Crash Monday? SVB contagion, VIX spike

But Ken ISN'T a nice guy at the heart of it. That's like putting perfume on a pig. Dest is a nice guy because he doesn't try to baffle us with BS.

I'm thinking a guy who seems to have an attorney on speed dial isn't a particularly honest and upstanding guy.

No Journal for me, too time consuming and I'm not that important. I figured this was a trading thread so thought I might be able to get and share ideas. I have to establish creds somehow.

I would think people would be more interested in the ES 3919 number. The last 1.5 hrs, it was a magnet until the very last minute before end RTH.

Anyhow, I won't pollute the thread anymore unless I can add to OP's specific insights.

The reason I didn't post prices is because it's way on the other side of the screen. I use 49" monitor and to take an inclusive picture, would have to be so far back you can't read anything.

So here's the prices, just line it up with the other side. Good Luck all.

You are kidding us, right? You cannot post a screen shot, or show us any correlation with price and timestamps, because you have a 49" screen? You do know that is not how computers work? You ever see that button on your 101-key IBM keyboard that has Prt Srn on it?

Anyways, not going to get into it with you. I honestly thought you would come out and be a new real player in the space of the real traders. I was wrong.

What a let down.

Cool story, Bro. Can't be bothered but posts Beowulf in the next reply. It's a thread about impact on banks from Rates and MBS/contagion.

lol. So the size of your monitor determines the size of your screenshots. That's a new one. There is this new thing called Windows. TDA's front end can be manipulated by size, and the screenshot as well. Welcome to 1998!

I know this banned nick... it's Noxzema!

SVB fail may be the black swan event needed to trigger massive selling, circuit breaker halts come Monday.. or not.

What do you think? Trading strategies? I loaded the fkg boat with UVXY in case vix/volatility spike Monday. Any thoughts or dialogue re next week's price action?

Bank runs, tech washout, the sky is falling...

@Dest: this is op's post. I didn't think I hijacked his thread. I made a couple calls before the market opened, then tgt for the close, and then backed it up afterwards with real trades. Granted I also didn't want to post position sizes. I trade mostly the micro NQs since I can better scale in with my relatively small account. It's not the best for commsisions, but it fits my style.

Not sure why all the hostility. And yeah, a journal is much more work than occasionally coming here to make a prediction.

I opened the account in Oct, traded equities, ended year up 20%.
Then in Jan, applied for futures, which I started just trading Jan 17 this year, up another 139% YTD.

@Overnight: The first set of pics, I took on my phone as it was easier. Screen shots I have to post process to block out the things I don't want others to see for privacy. I'm up 15% for the day.

You can easily line up the trades by opening both pics I uploaded and viewing side by side.

Btw, I havent taken the time to read all the posts on here, but did either of you post anything about the market directions? serious question?

There's been plenty of off-topic BS by many other on this thread including the guy who's accusing you of going off-topic. I think your posts were more interesting than most posted on this thread.

Hostility and attacks is the norm on this site, sadly.

make a journal, and only post as much as you please, not sure why that is off limits to you. What was wanted here was thoughts about price action and how to trade it, not some vaguely understandable list of trades and black box strategy, that is useless to us. For example you predicted where market will close, ok why? that would be great journal stuff
