    How Do Liquidity Providers Hedge Their Risk?

    They (the Market Maker) gets hit at the bid and price keeps going lower - a) they simply dump their position, and more - to the next possible bidder(s).....and/or b) they ramp the price higher, or simply sell at a higher price (.01 or more), repeat as necessary. As for options, that's easy -...

    This leg down in the financials looks different

    Have no fear! When the banks are done leading the market lower, technology will take over. Tech has been lagging, not "the strongest" as the talking heads keep saying. This bear's gonna deflate the best of the best and won't end till then. As always, take it fwiw and JM oh so HO...

    Futures testing 7000 (will it hold?)

    Yes, the market in messed up - - should have a down tick rule in order to go long. It keeps falling because the economy is in complete and total shit.........banks won't extend credit to the unemployed for some reason. Whatever. Just trade it, who cares which way it goes?

    Earnings Plays

    Look at the chart of ESRX and, as I mentioned in my other post, consider the following: 1) It's earnings, revs and guidance release was simply "news" and is not ever "supposed" to go up - or down for that matter. Anticipating market reaction to "the news" , especially the way you are doing...

    Earnings Plays

    All the below is absolutely nothing more than just my opinion. Above all, news is news is news - - - - good or bad, it's still just news. 1st: If you continue to rely on company's hitting a triple play for you to profit from, be prepared to take some great big hits........actually, trading...

    Inverted head and shoulders on the SPX?

    Could be a nice pop for sure - could be a "fade the fed" type of day today and we zoom higher. OTOH, VIX is at support and ES is very near key support. Yesterday's low on the ES needs to hold here imo. If it fails, long is wrong. Steve

    Inverted head and shoulders on the SPX?

    Dude, I hope you are only joking.....stock_trader3 is a student of Jim Cramer and has not only lost all his life savings, he has never even made a trade or investment in his whole life - he even admitted it. Trust me traderyin, if you follow him, you won't even be able to afford net zero...

    Inverted head and shoulders on the SPX?

    I wouldn't say it was non-existent, but imo, it was questionable at best. If anything, it was a complex IHS..........iow, very iffy. Patterns you want to trade should be obvious, not iffy. In the opening post, the guy on the video seemed almost "Cramerish" to me particularly with his whole...

    Line in the sand

    Making another flag? Gotta test that 813 area now - so far it's holding strong in over night trading. Steve

    Line in the sand

    Like I said in the 1st post........If the bear flag works, watch for test of that 813 area, it needs to hold, if it fails, there is very little to stop us from heading down to test that 739. Just fwiw Steve

    Line in the sand

    If this were a regular trading day, I'd say we had a classic fake out move higher, then crashed back below the 858 area on high volume........currently down by almost a point @ 848.00 ~ the low of the session and below the key 850 area. Steve

    Line in the sand

    I only recall last years MLK holiday. IIRC, that was when the futures were "lock limit down" - or down by 70 points or so thanks to some "rogue trader" in France - - -then the fed did a surprise .75 rate cut. First the bulls were wiped out, then the bears got their heads handed to them...

    Line in the sand

    Cool! You may be right - either way, it sure seems like you'll know one way or the other pretty quick - and you already know your exit - and THAT'S pretty much what I'm getting at with this thread.........we are at a line in the sand! Then all we need to worry about is a fake out move lol...

    Line in the sand

    Ah, ok, I see what you're saying! I just never used the "X" vs S&P so I have no clue on the reliability. See, from my perspective, I'm taking a "wait and see" position while watching to see if that 858 area has a confirmed break above, or, to see if it holds as resistance - which is what...

    Line in the sand

    Awesome. Thank you for posting that! I never knew there was a chart for those.......probably better off for it lol. I'm not sure how to relate the XLF and SMH vs the S&P in any useful T/A. In my opinion, the positive divergence says that we go higher, yet never having used those charts...

    Line in the sand

    Cool replies! That's always a rare thing here lol. Anyway, I'm not seeing those 2 month highs on the Qs or SMH - -they both closed higher just last week so not sure what you mean there, but personally, I've been viewing the Nasdaq as lagging the dow and S&P, vs what the talking heads are...
