Distribution in recent days, seems to be gaining momentum, squeezing some, but is this market behavior leading to a shallow pullback or a CRASH?

The distribution is from cashing in long term (holding 1 year+) and shifting the money into DJI stocks for dividends.

Lots of people are cashing in 40-50-60-70% long term capital gains from March-April-May of 2020. Me among them.

But I am not rushing into any other stock funds. A mini-crash would be a better entry point sometime before Halloween.

That was a fantastic week of trading, 3 consecutive big ones. due for a low profit or loss week but will try hard to prevent that

That was a punishing NQ short squeeze from early morning  trading, caught about 60% of that rally. 

Will build a large SPY PUTS position, SEP; will take profits in ES HEDGE LONG during cash session while adding extra lot to NQ LONG daytrades, will take profit in INDA  & VOO and then reopen lower; 

Basically, I am taking profits and hedging PUTS partially while focus on NQ DAYTRADES

 

200 VOO

700 INDA

1 ES HEDGE LONG 4168.75

41 SPY PUTS

Looking at the VXX OPTION CHAIN
30 to 35 Strike
May buy CALLS at least 2 months away
Need to add more hedge long if buying VXX CALLS

One more 50 plus NQ swing, up or down, may help me reach 1K NQ points profit today. Amazing NQ intra day market behavior.
