I thought I posted earlier today but apparently I did not.

4680 target hit in #ES_F: Important to note - The 50dma held 8x this year, but 4 of those 8 it put one daily close below, then recaptured next day. This happened this week (Mon loss & Tues recover) In all 4 of those cases, it saw new ATHs within weeks. Bulls want to hold it now

Going into the cash open my average short is 4675, this making for an interesting end of the year lol!!  Always keep thinking of that Christmas Eve tank in 2018 down -2%.  Don't think that'll happen today but anything could happen.  I'm still thinking there's more up but we'll see.  I'm surprised option premium is neutral on both sides leaning more to the bullish side but we'll see what happens with a pullback!!

Closed QQQ CALLS & HEDGE NQ

That was a frenetic opening! 

 

May now buy QQQ MARCH PUTS

 

 

After 7 consecutive green days, a loss today.

 

Profits in NQ daytrading, QQQ CALLS, ES HEDGE LONG

 

Losses in SPY PUTS & NQ HEDGE SHORT

 

44 SPY PUTS

2 ES HEDGE LONG

 

38 QQQ CALLS

1 NQ HEDGE SHORT

 

Will hold SPY PUTS until next week, will add more on rallies; may liquidate all QQQ CALLS & NQ HEDGE SHORT on NQ rallies

 

CRUDE  nearing SHORT ZONE above 73.5, most likely will wait until next week

VXX just above 20, will buy CALLS below 20

 

 

 

Taking 105.5 points profit on this NQ hedge short

will reopen ... later? lower? depends

 

want to buy more QQQ calls on whay my friend 123SPX calls a RADICAL FILL!

 

 

Reopened NQ SHORT hedge 15799.5

18 MARCH QQQ CALLS

 

27 SPY PUTS

2 ES HEDGE LONG

 

One expects a normally quiet few days before December 25th but not in 2021....

 

Xmas rally started, finally, should continue for next few days but it is tough for the BULLS to sustain it for long

 

 

Closed NQ short  +105.5 points

Set alert to reopen above 15700

 

This was supposed to be the start of my R&R but can't stop trading NQ!

 

Leaving one NQ short @ 15692.5

---

 

Holding 30 FEB SPY PUTS, closed a few on Friday

2 ES HEDGE LONG

Could not resist buying a few QQQ MARCH CALLS in LT Portfolio, accumulating on Friday as markets swooned:  11 MARCH QQQ CALLS

 

Flat CRUDE, NAT GAS, VXX and everything else

Will set alerts on CRUDE & VXX to open new positions if my levels are reached.

I Will be resting & relaxing, enjoying the holidays, with a few posts, during next 2 weeks,

As I thought -- see below -- the Santa rally came after the drop and that's about it after the rapid move up

This has to be my best NQ daytrading week in 2021, a good finish this week even though I was not too interested on Sunday but 

a trader is always energized by active markets. 

Profits today in QQQ CALLS, 2 ES HEDGE LONG (big winner last few days!), NQ daytrading; losses in SPY PUTS and 1 NQ HEDGE SHORT

 

59 SPY PUTS

2 ES HEDGE LONG

 

7 QQQ PUTS 

 

Happy Holidays!  

 

 

Average short 4682 now!

Merry Christmas everyone, very slow here likely because of an arctic front freezing us in place here lol!!  Just adding yo my short at 4695, comfortable sitting and waiting.  I'm actually shocked that the market is moving  like this, I almost thought rationality was coming into play but I guess they want to do it all for this year lol!!  Call premiums screaming bullishness so don't think it can last too much longer even with no volume lol!!

My plan for 2 weeks of light trading and much more R&R has been derailed... but I still want to rest as much as possible

 

Closed 1 ES HEDGE LONG +203.5 points

Cannot leave 203.5 points on the table even as SPY PUTS are under the water and almost near drowned state. 

67 SPY PUTS

 

Holding 1 ES hedge long, will reopen 2nd one if I buy more PUTS above 478, or if ES drops by more than 0.5% from current ATH

 

Added 10 QQQ PUTS, now holding 15

Will add more above 405 and open a new NQ HEDGE LONG sometime today

 

Will start new thread later or tomorrow.
