Markets are fluid and subject to change as we all know - key is
to establish a methodology that fits with your beliefs. You
can also incorporate a hybrid approach with your portfolio by
position investing certain funds for longer term (accepting
volatility until EVIDENCE changes) and dedicating other funds to
short term trading. Those are decisions for each individual.
If you have yet to formalize an investing/trading approach
please take some time to formalize a template - you can always
adjust but it's best to have something in place. From there,
you should formulate a PLAN that entails your objectives.
Once a plan is in place, then you can refine down to which
specific securities you want to invest and/or trade. This is
a TOP DOWN approach that should be enacted PRIOR to looking for
trades. Just like a Football team(or any sports team) - the
General manager has a vision/approach on how he/she wants to build
a team. Then he/she hires a coach to devise a scheme around those
players to maximize their talents. Next, the coach puts
into place a weekly game plan (making necessary adjustments) before
finally selecting specific plays.
How does BPT come into this picture? Think of BPT like a
consultant/assistant coach who helps to make your job easier
along the way. We provide daily analysis of several markets
which helps to provide some guidance as to how we see things.
We also spend a considerable amount of time providing tips
and educational examples to help execute you plan. Think of
the DVT approach for swing trades and the nightly discussion of
charts involving patterns and candlesticks, etc. We
also scan for and offer trade suggestions (ideas) that we believe
are valid setups and we take time to review the triggered setups in
the following days. Partake in only the ideas that fit into
your plan and simply ignore ones that don't. Finally, we
spend time posting relevant comments and numerous charts every day
in the trading community relating to what transpiring during that
trading session and updating trade ideas.
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.
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

"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" -
answered my question. That's what I thought but wasn't sure.
Thanks!

Steve, agree completely. Just thinking that maybe SMH good for a
short term trade since the ribbons are so wide on most time frames
and we are sitting on major support (very very slightly below).
Looking for an entry with a stop at today's lows.
Personally, as stated last night, not interested in shorting
(chasing down) but in order for stocks and index to go up they must
first take out prior day range correct? Anyway, I gave the
reclaim level (5558) multiple times yesterday and led to a $30 move
overnight. Bulls want to reclaim breakdown zone (5596/98)
and if accepts can move up further to upside targets with Main
above 5700 (5703-5221)

Plan working on ES - coming up on the first main zone to test
(breakdown area). These are zones to watch for possible fades
(shorts)
Keeping it simple, ES lost 5558 (after multiple tests) and then
backtested from underneath and failed pushing prices lower.
Bulls need to reclaim 5543 and 5558/63 or expect bears to
remain in control

ES from support (5560) to initial target zone 5600s - trim and
trail. NQ stronger today. I have some projects that I
must address so will be back later.

