Hi Steve - Who's the Nick/Nickikeak

Hi Steve -

Who's the Nick/Nickikeak to whom you're referring in tonight's news letter?

Jephrey...please take time to review

Posted by steve on 31st of Oct 2022 at 05:55 am

Jephrey...please take time to review ALL of my previous posts this weekend and that will answer your question.

Re Some guy named Nick. I never listen to rumors, no matter where they come from. There is nothing in any of the data ( or charts!)  that says pivot.

I'm not big on the

Posted by fundamentalvalues on 31st of Oct 2022 at 09:28 am

I'm not big on the sold narratives or reasons for why things did this or that on a certain day either. Whoever is running the market show, algos, I call them "Oz" ultimately knows where it is going and takes it there, I just buy or sell based on prices. A lot less headache. 

I don't have any emotional attachment and that enables me to operate day to day easily in accordance with my plan. I also don't watch all the ticks, I've found it to not be good for my health or outlook on life. Checking how things look on the close is often enough for me to see if any adjustments need to be made or not. To each is own. I've learned to be me because that is the only person I can be. 

Thank you!

Posted by matt on 22nd of Aug 2022 at 10:03 am

not sure what you are asking - here's an image of the KISS charts with the cycles and ATR's etc - we'll probably see a cycle support show up sometime on the 130 min and 1/2 day but not yet.  ATR was lost last week on the 60 min and 130 min, and this morning lost on the 1/2 day. Still holding on the daily, getting close at 4130 approx

SPX - 5300 by next Wednesday? That might be too pessimistic...  I didn't watch the SOTU last night, but I'm guessing that if you listened carefully there were a lot of promises made that would require large increases in Federal deficit spending probably while saying out of the other side of mouth that deficit would be reduced by "paying fair share" or some nonsense like that.  Anyway, it was hard to imagine a down market today no matter what the jobs number was with people coming in with dreams of manic Gov spending dancing in their heads.

Posted by steve on 27th of Oct 2023 at 10:15 am

ES came down to initial support zone and popped 18 points - so thin and fast and best to lock down immediately for you scalpers.   Very difficult to play unless plan in place and dead focused which is difficult for me trying to post here.  I'm going to refrain from squiggles and wait for some structure to align but you can see the validity of key zones.

Steve, education question for you and Matt. So far they have come up short filling the gap on the SPX at 4400ish, but if and when they do fill it and perhaps run it higher, is this what you refer to as creating liquidity? Trying to learn here!  Thx,

They  ran the equal highs

Posted by steve on 17th of Oct 2023 at 01:23 pm

They  ran the equal highs on the SPX earlier (that's what I see creating liquidity and soon after your get a pullback).   The break takes out stops and gets some traders to chase setting the trap and then reverse.  Down 20+ points since

Steve despite the higher than expected CPI and the 20 point sell-off in ES immediately thereafter which has already started to recover, it feels like they want to push SPX to close the gap up at 4400ish in the regular session. Are you going to be on the lookout for some kind of reversal when if and we get up to that level?

Quick pop on NQ (QQQ

Posted by steve on 18th of Sep 2023 at 10:57 am

Quick pop on NQ (QQQ calls) - choppy action so lock down some gains and trail if partaking (nothing easy in chop) 

Steve, the demand zone you

Posted by DK on 18th of Sep 2023 at 10:54 am

Steve, the demand zone you showed in the newsletter for the Qs is much much lower than their current price which means that if they were to get down there, NQ would probably have to get far below the current demand zone you list above15375-15340. How do we reconcile that?

Answer:  The QQQ shows Daily Demand zone - I'm simply trading intraday zones but more credence on the Daily for sure 

What I post here is

Posted by steve on 18th of Sep 2023 at 10:57 am

What I post here is updated based upon recent price action - focus on such levels for intraday.  I replied directly to your post - added below your question that Daily is more important but simply playing intraday for trade.  Note the 30 minute QQQ chart as well from weekend. 

NQ quick fade off resistance

NQ quick fade off resistance now into support but extremely choppy today so position small and remain nimble IF attempting to play

One reason was the gamma squeeze due to 0DTE put buyers (market makers hedge by shorting stocks).   Saw the opposite on the buy side several times back in June/July.  But this action helps explain why we don't seem to get immediate follow thru selling on such candles.  Now with that said, JP on deck.

