Help JB:
I am looking at the S+P chart and the Nasdaq and seeing levels (previous lows) about to be <i>compromised</i>.
In the recent past when these types of scenarios evolved, it seemed that the levels were breached - and then shored up and we advanced significantly perhaps a couple - three days following this event.
I am not a day-trader but am trying to make sense out of what to me sounds like Greek. Please clarify what I am to - in practical terms - do based upon your posts:

"1261.75 could hold on a breakdown"
What does "could hold on a breakdown" mean?
Quote from joeb8822:
"Trading under 1283.50 we where looking for shorts
then posted a level below 1265.00
would be 1261.25
LOD 1261.00"
Obviously we are trading on the ES below 1283.5 and - ok, we went as high as 1286 only to spin out back down.
So does that mean enter a BTO with a stop and get stopped?
What is "LOD" and we are now toggling below 1265 to perhaps as low as 1261.25 so what are we (you) doing/gonna do?
I am not criticizing just trying to figure out what to make from your levels, pivots, triggers, etc.
Bottom line: at what point do we feel confident in enter more short? Also at this level do technical traders typically bounce <i>strongly</i> from here and then retest to then break? Maybe we aren't quite there yet and should wait (as related to a "swing" trader).
Any help from you is appreciated.p$
This is just a numbers game floks but we still have to hold 1257
or BOOOOOOM
DO WE GO <B>BOOM NOW</B> - ACCORDING TO THE MASSES THAT DO THIS "DAY-SCALPING"
