Quote from petty1978:

If this rally continues, most likely todays 9:30am est 30m bar high will be revisited (1094). My order is in for sell short at 1088.25, but 1094 is likely as well...but it runs the chance of not getting filled and missing the trade...

Missed my fill by 3 ticks so far, hopefully we get a push back up

I and others are short the ES June 1100 straddle (synthetic) from 88.00 premium. Long ES from 1078 and short the 1100Cs.

Expecting a strike touch (before Monday) and a trade-out at 70.00 premium. Will look to hold half until expiration.

Quote from wave:

Petty,

Not in the way it's usually taught in the books. My trading revolves around market maker logic and physics of waves.

And a larger part deals with stop running.

Interesting...

If I had deep pockets I would like the esz10 at 1075, 10 point discount to cash, may be a bargain on a reversal. Good trading folks!

We just need a little push up to fill, then I can sit back and wait to make or loose money-ya gotta love trading

Am I the only one who still expects a 20 points rally from here?

Gonna see if the test of 1090 (S2) holds before entry. Headed there now, but price is losing steam.

May be an opportunity to come out of the bushes, and swipe up a nice injured antelope with little effort needed.

Ok, trade is filled, we should see a timely drop to 1083 level then from there price may start to dance around...once price closes below 1076 on the 30m bar, stops are moved to break even.
