Swing Trading QQQ

Yep. Volatility is gone for a long time. I don't think it felt like the end of the world when the V was so fast lmao.

We've got 2 catalyst to put this at ATH both on Wednesday. CPI and NVDA ER. NVDA is the golden child, there's 0 chance it would ever miss. Could legitimately see QQQ 457-460 this week.
Theres also the Retail data on Wednesday. That will be very telling of future Inflation.
 
Predicting past a day or 2 is a fools game . 2-3 weeks ago few saw us back on the door of ath’s this quick . You were calling for a 10% correction . Just trade what’s at hand . If the mkt were rational we’d be trading at a 15 p/e max with 5% interest rates and very mediocre earnings . After all these decades people still want to buy dips and have no fear of owning them as people perceive little risk.

Yes, I did believe a correction was playing out and yes, I did say we could go as far as 10 %, but I didn't put any money at risk on that.

If you read my posts in this thread for last week, you can see that my predictions were invariably bullish and that was my intraday play all week long after some shorts in prior weeks.

Generally, I try to avoid posting trades or fixed views because I want to remain flexible and loose in the markets. The moment you publicly put forth a view or a trade you tend to want to defend it and you want to be right. No doubt causing one to possibly hold on to losers instead of switching gears when needed.

I've been around for a while now and I've seen it all. What surprises me is that there are still traders who seemingly have been around for a long time (not referring to @schizo here) and still struggle to play the long side because they let political views, opinions and concepts like 'overbought' get in their way.

The market's going to go where the market's going to go. And if that's up, better be long. And for US indices that seems to be most of the time.
 
Well, even you were shitting bricks at some point and starting to have doubts. LOL.
Definitely was not shitting bricks. I did at the time think it could go lower. Obviously that was a big mistake. Either way, now that the vix has been crushed, it's like watching paint dry until the 2 catalysts push this to the moon.