How fitting! With Matt's reference to the market being
"Bloody", The Blood Moon will be here in 2 days.
The blood moon, or total lunar eclipse, will occur overnight on
March 13 and into the early morning of March 14, 2025. The totality
phase, when the moon appears red, will last approximately 65
minutes.
ES down into some decent support around 5648/42 for today and
losing 5638 takes it down another zone with stronger support down
around 5582/5535 (Prior Post)
Lost this support zone and working lower as stated - larger
support zones 5582/35 with 5568/55 in the middle over the next few
days
Bulls will need to recover that support zone 5640s to get any
upside squeeze attempt - must reclaim and hold and build above and
then 5673 (remember that level). Have repeatedly stated the
Bears have control
Kevin - 5673 was a longstanding target to be reached on ES as
one can clearly see in the sticky post above - the target was 5673
and yesterday's low was 5673. Also read below that all the
various resistance zone the bulls must reclaim to even consider new
highs. After reaching 5673, bulls now have an opportunity for some
upside so let's see how they perform.
Short term ES left a wick on the NFP below at 5736 losing 5750
may target - this is very fluid and avoid unless able to adjust.
Simply sharing levels.
One must ADAPT to the current market - this is NOT last year
where one just bought momentum and made money (many just lucky as
they really had no methodology or plan nor did they take time to
research fundamentally the crap they were purchasing)
ES remaining below 5838/42 keeps downside pressure intact with
5705/5650 larger zone target in coming days (lines up with Wyckoff
target in place for last two weeks). Bears remain in full
control with level to level trading with 5858 being key level and
then backtest strong zone 5875/83.
ES rejected 5838/42 multiple times overnight with the most
recent drop taking ES back to 5797 (initial support). Level
to level trading with bears retaining control below major levels
5842 and 5875/83
As posted Bears retain control below 5875/83 and overnight
lost 5849 support and continued lower slicing levels with next at
5774 and lower side likely after breaking 5797 key support posted
yesterday. Bull need to reclaim 5798 and build
above
What has just transpired in ES/SPX is a core setup I trade
(failed breakdown and recovery of lost pivot) We lost 5856 (on
news) and then recovered and now +35 on that reclaim.
ES did get a slight reaction at 6058 but bulls have the ball
with support zones below 6047/43 and 6034. Stronger zones
above are 6083/87 and 6094 if 6065/72 is cleared and ATH still
possible key support areas holding. Level to level for
now
ES technically lost support at 6127 on the 2nd test as the tape
bombs provided a catalyst for a strong sell - ES was unable to
reclaim any levels on the selloff on Friday keeping us on the
defensive. We have to trade the hand we are dealt.
ES rejected 6047/55 zone and took the wick at 6017 - NVDA and
Semis in particular and with Utes (tied to powering AI)
weighing on market. Very fluid and my style is to lock
down gains until evidence changes. Nothing easy as market
attempts to digest this news - likley good for SAAS startups who
could bulid/lever off that platform.
ES 6033 gave a quick drop of 20 points (NQ much more and my
target for a fade) and then ES held support and now testing next
zone. For further downside, bears would need to lose
6004
Quick note: Key zones above 5992/96 and 6004/08 likely to
see a reaction - watch for trade shorts for temporary pullback.
Above 6008 (accepting) or holding 5927/07 and main support
5875/45 on pullback would support the Wave 4 thesis and then work
our way up to new highs in Wave 5
To summarize - we saw SPY/QQQ move up into DAILY SUPPLY early on
today then fade. If you look at ES you will see that
5918 was the breakdown level from Friday and noted resistance zone
today which rejected for 75+ points down to highlighted support at
5845 and now a 30+ point bounce back to the initial zone above
5878/82 trail up stops on runners. Bulls held the line at ES
5845 posted several times today.
You're welcome - nice day today catching the 75+ point decline
and now a nice bounce off strong support level noted several times
5845. Lock down some gains here with CPI tomorrow - trail up
stops if you have a runner. Damn nice day
Overnight ES rejected 6036 and then fought hard to reclaim 6026
but failed and started to drift lower. Then it lost shelf
support around 6005 and accelerated lower. Key support zone
5942/35 and 5922
NOTE: ES has now rolled from December (ESZ2024) to March
(ESH2025). All levels are now March and will be going forward.
December expires at the end of the week.
ES failed 6053 moved down 10 points then failed at zone above
6060 - bulls need to reclaim to get any traction. Remain
defensive on the indexes until that time.
Quick rejection at 5907 - I have some projects to work on today
so will be following in the background. Many trades here
already since yesterday close.
Bulls still holding support zone 5887/92 - OPEX tomorrow below
5878/75
If it pops up again tomorrow - keep any eye out for an ending
diagonal on 15/30 minute charts as one possibility. Dips to be
bought barring a break of structure.
One must adjust to new developments like I posted on China early
last evening. All these flows make an impact on assets. Big pop on
$HSI and Commodities with some trickle down in equities, especially
off stated ES SUPPORT
The hard landing we've already been in for many months (8%
deficit to achieve 2.5% growth = hard landing)? Maybe EL will
work, but it doesn't have the pole position on a Gov trough like
the ones that have tended to perform really well during these times
(unless I'm missing their Gov contracting business arm).
Actual missile launch will probably result in another record
high in SPX today.
How does price keep going up with all the bad data (this
mornings data set was another train wreck across the board) plus
all the geopolitical worries? Because the dollar is being
diluted so it takes more dollars to buy the same assets even though
the assets now have less value.
ES bounce off 5788 zone and testing again now, IF lost and gets
loose could see 5773 with minor support at 5785. On a bounce,
5798/5803 topside level bulls need to reclaim
SPX traded in a narrow range for about 2 weeks before an
impulsive sell lower on Tuesday - from contraction comes expansion.
As pointed out on Thursday, the market structure remained
bearish following Tuesday's BOS (Break of Structure).
Bears in Control until ES 5475/82 reclaims. ES has now
retraced approximately 50% of the previous advance. Demand
zone 5394-5319 shown below along with certain Fibs
This count becomes less probable on a break of 5300 (one
other option would be price carving out a triangle if it remains in
a range). Onus on the bulls short term.
ES decent bounce overnight after initial test of demand zone
after hours on Friday (5397-5320) - moved up into broad supply zone
(5560-5670 with key zone 5572-90)
On the smaller time frames, ES broke above previous high (5430s)
creating a BOS (break of structure) as did NQ so that is
constructive against Friday lows on any pullbacks
A weak market would hold below the support area, now
resistance, at
5435 to
5445, while failure to do so could trigger a false
breakdown. The outlier risk to the downside is the unfilled gap at
5385.25.
Quick pop after ES recovered 5400 - trail up if playing (scale
and trail as this is wild) 5414 resistance (previous support
posted) then 5438 and big at 5450
Posted by DigiNomad on 1st of Aug 2024 at 07:40 pm
Bears better watch out for QE. It's not if, it's just when at
this point. We could already be in it (some signs) but the next
step would be to admit it so they get a bump more quickly from the
accelerating debasement of the currency. Either way, assets can't
stay down that long when they really kick the debasement way way
past emergency mode. We've already been in emergency mode since
2020. I don't know what you call levels above emergency stimulus
mode, but that's where we're heading.
*note that one part of the QE strategy is to reduce yield on
bonds not just to stimulate borrowing...because they want to force
people out of bonds and farther into the risky equities side of the
risk curve. It's very possible this move down in yields is
being assisted by QE. They get the cuts that way without actually
cutting (the overnight rate they control is almost meaningless in
terms of real business).
ES came down into support zone - sloppy action into quarter end.
They ran those equal highs and reached big zone on ES
5577/82 and profit taking took hold.
Posted by DigiNomad on 28th of Jun 2024 at 11:42 am
April 1st of the current quarter (ending today) was the start of
a rough patch. Money managers are forced to close their eyes and
chase if they're behind (if they want to stay employed) so if it's
been a bullish quarter you can expect some chasing into the close.
The thing is that many don't want to be in the high flyers at
current valuations, so they run away as soon as the market opens in
the new quarter to wait for better prices. Cycle begins again and
squeezes into quarter end. Rinse, repeat.
*The word on the street with the people that follow the
seasonal charts closely is that it doesn't get more bullish than
the 1st two weeks of July. Most seem to think we will get seasonal
election year weakness, but not until the second half of July,
maybe even August. We'll see. I'm not a huge fan of seasonals
myself. Is it deficit spend at 7% of GDP season? Yes? Game
on.

