ES Journal - 2025/2026

Why this sudden pullback?

 

Bought a SPX 830 Put @ 3.5 goal is to sell @ 10
The day is still young.

Edit: Bought a 930 Call @ 1 goals is to sell @ 4.5 lol
Kind of an hedge or a double whammy.

The day I start buying those V they disappear.

 

Thurs and Fri were Doji's.

Also $DXY under pressure again another possible reason.

 

Why is gold screaming and the bonds not performing? Are we going for the emerging markets look?

 

Gold is up because Dollar is down. Why Bonds lackluster so far today, no idea. Possibly waiting for NFP but that's days away so no not that.

 

Note this happening later on:-

"Jerome Powell, Chair of the Federal Reserve, is scheduled to speak today, June 2, 2025, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time. He will be delivering his remarks at the Federal Reserve Board's International Finance Division 75th Anniversary Conference in Washington, D.C."

 

Slop chop day with no direction .

 

Had one 50pts V ... 4hrs to go.
Positioned for a retest of SPX 860 ...

 

Why do I ask silly questions instead of just buying

 

How was your REGN short? I had the puts, mine wasn’t productive.
