The semi's have confirmed my monthly, quarterly, and just about held my numberline confirmation. Even if the market rallies here the semi's will most likely lag! I like Oil, OIH, and the XLE here. Numberlines are super strong and the price action has been solid.

Thats not an unusual spike lol. You must be short I cant think of any other reason for tripping over that

Haven't you ever heard of the phrase, "scalp for show, spread for dough" :D

Check out this spread king! VNQ-SMH....the trend is your friend :cool:

So seems as if you are still finding your footing? Some people like to trade high beta names. Others like to trade choppy etf's..like me :). Finding whats comfortable to you is of utmost importance! Do you have a framework for your trading? entering into pullbacks, entering through levels?

oppurtunities intraday forsure. Market does not have constructive action for swings tho. Speaking strictly in the stock space of course

one word for you in this market King.... #Scalpmode dislocations galore, persistence is lacking though!

What do you trade within the space? Directional, timeframe etc

Do you trade stock?

Here's the spreadsheet that I did up a while back. Was looking to aggregate relative volume for holdings within etf's to get an idea of what is in play everyday

Hey Ev, Yea i've done some DDE links from TOS to Excel. Its rather easy to do that : http://readtheprospectus.wordpress.com/2009/09/06/linking-excel-and-think-or-swim-for-streaming-real-time-calculations/ I linked some watchlists in for stocks in the major ETF's. I think I mentioned...

Good advice here :)

I'll chime in. here a bit give my opinion on things. I think when Mav mentions "execution" he is not talking about hitting buy, sell, setting stops etc. Execution is about seeing things in real time and being able to execute your ideas. Managin positions according to an objective view of price...

Retail: One of the leaders...back in the base

TECH: Failed the break and confirming the monthly today.

Low volume market that is kinda frustrating, but it is what it is! So last week it appeared as if we might be having some sectors breakout, but most of them went back into the bases or failed to have follow through. The energy sector is getting strong on my numberlines, BUT they haven't had...

You know thinking about it, vol trades very differently than anything else. More like a momentum stock than anything lol .I'm thinking outright trading is probably good there...just gotta pick the spots like usual!

So heres something strong for you guys that I noticed showed its hand a bit into the close today. XIV! I put this on my buy list today...so will be watching for entries into this. Only thing...how should I spread this? hmmmm

I think the way they have taken vol out of this market is very telling. Whatever this market does, I expect for some dislocations to start holding. So correlations have continued unwinding and we have seen some things begin to show some tells. Semi's and industrials are definitely showing...

What'd you think about this market King? Not necessarily interested in direction, but in volatility. If vol catches a bid, correlations will be very high and this market will have to be traded MUCH differently than i am anticipating. If we don't get any big distribution days and...
