I don't know, is there a long bias in this thread? Personally i am by far mostly bearish in time, but at this moment i am pretty confident that there will be a mid-term bottom around here.
Of course, i usually look for a wide range bar ending a down-side move to enter on the long, and I believe that we might not be stretched enough yet...

Of course i am willing to bet the long side...but with pretty tight stops

As i write, i take 2k shares long SPY at 29, with a 10 cent stop and 20 cent tgt

impatient, took the 117.40s while i had adjusted the stp to 117.26
 
Always fun to buy a top. At least I covered a short with a profit, but nonetheless. :) I traded my P&L, wanting to have a green week, instead of using a stop above the obvious pivot.

But I digress...

Can`t you all feel the pull from below?

We`re down 21,75 points from the cash close, quite normal with some retracement. I think we`re only retracing in a down trend and catching up with the 20-EMA.

These are dangerous waters both for longs and shorts, although all longs are counter-trend from here. Could still be profitable scalps, but the trend remains down and the obvious magnet is 1151 below.

Now that I puked on my earlier short, I think I`m done for the week, but those are my two cents as I see it now.

Perhaps I could enter a short if current support should break down. :)

:( no, but you might be perfectly right. Will remain cautious.
Obviously any long at this moment is bottom picking
And ofc for the bulls, the lower the price, the sexier
