ES . No sell signal yet. I trade 60 min chart. Personal settings. 

I took 8 points today on the long side.

Sold DUST at 45.37.  I will look to re-enter when GDX fills the gap at 25 and change.

FWIW, I've been ignoring an hourly Sell since 10:30 this morning, mostly because of the Options Oscillator and FL/FS Buy combo. That and a lot of stuff went negative last night (i.e. Buy your sells and Sell your buys).

 

Maybe at resistance. Maybe.

you do that, keep trading and I take a few weeks off. Only one swing trade and I'm already done for this month.

My STOP for this trade is 2158.

 

If SPX does not close above 2165 by market close,  i will exit this long position.

Still holding and still  same set of exits apply.  We either need to accelerate down from this point on or develop some kind of intraday divergences to launch another leg up.  With that being said, I am amazed how much they have this market pegged at ES 2155.