When I asked ChatGPT how much NVDA's market cap increased today
a couple hours ago, not only did it say 277 billion....it went on a
freaking sell side rant about why the increase was appropriate. I
had to hit the "interrupt" button to stop the sales pitch.
Our newAI overlord is on the NVDA bull train (shocker?)....so
this could be a rare buy opportunity.
Short term - ES (September) possible smaller degree wave iv but
bulls must move from here as this is invalidated below 5450 and
losing morning lows would be a warning. New supply zone
formed overnight 5497-5510
Tricky here and one reason we haven't added much to watchlist -
remain nimble
Posted by DigiNomad on 14th of Jun 2024 at 02:26 pm
Seemed to be a reaction off of session VWAP. Might checkback
here, form a higher low and do the standard push into the close.
What's the saying? Something like: Joe's trade the open but pros
trade the close. The pros know Janet has no leash right now and is
trying to buy an election. Good luck getting in front of Fed
contract after contract after contract to NVDA, GOOG and the rest
of the bunch.
*checkback was complete by the time I wrote 4 sentences
TradingView ES - remember earlier I said if we lost that support
around 5305 there was an air pocket to the next support zone range,
that's one reason price dumped hard was losing that support,
tagging the upper part of that next support zone here at the
lows
Posted by abcdzhirt123 on 22nd of Apr 2024 at 02:35 pm
Thanks Steve, I was just thinking where the target should be.
What is your experience on how far back we should set stops
and trail? I want to protect from a shart decline but also
don't want to lose much of what's been gained. Thanks
for all your guidance and mentorship, you have a great gift for
this.
You should devise and follow your plan depending upon one's risk
tolerance. One thing to consider, is to lock in some gains
to protect and offset the emotional swings - when you have some
gains locked down, it allows for more freedom on the balance.
But again that's YOUR choice.
ES appears like 5 waves down off the 5333 high (currently
testing initial zone 5275-63 and if lost next down5257 then
5248-33) so we have to on the lookout for bounce from such
zones
and remember Quad Witch tomorrow when you have events like that,
the market typically doesn't trend in one direction but will chop
around and fake you out
Approximately 70 points lower for SPX currently - will adjust
down daily slightly - you should have access to SPX Futures Quotes
As aTrader to Track Overnight Action
Posted by DigiNomad on 8th of Mar 2024 at 10:31 am
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.
Cleared initial hurdles keeping the bounce/rally intact. ES
5120/25 next zone generally speaking...still open to possibility of
retest or new highs as discussed last night. Tricky here so for me,
level to level with the QQQ structure one such factor.
Yesterday after the close, ES retraced into resistance posted
(4992/5000) and retraced down to initial target zone 4970
(overnight low 4972.50) where dip buyers were willing to purchase.
Now they need to build higher to sustain.
Plenty of news on the docket for today with NVDA the big driver
after the close.
ES has moved up as expected (see yesterday's comments) and has
achieved the first zone by reaching 4590 with the next zone just
above 4600 as the main target mentioned yesterday.
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.
By the way, the same comments apply to many stocks like TSLA -
just look at those 5 minute candles - who can trade that
shit? No reason to force trades.
yep exactly. If you have a scalp system where you have defined
strategy fine that is structured then great go for it. For swings,
gotta be very picky - the one new long I put out on Wednesday DGX
was a great trade - but I only added 1 idea, kept it very
simple
This is not an easy market so PROTECT and LOCK DOWN gains - no
reason to be greedy with entire position - can keep a runner but
always protect with trailing stops
Posted by DigiNomad on 18th of Oct 2023 at 03:12 pm
I have access through at least 3 or 4 platforms I use, but I
don't track it any more because I try to keep my screen de
cluttered / focused and it's not a product I trade. I should
probably at least add it to a watchlist again so I can refer to
your levels.
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 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
Now 30+ points for that Bull trap (divergent high). It's
a hit and run market of late - for swings have to ride through the
chop add weakness with stops
Yes - ES up 25+ points from support so trail up - just because
it moves into supply is not a reason to short without a valid
trigger (it's just a zone that bulls need to overcome)
ES resistance now 4420/22 (will need to reclaim and build or be
weary of failed move today). Was a nice sale early today as
posted pre-market. Wave 4s are not easy to trade.
I was on watch for a failed move as posted earlier - notice the
false break on the SPX 4385.85 vs 4385.46 (they trap the late
buyers providing liquidity)
See my comments from earlier on the false break AND resistance
levels (click next to the arrow for the stream)
ES reached next target zone overnight (made a higher high and
now we have 5 higher subwaves for larger wave 3 in toe so on watch
for a wave 4 pullback under the view posted yesterday). Let's
see what CPI has in store
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?
Just getting my blood work done - see that ES moved 70 points
off that support level (that was the low on the initial pullback).
Big time squeeze - well done fellas
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 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.
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 have you considered adding NQ, I know you did give some
levels a week ago. Next question:- Have you ever looked at the
weekly levels? Could they be useful for the longer term trader.
I only have so much time to review these things so I will
attempt to post when I have time to review. ES will remain
the focus along with the SPX and QQQ
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).
ES next potential target area 4555/64 if wants higher...nice
bounce from support (4515/20) so trim and trail. Some
resistance right around here to clear (4545)
ES into that zone I posted after the pullback (40 points on the
lift)..
now protect profits. This has been a
fantastic trading day on ES with those levels
Posted by 2schnauzers on 27th of Jul 2023 at 09:30 am
Can you please add futures to the KISS tables?
I trade primarily futures /ES /NQ /CL etc. it would be great if
you could add these along with the interest rate and foreign
currency and agricultural. You must be generating them to display
the ES daily stuff. Thanks!
again we need to finish other projects like the automatic email
for set favorites. We can add a column eventually for some select
futures, or maybe I can simply add ES and NQ and YM to the the SPX,
Nasdaq, and Dow table - for now I'll simply do that
Posted by donkeyface on 28th of Jul 2023 at 08:14 am
I'd love KISS for like 2min charts and 10min... gimme some LTFs

