  1. Great. I've added the AAPL one as well. Although I use options, the P/L and P/L % in the charts as shown will be based on the underlying only. Entry and exit posts also added so people can go back and check on them.

  2. 1616.60 /RTY and 342.58 on SPY is coming up. As soon as they both hit today, if it happens, I'll go long.

  4. Although I called the 537.57 NVDA support buy, I did not long it because the general market itself was going down and did not want to add more long exposure.

  5. I closed the /ES long at 3443 here, which is the SPY equivalent of 344.28. I didn't prove it, but I understand that it may not count, so if that's the case, we can consider it still being held.

    I didn't see that call. Can you quote the post where you called es/spy long entry?

  7. Post 103 I said long SPY at 342.58. The thing is, I used SPY for the technicals, but /ES for the reduced commissions and ability to close during the overnight.

    Ok, thanks. Since you used spy for the call, you can use it to call the exit, even though you may be trading other stuff like es and options, imo.

    So yeah ... for tracking purposes ... you're still "holding" spy until you call the exit, imo.
