  1. im in same boat. Working with the houses money now. Don’t know if I want to give up my profits knowing it’s likely we have already hit the daily range

  3. Just held UPRO all day and exited at close -- small profit but nothing too exciting. Should have just had limit orders 10 S&P points below Friday's close as that was the low I was looking for.

  5. In the event we'll see an Up Week - I think we put in the Week Low yesterday, but it's still possible we'll see a test of yesterday's Close (59.50) and lower on the Open. The economic number coming out in a few hours may shake things up, too.

    But it's worth a lotto ticket from here. Tightening up a bit at this point in case I can buy again at lower prices.

  6. I'd be surprised to see another dump at the open, but don't rule anything out. That would be 3 in a row. I'm patiently awaiting the numbers, and will evaluate in a few hours. We are dead smack in the middle of a channel on the 4 hour chart. I see absolutely no value here at this time.

  7. Even if the market bottomed out - it won't necessarily be a V-bottom. It can take some time.

    Scratched out of the prior trade for - 1,0.

    Still leaning long - but better if I can get in again around 40/50. :)

  8. yah, PA is definitely not indicative of a V bottom. But If we continue to drift lower here, I'll be a buyer near the open and looking for 20 points

  9. Improved my entry @ 53.50.

    Same bias. Leaning long above yesterday's LOD assuming the Week Low is in and willing to take a few stabs here, but well aware we could drop far lower from here, so being cautious...

  10. Definitely a tougher read here which was my reason for exiting at close yesterday (and my entry on Friday was based on daily chart so I typically hold for the duration in that case). Ended up buying some ETHE early afternoon, some of which I'm still holding, which looked better than S&P at the time -- just trying to find the best macro theme and go with it.
