Buy stopped in long @ 1297.50 with stop at the lows. I am expecting this runs up here a little. Trailing stops on longs as we should get a double bottom to test the lows again. If it runs and no double bottom then will remain long with stops trailed up.

My trading platform did not stopped working and this always mean chop.
If we go one or other way quickly it always freezes. Watch out - this is dobule bull bear trap!!!
 
Looking to get long off 1

Cool, scaled out now.

BTW, Gold put in a very similar bullish pattern pre-FED

Going to hold 1/3 Long here as I don't see a reverse signal.
 
Quote from kinggyppo:

Here is a vix chart. Looking at the daily chart I find it interesting that the highest daily close was only $31.01, previous high daily close in november was $31.09. Bottom line is that the market soundly rejected a closing volatility over $30.00. Thinking vol may spike over 30 again but it will eventually trade to 26.

update on vix.

Quote from StockyIrishman:

Sold my long from 69.75, I hate to buy at the high, any thoughts on what good pull back to jump in on the long side would be?

1380 would be nice and plausible low-risk long.... then ride up the 5th wave of this move and sell before shit gets ugly

yes almost there, 1380. Still jockeying my position until then.

Will look to put short on 1380-1386. Will hold back to the lows. Once we break those lows into the low 1200s maybe even 1150, we will have a massive upside move. Opportunity favors the prepared mind. I don't feel they will take it to 1560-90 just yet.

Good luck, always use risk control.
