Bruce Springsteen style, " Santa Claus is coming....."


Quote from opt789:

Hey Spectre, what is a movie opening, is that one of those things you go to before you have kids? I can’t seem to remember. I think I would go crazy without my Plasma and HD.

Everyone:
I started a new poll thread about the direction of the SPX. Just for fun, but I would like to see where the sentiment is now that we are exactly in the middle of our range.

ya crude looks vulnerable here I am still long intraday, I still think we have another high or two to go... however will be looking for a doji to paint and then look to short if weakness comes in. If it goes below 92.30 that would be a early indication to short the next retest of the high.
 
Quote from DeepFried:

Yeah, interesting. Connect the 10/11 high with the 10/31 high and today's 1486 close could also indicate a buy. Also, run a Fibonacci fan from the 10/11 high to the 11/26 low and you get another support line at 1486.

I think most people (including me) are pretty bearish after this idiotic Chinese fire drill the Fed has been running the last couple of days but maybe we're at a sentiment low.

Sweet AH trade!

Went short just before RTH close at 1490.25. Added on in AH at 1489.50.

Closed initial position at 1484.50 for +5.25. Closed add-on at 1483.25 for +6.25.

nice man.. I was on that one too but covered earlier at 1485.

got my order resting long at 1482 with a 2.5 stop....

need to get some sleep tonight... we were up late last night trying catch that turn.. :)
 
Nice trades. I was short NQ from 2004.50 and covered 2100.50 too .... didn't fall as nicely as ES but a wins a win. Theres money to be made on these steady walkdown(up) moves that are made after extreme EOD moves.

You have been filled, my friend. Good luck, and sleep well. :)

EDIT: Wow, look at the buying that came in right at 82! You've sure got the magic touch!

Oops, just touched 1479, so if your stop was 2.5 you got stopped out.

It's amazing how these AH moves can go on monotonically without ever retracing or offering second chances to enter. Seems like it wasn't long ago that the AH session was usually a yawner, but lately it seems like there are major moves in AH more often than not, but the tactics for playing them are a bit different than RTH.