LOLOL... thanks as always, this was great addition.
Posted by donkeyface on 8th of Jul 2023 at 07:34 am
You’ve probably addressed this before… how are you getting these
ES levels? Is it manual or is there an indicator?
Also you guys could package up your Tradingview Indicators
and sell them?!? Thanks
Squeeze big time - think of all those massive short positions
waiting for the economy to soften harder and EPS estimates to
ratchet down faster. They may prove right, but they are too
early.
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.
wow I managed to buy that bottom when SPX testes the 50 SMA on
the 5 min - I got into MES via the 2 min Heiken Ashi chart - I'm
really liking those Heiken Ashi bars lately for trading MES on -
triggered off the small doji
anyway lucky buy - now we'll see what happens the rest of the
day.
on the gap up I was wondering if it would turn into a trend day
but you don't get pullbacks like that on a trend day, and now price
has retraced more than 1/2 of that decline, so we'll see what
transpires
On ES Weekly level of interest 4160 which holding above would
initially target prior highs at 4208. Below 4160 would first
target 4130. Weekly extremes 4060-4265
These are simply some Weekly levels - will fill in with daily
levels in the table above later.
also an objective long entry about an hr ago when the VIX closed
back inside its upper Bollinger Bands - nice trade on UPRO there,
again you have the tradingview chart to monitor
updated view of the 5 min VIX with UPRO - been giving amazing
intra day signals long and short- nice buy signal this
morning and nice short signals here earlier
FYI I updated that Tradingview chart from the Sticky ES levels
to the June contract. I've added the ES levels to the left chart, I
still have to add the TICK NYSE spike levels to the right chart
ES the previous level (prior three week balance low) of
4020/30 remains an important orderflow level - thus that will be a
good WEEKLY pivot to monitor with bulls in control above.

