Same here! After NVDA EARNINGS I AM GONE!
Return next week, will monitor markets, and reports etc, PCE etc

Think I'm in holiday mode lol!!  Barely paid attention yesterday and today did go long on the Ndx for a 50 point profit but most importantly I added to my short to even it out at 5600.  Market seems to be in holiday mode to but remains incredibly overbought and bullish.  Everyone is waiting for Nivideas earnings tomorrow which in my view is a massive mistake putting an entire market on one stock, its rare these things work out in the end so we'll see how it goes in the end.....

"As Nvidia awaited, Treasuries absorb new deluge
Equity options traders are expecting Nvidia's report to spark a more than $300 billion swing in its shares over the day ahead. Pricing anticipates a stock move of almost 10% on Thursday - larger than the expected move ahead of any Nvidia report over the last three years.

And it's a big earnings day more broadly for Big Tech - with Salesforce also reporting and CrowdStrike updating following a July flub that sparked a worldwide computer outage.

Besides NVDA, CROWDSTRIKE & SALESFORCE. Would be away from tonight until next week but will place a few PUT & CALL LIMIT ORDERS.
"Key developments that should provide more direction to U.S. markets later on Wednesday:
Federal Reserve Board Governor Christopher Waller in India and Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic speaks
US corporate earnings: Nvidia, Salesforce, CrowdStrike, HP, NetApp, JM Smucker, Cooper Companies, Bath & Body Works
US Treasury sells $70 billion of 5-year notes, sells two-year FRNs

A ST OR VST MARKET TOP is in place....
Unless ... market makes new weekly high.
Yeah, that is not too useful but topping is a process except in a few rare cases.
