  1. I stopped out for 1 tick of profit on the 48 long trade. It would now be 2,5 points in the red.

    If we bottom out and make a new push higher I can re-enter again at 48.

    Looking to jump in long but it looks like the valley of indecision here.

  3. 2nd last trading day of January today. Nice bullish bias.

    Negative bias for the last trading day of January, actually.

    If we close down - 1 % today it will be the first time in a long time we do that on the 2nd last trading day of January. May not mean anything though, but that's just some of the stuff I look at from time to time.

    I'm long the NQ from about 12050, SPX was about 4050 I think at the time. I still think the SPX could drop down to 4010 before a bounce up, or even a move lower.

    Will probably see how we do over the next hour before thinking about cutting my losses.

    I'm on the sidelines now and will probably stay there until the last hour.

  6. Last week's RTH mid-point on ES at 36.25. Could trigger a bounce if we get there.

    Market's in a range now and pushing the lower end of the range.

    I just know I don't want to short this action, but who knows.

    Maybe. That will be a bit too low for me to wait for.

    I think after 6 consecutive green days, and the touching of a previous daily point of resistance, it makes sense for the SPX to have a couple of red days now.

  8. FWIW, I just checked my statistical model and the chances of a recovery today are very slim at this point. A drop into the Close is more likely.

    Maybe 4030.

    I'm probably calling it a day here soon.

    The kind of day that goes range bound and only when it's too late you realize it was a down day. Kudos to everyone who catched the short side today. I misread this one.

    If we should rally out of here I would be very surprised, so curious to see where we close today. By rally, I mean closing above 4060 or more.

    I saw those guys in concert at the 1984 New Orleans World's fair.
