Out at 43 2/3 (average), a result of having a market if touched order at 44. Why 44? 45 (actually, 45.35) is key resistance on the 60-minute chart, and I did not want to press my luck. Also, 44.25 would represent a 50% retracement.
If the close for this hour is over 45.25, that would suggest a strong close for the day, and a strong close for the day would mean that there was a successful retest of the bottom (daily chart), punctuated by a Wyckoff spring.
Added on at second pullback to 1441. Closed both positions at 1445.75 for +4.75 each. Finally in the black today in my daytrading account. (I may just quit while I'm ahead.)
Looking to sell rallies. But, remember, there is not much time left! I don't like taking day trades much past 3, because if wrong, one can really get trapped. I will readily trade after 3 only if there is strong direction, and will even average up if I see blood in the proverbial water. But that is rare.
Didn't close over 45.25. Price is back in congestion. If today's close = <47.5, a retest is highly likely.
Bonds had a huge rally today. Also the vix did not move much either. Anybody got a greater perspective on this?