You definitely get more pop with long premium trades (buying
puts or calls) but I'm not smart enough to get both the direction
and timing right on a regular basis. I like that I can be wrong on
both direction and timing and still win with short premium trades
(that's why they are MUCH higher probability trades).
Posted by DigiNomad on 3rd of Mar 2023 at 01:54 pm
SPX bear
call spread - I
almost rolled this near the HOD, but didn't get touched (yet). I
have the roll teed up (Monday expiry, 4075/4100). I widened out the
spread a bit to achieve a credit on the roll at the level I felt
comfortable selling.
SPX poked
right through the 38.2 fib (4031) and now it seems to be
supporting. Tempting to go out to Tuesday expiry and sell the 4100
strike for $500 (61.8 fib is 4093).

Matt/Steve, any way you can implement a like button on posts?
There is a lot of good posts and I just want to give a thumbs-up
sometimes but no need to reply to them all. Just a thought, no rush
at all!
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?
Nice call Steve, I'm perking up now for a long trade, looking
for entry in pieces. I usually don't get all my pieces, though that
is a good thing. Lets see.
ES has formed higher highs and higher lows so as stated uptrend
remains intact until that changes. Prior low on ES was 3757
so if broken then you have confirmation of a trend change.
Demand zone for ES 3813-3777 with Supply zone 3898-3928
Great letter and work here, I appreciate you Steve. If it isn't
too much trouble, would you mind adding the demand zone and supply
zone to the ES Levels daily sticky post? This information really
helps me with considering where I will trade.
3,797 fills a gap, only one after that is 3,583, the main one
that concerns me if Oz let it drop at some point. No idea on
timing, I think pressure to the upside is more likely in a range
for a bit as you pointed out in the newsletter.
The wedge posted in chart 14 last night is close to breaking. It
had only 3 touches and not 5, so it should not. If it does break,
my target is near 3660. If it does not, I will do nothing and wait
for it to break. That is my plan. Feedback is welcome!
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.
Posted by pintopower on 28th of Sep 2022 at 04:52 pm
Just testing how to post a chart from Thinkorswim. Pink
lines are ending diagonal; yellow oval would be hypothetical 5th
touch and light blue lines would be the Target. Let's see if
this test works?!

