Quote from vmaxer:

There is an imperfect dragon happening.

1080 to 1036 to 1066 (H=30).
66 to 41.5 to 1059 (17.5, 2.5 extra).
59-30=29

This agrees with the ~20pt triangle that broke down at 1050.

I didn't trade it because I was thinking 53ish gap fill was the high probability short. But I still have SPY 108 puts which I intend to close at 1030.

closed 108 SPY puts at 5.05 $$$
went long at 29.25
out half at 30.75
stop moved to 28 so no risk.
*target 1040 for now

Paper trade

I posted the ES trade closer to real time in pekelo's thread.

I've actually mentioned the SPY put position a few times in this thread over the past week. Really kicked myself for not closing it last friday at 4.65 when there was a divergence too. Could have reloaded at 1/2 price.

If you want your posted trades to be treated seriously you'll have to post ES trades here in real-time with a stop level. Otherwise they will be considered paper trades. As a compliment to you I have already congratulated you in respect of your analysis.

Paper trade

Even if you are scaling in there has to be THE_LEVEL where you'd throw in a towel.

I listed my stop, because you can't understand it is not my fault.
