looking to buy 49s

gmst, here is another case that is similar to what happened this afternoon. Basically, we have 56.75 holding, and sellers have had several opportunities to get short. 55.50 held until 55.25 traded and then it went right back up to high. If they don't run some stops here I'd be surprised...

I'll give you an opportunity to retract that statement that you've been saying for the last month before I do some actual statistical analysis (which you have not done obviously) and show the ridiculousness of that. But, some clarification: * Over what period of time is it 78% profitable...

I think this is important too; I began to make some improvement when I left my chart settings alone for probably six months, no changes. But recently, about a month or so ago, I did make some changes in that I duplicated a chart type I was using, and eliminated several of the others, still...

gmst, maybe many things can be attributed to this, news or whatever. However, a level does not usually get hit that many times without at least a stop run. If the level continues to hold, it becomes too low risk for people not to enter it; low risk equals low probability, thus the stops...

With this holiday volume? I doubt it.

Dumb question: I just went to finviz and summed the volume of all S&P 500 companies trading today, and their combined volume is: 1,813,034,440 Yet, CNBC reports just over 300,000,000 for the volume today on the S&P. So, is the volume on the cash index reported differently than just the...

long still seems to be the direction, but I'm just not sure the volume is there to really push it up, though there's not much opposing it really either. We just hit 1M contracts a few mins ago, yawn

Thank you ammo -- I don't usually watch intraday so wanted to see if the gaps in the 1m were normal.

Thanks king. I'm not really looking for one which leads, just want an accurate picture of cash volume. Due to arbitrage all of the products will have similar behavior no doubt. Someone suggested I look at SPY volume due to its volume being in the millions. Thanks for the feedback!

out BE

taking a stab long 49, 2 tick stop, looking for a nice break

If it's not too much trouble could someone with a real-time SPX chart post a 1-minute chart showing some of today's activity? I'd like to do a comparison.

So in your opinion, does the SPY provide a good proxy for the actual cash volume, better than ES?

While I'm bored.. Do any of you watch intraday volume on SPY to get a different picture from what ES is doing? I am considering monitoring all 500 SP symbols and doing a minute-by-minute summation of their volume to get an accurate representation of true volume. I'm curious as to how this...