Hi, Steve! I took SSO for long trade per system signal yesterday
and day before, and now wondering - is there a stop loss you
recommend? Do you announce stop loss when trades goes in the red? I
am still new to trading systems and trying to learn the underwater
currents. Thanks
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.
Updated levels above - the June-July trendline was lost late
yesterday after numerous tests and this has given way to additional
selling as one would expect.
Support zone 3853-63 (watching for a reaction here) then
3842
it was showing an exit up to a min before the close, however
just the slight dip at the last min caused it not to exit -
any slight follow up day on Monday it should exit
actually SPY Bull Exhaust may close out here! I entered very
nicely unlike some of the others and had the second entry yesterday
so this will be a nice gain. Others are staying long of
course
$SPX - Chart Link- again nice call by me on Wed
- even bottomed almost exactly where I projected.
anyway price at a bit of horizontal resistance, may pullback
some here but I think it eventually takes that out and price tags
the 9 EMA on the daily chart
$SPX - Chart Link- well I guess the scenario I
drew on Wednesday playing out
keep in mind, I did NOT adjust these dotted trendlines - the
projection I drew where it would make a slightly lower low with
MACD divergence then bounce playing out
Personally, as stated last night, not interested in shorting
(chasing down) but in order for stocks and index to go up they must
first take out prior day range correct? Anyway, I gave the
reclaim level (5558) multiple times yesterday and led to a $30 move
overnight. Bulls want to reclaim breakdown zone (5596/98)
and if accepts can move up further to upside targets with Main
above 5700 (5703-5221)

Top Down Approach Discussion and how to View BPT
Posted by steve on 13th of Jun 2020 at 01:48 pm
Markets are fluid and subject to change as we all know - key is to establish a methodology that fits with your beliefs. You can also incorporate a hybrid approach with your portfolio by position investing certain funds for longer term (accepting volatility until EVIDENCE changes) and dedicating other funds to short term trading. Those are decisions for each individual. If you have yet to formalize an investing/trading approach please take some time to formalize a template - you can always adjust but it's best to have something in place. From there, you should formulate a PLAN that entails your objectives. Once a plan is in place, then you can refine down to which specific securities you want to invest and/or trade. This is a TOP DOWN approach that should be enacted PRIOR to looking for trades. Just like a Football team(or any sports team) - the General manager has a vision/approach on how he/she wants to build a team. Then he/she hires a coach to devise a scheme around those players to maximize their talents. Next, the coach puts into place a weekly game plan (making necessary adjustments) before finally selecting specific plays.
How does BPT come into this picture? Think of BPT like a consultant/assistant coach who helps to make your job easier along the way. We provide daily analysis of several markets which helps to provide some guidance as to how we see things. We also spend a considerable amount of time providing tips and educational examples to help execute you plan. Think of the DVT approach for swing trades and the nightly discussion of charts involving patterns and candlesticks, etc. We also scan for and offer trade suggestions (ideas) that we believe are valid setups and we take time to review the triggered setups in the following days. Partake in only the ideas that fit into your plan and simply ignore ones that don't. Finally, we spend time posting relevant comments and numerous charts every day in the trading community relating to what transpiring during that trading session and updating trade ideas.

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!

ES remaining below 5838/42 keeps downside pressure intact with 5705/5650 larger zone target in coming days (lines up with Wyckoff target in place for last two weeks). Bears remain in full control with level to level trading with 5858 being key level and then backtest strong zone 5875/83.

Actual missile launch will probably result in another record high in SPX today.
How does price keep going up with all the bad data (this mornings data set was another train wreck across the board) plus all the geopolitical worries? Because the dollar is being diluted so it takes more dollars to buy the same assets even though the assets now have less value.

