B1S2,

sorry to bother you with the question as most probably you answered it before :

what was your initial R/R for the trade ?

:)

I risk no more than 2 percent of TLNW on any one trade/idea. :)
 
Quote from volente_00:

Watch spy interest. The 100 calls have already dropped 60k in open interest. Sure is lopsided for the put holders if they keep it under 100. Keep an eye on 98 spy open interest change in the morning. i won't be the least surprised if they fill the gap from friday between now and Friday. 968 -1004 range for rest of the week.

The gambling long call that are making $ now has to be washed out too.
 
Quote from Lawrence Chan:

W. up thrust in the making.

989.5 should act as resistance.

If so, 983 - 984 is the target.

Sell zone worked afterall.

Confirmed top since it is now 5 pts lower from 990.

And 983 acted as resistance in after hours too. =D
 
Quote from MandelbrotSet:

It's very interesting how, over the past few days, the market has been heldup (or barely dropped) during the US trading session, but given what are easily 10-20 pt moves during the overnight (London) session.

- Actually, not interesting at all, more like irritating, I just wanted to comment on it. -

Yeah, interesting that Morgan Stanley has lately been obsessively active in after hours trading...
 
Quote from Pom:

When do you think the volatility return?

And yes, I do lurk alot, specifically, this thread. :)

After school year start, early September.

It was like that (slow mkt) before the current 2008 to now "crisis mode", when most traders can have a nice summer break :)
 
I'm now convinced the move was purposely *delayed* so that daytraders don't get a piece of it.

looking for short under 979 today.

That is what today is for. Let's see if they can grab close to 68 cash to get some more put writes and close some calls.

We are now at the juncture where bigger picture down trend is trying to resume.

Thus the memory effect of the bulls, the rabbits (late bulls) jumping on board plus media will keep defending this mkt - buy on every dips and average down as much as they can.

I am not saying that bulls are losing, just that the strong uptrend is now taking a pause.

There is ample time to ride on the down trend after it breaks its current weekly up trend. For now, think of it as a weekly level pullback should put this into a better context for trading.
