[JTrades]

Don't marry a position or idea.

 

[JTrades]

Market, AAPL, FB looking weak.

* FB weak, but liking possible long above 74 x73.8, target: 75, if it can even hold 73.8

 

[JTrades]

Unsure where to move stop on WYNN. Tempted to remove some at 197.5.

 

[JTrades]

Market has flat lined.

Going to leave initial WYNN stop in place. Still have the full position.

 

[JTrades]

Now end of August, September next week. Caution on longs.

 

[Redneck]

Now end of August, September next week. Caution on longs.

One aspect to keep in mind - Sept is EO 3Q - need the window dressing

After that heading into Nov election uncertainty

Data points only - opinions (at least mine) suck
