I been shorting this daily TF pb all morning. Successively. On 5 minute charts. In any pb (daily TF) this big there are many shorting opportunities. The daily TF is simply a pb. Trend is up. Not down. This is a pb. Not a 1000 point plunge. However, any PB that is sizeable will have many short and long opportunities. I been shorting, this morning, (every trade of mine short) in ES and Naz on 5 min charts because TA tells me to short in this daily TF PB. It is just a FLAG on the daily TF. No huge bear plunge. Of course it can turn into that. I don't care either way. I just watch PA. My reason for asking surf is to know "why" he is telling surfettes to "hold" short. Some time back he predicted a 1000 point plunge. What is he now that he is looking at to keep saying "hold". Is he wavering? I mean the 1000 point plunge hasn't happened. It could. But hasn't. It is a bull market, still simply in a PB. Why do I short. Easy. I slap a 20 EMA on the chart. And add SMA 89. If price is trading below both I look for shorting setups. I will short PB back to 20 ema. Once price goes above 89 ema I will look for long opportunities. If I get a strong BO of the 20 ema on the north side in this bear move down this morning, then I will look at a counter trend trade. But once price gets above both MA's I look mostly for long setups. Simple PA. If the 1000 plunge starts I will trade it. I doubt it will as this is a strong bull market. So, probabilities favor a continuation of the bull. But it really doesn't matter to me. I don't have to sweat out the termite in a yo yo ride like surf. Up and down, up and down, then down and up, and down and up. Praying and hoping. Hoping and praying. I just trade what is happening and what is likely to happen in the next 30 minutes or less. It is much easier to forecast 30 minutes out than 3 months out!
