ES/SPX both above last week's high here. Kamala wants a green September before the weekend. I'm locking in 24 and calling it a weekend if that's hit. Otherwise just holding for 60/80 I think.

LFG, bulls! :) I will only regret not being bigger now, but doesn't feel like a position to push the long side with size as I'm too close to the market and we're at the end of a big move already. Stop at 20. Targeting 40/60. If my stop is hit, I think I'll use the lock-out function on TST and...

Nice shakeout. Seems like I got positive slippage on that one. Re-entering long here, but not betting the farm. See if we can at least test 30.

First major level on the upside would be 5630. Last week's high. If we get there and go through that - I think we're gunning for the August Close at 5658,25. I'm not super-confident, but enough that I'm a small sized long here comfortable holding for a bit. To make a statement above that -...

Initial upside target tagged on NQ. Let's see how the market acts on this pullback now, i.e., pullback or a reversal. Looks like it was swallowed up just as I typed that.

That's a good one. LOL. Flash Crash, too. We need a bit of humor in this game. :)

Does anyone have a good AI generator at hand for cartoon pictures? My vision for today is the bulls dealing the ultimate death stab straight through the heart for any remaining bears. A more friendly picture with the same effect would be a bull poking at a sad bear or something to that effect. :)

The Kamala algorithms ate that dip up with both hands.

As long as this holds yesterday's high/close on the Open - I'd be surprised if we don't see at least 5640 today.

While September typically is a weak month - it's possible it already delivered on its promise with that initial plunge last week taking out half of August already. Long term there's still around 45 % green Septembers. Being an election year it does not seem like a too wild take that this...

I think the Kamala-rally could continue today - taking us to 5640. Possibly all the way to 5680. Something’s up…

This recovery reminds me of the prior recovery. Always happens a lot faster than everyone thinks. Probably a lot of FOMO + short covering driving it. Just guessing.

Will September go green as soon as tomorrow? Looks possible. Never mind the trend line. Might as well delete it. LOL. But I do draw them in once in a while if they seem to fit. LOL.

For example, I could have been greedy enough to buy this top...

It was an exaggeration, yes, but it was a day where you could have made multiples of your average day and enough to weather a ton of red days. I've been cutting my winners short for most of my trading years, but in later years and especially this one I've started really running my winners...

Good point. Yesterday was a day which could retire a good trader. It's the kind of day I tend to maximize, but I locked myself out on my account after being up on the morning and just watched helplessly the rest of the day. The approach I'm currently gravitating towards is simply trading...

You see any big players now, @QTrader20? Not sure how you monitor that, but seems like some volume coming into the market on this push, no?

Added. LFG to 5599 at least.

It's an interesting subject, actually. Saving your bullets, that is. In hindsight, most of my big wins have been trades with a strong move where I layered into the move by adding as the market moves my way with very little initial risk. It's amazing when I start to reflect on it. And most of...

Stopped out the prior long, but got back in on this PB. Small size. Definitely not a bet-the-farm long as I see conflict, too. May add if we make new highs.
