not sure which trendline you mean at 72...please elucidate? thanks...


EDIT: do you mean extension of trendline from yesterday's 1:00ish (eastern) high to 3:30ish lower high? Although I see that currently at 75.50 and dropping...

In AH @ 2208ET, short from 1473.75. Added to short here at 1469.75. Target 1465-1463.
Ouch, stopped out at 1468.25. +5.5 on initial position, +1.5 on add-on. Didn't see that coming (but Chris did...nice work, Chris).

Quote from tortoise:

having just googled "dispersion field trade," only to come up with nothing illuminative...could you tell me, what exactly are "dispersion field trades? thnx...

A long dispersion trade is therefore, where the trader is:

Long the volatility of each constituent; and
Short the volatility of the index;

Used in options alot. There is a lot of information if you are interested in options, etc. Can be as simple or complicated as you like.

62.50 -- aka, "the end of civilization as we know it" -- holds
 
placing a buy stop 2 ticks above the first 15min bar... stop will be placed 2 ticks below.. if filled target would be retest of highs

If trades below 1460.. trade is cancelled.
