  2. I know. Market gave me a lesson there. LOL.

    Failed breakout on the Open + statistics indicating good chances of at least a morning pullback.

    Those statistics may be irrelevant for this market, though.

    If I may ask: what level do your Bollinger bands say for buying every single tick lower than...?

    Edit: Powell talking, btw.

  4. That 5600 level provided some resistance as expected, but I'm a greedy guy. Let's see if that was some initial hedging/profit taking and if we can make it on the next thrust.

    I'm not sold on the long side for today and still think there's a chance today rolls over for at least a gap fill, but seems worth the risk for now.

    Could be another boring day like yesterday.

    It seems to me that, while there's still an upward bias, the market is in wait-and-see mode until tomorrow and Friday.

  7. Agreed. Could be another snoozer like yesterday until CPI tomorrow. Markets in a tricky spot ATM as the long side is becoming less attractive without a pullback and we all know that shorting this currently is tricky, too.

    Moved my stop to 41 as I have to leave it unattended for a bit.

    If I was up extremely handsomely, I'd just call it a day here. If that loss hits, it's still a green day, but only slightly so. So, seems worth the risk in case I get lucky for a 5660 print and have a very good day. :)

  8. Look what it did at 300 and then at 400. 500 will be no different. It went in a straight line from 480-500 with no pullbacks or consolidation. Despite this unbelievable bull market it still does have $10-12 givebacks all the time(at least once a month). But the high probability is because of how it reacts to round $100 intervals.

    Was a day early and it makes sense that 500 even wouldn't be the high.

  9. Nice up move. Why am I not surprised. LOL. SPX very close to 5600 again on this push. Let's see if it pops this time.
