Green Monday (BTFD)

Well, I hope we go up on Monday, so it's definitely going down - not to mention we used to have all the Black Monday! threads, and now we're left with BTFD!.

It wasn't a re-balancing. It was a "risk-off" trade into FI. Did it really seem like an allocation play to you? And we took out the weekly low by 12 into the close. Ugly. I have no idea where we close, but a touch if 1618 futures seems to be in the cards for Monday.

What's FI? While we're at it, what's D/V?
 
gap up about 1pt on the spy, pump it up an extra .50-.75...then pull the rug out from under all of the buy the dip players.

I didn't see FI go up across the board, only a tiny bit. Dumb money was pushing this rally, there are many funds that have to rebalance at the end of the month. At the end, we're only speculating so that's my thought. For a risk-off mode i'd look to see things like municipals go up.

there also was huge SPY put oi @ 164 strike expiring..could have been some delta hedging that pressured the selling.

in any case no one really knows..enjoy the vol if you guys know how to..good luck!

What did you use to come up with the figure 1618?

Don't know his thinking but I've got a line at 1619 which would be an old S/R line. Other line that was support and got busted on Friday was @1632. I'd be looking for that (1619-1632) to be the range. Trending toward that 1632 line as I write this. If it manages to get past that before tomorrow morning, next thing I've got is 1647. Busting that 1647 line is what really got the momentum to the downside going IMO.