Steve, why is ES your

Posted by DigiNomad on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:25 pm

Steve, why is ES your primary reference? I assume you trade futures? Do a lot of other people on here also trade ES?  Just wondering because it's confusing for me as a SPX and SPY trader (those are much closer to each other in nominal terms). 

It trades around the clock

Posted by steve on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:29 pm

It trades around the clock so that's why - you can apply to the SPX 

I for one virtually only

Posted by mundy on 4th of Aug 2023 at 06:46 pm

I for one virtually only trade futures because of living in New Zealand. I use ES, NQ, YM, RTY, GC and MBT.

SPX does also...it's just not

Posted by DigiNomad on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:32 pm

SPX does also...it's just not available as easily as ES on many platforms.  (I think it trades 23.5 hours per day...but I could be off on that).

It doesn't really apply well to SPX. It's a 25 point delta right now and was 30 point delta 15 minutes ago. 

No it does not it

Posted by steve on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:34 pm

No it does not it closes at 4 pm EST -currently there is a 20 point difference to SPX and ES just adjust to SPX 

I make after hours trades

Posted by DigiNomad on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:35 pm

I make after hours trades in SPX all the time. On the CBOE website they advertise it as a 24/5 product. 

You make after hours trades

Posted by steve on 4th of Aug 2023 at 02:35 pm

You make after hours trades but the index closes at 4 pm.  Just take my levels and adjust the the SPX (simple)

ES is the SPX futures - SPX is a cash index with regular trading hours (that' why they ring the bell)

Posted by DigiNomad on 10th of May 2023 at 09:55 am

I'm doing just fine with shorts (90% of my account). You don't have to short at the money to make money. Also, the twitterati celebrating a 5.0% core CPI (Kobessi Letter, etc) and saying the Feds plan is working need to step away from the bong and think for a second. After today's flat core print (e.g. the one that shows no improvement and is still 150% above 2% target), the Fed is stuck between two choices - another raise or a pause. They might get pressured into a pause, but they probably need a raise (or 4).   Consider this: how bad is 5% core? Well, prices will double every 14.4 years with that rate of inflation (great for some businesses, but probably not great for you). On the other hand, at 2%, prices double every 36 years.  Not so great for the a lot of businesses trying to show growth at all costs (even if growth is simply a function of passing on inflated prices to consumer, as it has been recently), but much better for the common people.

Posted by Ray on 1st of Mar 2023 at 10:27 am

Matt - Regarding the TradingView Chart, is the left side the supply/demand levels, and the right side tick levels?  Is this chart updated daily; or, do we take the new supply/demand levels and correct?

on that Trading View Chart

Posted by matt on 20th of Oct 2022 at 09:46 am

on that Trading View Chart - you guys can link to your broker like Interactive Brokers, and place trades directly on the chart - have limit and stop orders in place waiting at important levels, you can easily drag those orders up and down on the chart. If you use Interactive Brokers like I do, their Excel-like interface sucks for placing trades especially on futures - I always link my IB directly to my Trading view. 

also if you have a Tradestation account, you can link your TS account to Trading view as well and execute your trades through Trading View instead of through the TS software - the trades are executed in your TS account. Why would you want to do this? I find that Tradestation gets laggy and prone to freezing on fast days and this can screw with your trading in fast environments - this doesn't happen on Trading View

ES 3755 strong pivot pulling back 

It looks like to me

Posted by pintopower on 28th of Sep 2022 at 04:06 pm

It looks like to me on the hourly chart from the beginning of September  that the SPY is doing an ending diagonal down.  If my math is correct, it has four touches so far which would indicate that perhaps one more low to about 356 or so.   If it does that then target on a breakout of the ending diagonal would be approximately 381 ish.

pintopower - the QQQs could

Posted by pintopower on 28th of Sep 2022 at 04:52 pm

They don’t do stop losses.

Posted by mdgfain on 27th of Sep 2022 at 01:22 pm

They don’t do stop losses. They have first, second, and third entires ( occasionally) and they buy twice as much at second entry, 3x on third entry. Their system is very effective if you take all of the trades, not so much if you just take the ones you want. Hope that helps.
