We should hit 765 tomorrow.

Yup. 75 then 65. I'll unload the rest of my position in these areas.

Some nice calls in this thread lately, can anyone go into detail on what they base their analysis on?

Ya don't need MP to explain this IMHO. But I don't understand the HOD we touched at 807. Just how the hell did that came up? It makes no sense. My initial calculation was at 803. To say that it was simply due to the stops being mowed down doesn't go down very well with this noob.

20pts range target + trying to fill the gap at 809.5. if anyone can come up with something else, I'm interested.

No idea... nothing but air there on my chart.

My thinking is that 801-803 was the obvious short (50% retrace + H&S) and 810 was the obvious gapfill play. Squeeze the 803 shorts out of their positions but don't let the gap-fill traders a chance to exit their longs or take a short position and all of a sudden you have no short-term traders under the market.

All hindsight theory though... It was right in startraitors zone, maybe he has input.

Damn, the whole board is short, we're screwed. I'm screwed the most cause I have the lowest price.

I missed that one. Thanks, you just made my day

Cash leads the way today.

Check out SPX and SPY price level for the clues. =P

Placing a sell limit at 799.5 for the over night session. I think it's high. I hope I get lucky.

Sorry, but that's not good enough.

This is the best that I can think of.