Posted by steve on 7th of Sep 2024 at 10:56 am
SPX traded in a narrow range for about 2 weeks before an impulsive sell lower on Tuesday - from contraction comes expansion.
As pointed out on Thursday, the market structure remained bearish following Tuesday's BOS (Break of Structure).
Bears in Control until ES 5475/82 reclaims. ES has now retraced approximately 50% of the previous advance. Demand zone 5394-5319 shown below along with certain Fibs
This count becomes less probable on a break of 5300 (one other option would be price carving out a triangle if it remains in a range). Onus on the bulls short term.

ES decent bounce overnight after initial test of demand zone after hours on Friday (5397-5320) - moved up into broad supply zone (5560-5670 with key zone 5572-90)

Bears better watch out for
Posted by DigiNomad on 1st of Aug 2024 at 07:40 pm
Bears better watch out for QE. It's not if, it's just when at this point. We could already be in it (some signs) but the next step would be to admit it so they get a bump more quickly from the accelerating debasement of the currency. Either way, assets can't stay down that long when they really kick the debasement way way past emergency mode. We've already been in emergency mode since 2020. I don't know what you call levels above emergency stimulus mode, but that's where we're heading.
*note that one part of the QE strategy is to reduce yield on bonds not just to stimulate borrowing...because they want to force people out of bonds and farther into the risky equities side of the risk curve. It's very possible this move down in yields is being assisted by QE. They get the cuts that way without actually cutting (the overnight rate they control is almost meaningless in terms of real business).

April 1st of the current
Posted by DigiNomad on 28th of Jun 2024 at 11:42 am
April 1st of the current quarter (ending today) was the start of a rough patch. Money managers are forced to close their eyes and chase if they're behind (if they want to stay employed) so if it's been a bullish quarter you can expect some chasing into the close. The thing is that many don't want to be in the high flyers at current valuations, so they run away as soon as the market opens in the new quarter to wait for better prices. Cycle begins again and squeezes into quarter end. Rinse, repeat.
*The word on the street with the people that follow the seasonal charts closely is that it doesn't get more bullish than the 1st two weeks of July. Most seem to think we will get seasonal election year weakness, but not until the second half of July, maybe even August. We'll see. I'm not a huge fan of seasonals myself. Is it deficit spend at 7% of GDP season? Yes? Game on.

Good luck getting in front of Fed contract after contract after contract to NVDA, GOOG and the rest of the bunch.

You should devise and follow
Posted by steve on 22nd of Apr 2024 at 02:38 pm
You should devise and follow your plan depending upon one's risk tolerance. One thing to consider, is to lock in some gains to protect and offset the emotional swings - when you have some gains locked down, it allows for more freedom on the balance. But again that's YOUR choice.

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.

Yesterday after the close, ES retraced into resistance posted (4992/5000) and retraced down to initial target zone 4970 (overnight low 4972.50) where dip buyers were willing to purchase. Now they need to build higher to sustain.
Plenty of news on the docket for today with NVDA the big driver after the close.

Steve just to confirm, the supply you're talking about for the SPX is shown on your 30 minute chart from last night starting around 4365?

Posted by steve on 13th of Oct 2023 at 08:53 am
Yes - ES up 25+ points from support so trail up - just because it moves into supply is not a reason to short without a valid trigger (it's just a zone that bulls need to overcome)

Posted by DK on 12th of Oct 2023 at 08:55 am
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?
Yes watch yields for reversal

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.

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.

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.

SPX poked right through the 38.2 fib (4031) and now it seems to be supporting. Tempting to go out to Tuesday expiry and sell the 4100 strike for $500 (61.8 fib is 4093).

3,797 fills a gap, only one after that is 3,583, the main one that concerns me if Oz let it drop at some point. No idea on timing, I think pressure to the upside is more likely in a range for a bit as you pointed out in the newsletter.

The wedge posted in chart 14 last night is close to breaking. It had only 3 touches and not 5, so it should not. If it does break, my target is near 3660. If it does not, I will do nothing and wait for it to break. That is my plan. Feedback is welcome!

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.

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.

Posted by steve on 14th of Mar 2025 at 09:28 am
Personally, as stated last night, not interested in shorting (chasing down) but in order for stocks and index to go up they must first take out prior day range correct? Anyway, I gave the reclaim level (5558) multiple times yesterday and led to a $30 move overnight. Bulls want to reclaim breakdown zone (5596/98) and if accepts can move up further to upside targets with Main above 5700 (5703-5221)
