ES closed at 1325 in Friday's session. You're married to these arbitrary constructs and waiting with glee for price to confirm once a quarter. Good luck with that, whatever works for you. A buddy mentioned it in chat and we got a chuckle.

It wasn't my prediction; it was the range implied by SPX vola, as such, I take no credit for it, regardless of the outcome. Your range was blown-out as well even with the larger margin of error.



Short 57.00 here.





Why do you think spy options predicted a much larger range than the actual cash derivative ? I have my theories but am always looking for other answers.

Actually, looking back, I f*cked up. I believe the range implied by the atm vola was double what I posted, 170 handles. The atm strike was ~1345, so a range of 1260 to 1430 was implied.
 
i was long a few 135 puts in spy yesterday and th evolume was around 1200-1400 ,at around 1230 to 1:30 it jumed to 11,000,that is my guess a reaction to the 1361 res line holding and a bearish bet or cheap insurance at 3.20 a pop

And i thought I was just crazy.
we closed ~ 1350 on that day, my studies were showing a ~ 10 % range but my assumption was it would be roughly 5% up and 5 % down from 1350 area but we only went up about 3 % and down 5.5 %.
 
Quote from RsX:

Expecting ES to sink towards 1343-1344 and will closely watch the price action there. So far, probabilities are good for another leg upwards from there as long as they keep it clean above 1340 level

Long 1343.00 , -3.50pts stop. Target around 1380.
