After two days of not being able to reach Daily EMA I gave bulls benefit of the doubt and was not reward for it lol. Shorted some this afternoon just took every short setup I saw and ended the day making a little more than yesterday.

Bulls are going to have to at least touch my Daily EMA, if not candle close and/or trade above is strongly before I take long side more seriously. No need to fight this.

EDIT: Don't forget AAPL earnings today at 4:30 pm EST. In case anyone plans on holding overnight position.

maybe this gives us another rip to fade?

I cant see it dropping down now until after I close my short position out of boredom

Make or break level here for the next larger move up or down, IMO. Expect some price swings. They may not have legs.

Personally do not trade much or normally during after hours. I like the action from 9:30am till 4:00pm that's where I normally do better and can more easily see what their intentions are.

My issue with trying to short the AAPL earnings is that only gives you like 25-30 minutes before markets close... not something I would really ever personally do. I am always careful shorting towards EOD like 3:00pm or after.

In this market environment it's a little less risky particularly if you get a really fast and large move up, but still something I personally generally avoid.

@newbie463 lol I just broke my own rule.... but honestly could not resist selling that rally. Pretty sure I am done for the day now though. No need to give anything back.
