It's always hard to believe low tick buys...but I am long from 1542.50..took half off at 48.50... stop on rest still at 40.75...but looking to add back long at some point...probably on a 10 min buy signal.....if not stopped out before hand.

No it's not a daytrade. I am expecting much higher prices and it's a multi-day trade. Consider this a first probe. If it fails, i will try again. I am expecting SLINGSHOT PART II with this trade.


I also bought some IWM calls with this, around 83.40 area.

NAV, are you seeing the breath turning back up from here? Why did you buy IWM options?

Kisa,

Price has to turn before breadth turns. So to answer your question, i have no idea whether breadth is going to turn today or not. Are we going to have a trend day on teh downside ? -possibly. But i am a price momentum trader, so everything else is secondary to me. I have seen rallies out of very negative breadth conditions. I could have asked the same question to myself during those rallies and have entirely missed them. I am just following my system. If it fails, there's another trade.

I think you have to see the remarkable divergences below.... :rolleyes:

The first attempt to break down the zero line (MACD) usually produces a strong bounce (dead cat)....
The MACD and the NYSI will cross below zero soon.....

The daily drives the other time frames ....not viceversa

1360 SPX again in September
