I’m not going to start another thread
Looks like I was early and stopped out but we’re still topping here according to my indicators
I’m building a swing short in ES from 3550 to 3589
And selling SPY October expiration 350 to 360 call strikes on this run up
Objectives are still 3401 and 3281
Because it pays so well to short the top

Yeah - assuming you actually get the top.
If not - the initial and subsequent stop-outs will eat into your P&L when you finally nail down the top.
That's a gaslit argument. No different than bottom ticking for a long.
