    not sure which trendline you mean at 72...please elucidate? thanks...


    EDIT: do you mean extension of trendline from yesterday's 1:00ish (eastern) high to 3:30ish lower high? Although I see that currently at 75.50 and dropping...

  8. A long dispersion trade is therefore, where the trader is:

    Long the volatility of each constituent; and
    Short the volatility of the index;

    Used in options alot. There is a lot of information if you are interested in options, etc. Can be as simple or complicated as you like.

  10. placing a buy stop 2 ticks above the first 15min bar... stop will be placed 2 ticks below.. if filled target would be retest of highs

    If trades below 1460.. trade is cancelled.
