Totally agree with your viewpoints. Being glued to a screen all
day is not in the cards for me either, however, I do check in
frequently during the day to see what the market is doing. I
put in lowball orders for my core portfolio at fibs, trendlines,
etc.
I also sold about 80% of my core in the much higher areas and
have added some back, general cost basis 4180 ish spx. The
commentary on this site has helped me immensely stay in tune with
the market. I am still only 40% back into my core holdings. I sell
calls at about 10 days out, 20 to 30% chance of in the money to
milk more from these positions and of course enjoy the dividends. I
rarely short because it's so tricky.
I believe in simplicity, mainly from experience of holding an
individual stock position in the past and having it sit or go down
while the market rallies, so now I stick to the ETF's and leveraged
ETF's. It's also so much easier to technically read the SPX
vs a specific name that can take a dump on you with a news story
out of left field.
I also love the SPY/ES system because, it gives me the extra
spark to enjoy the big swings in the market and feel like a
participant. With it's stats and with my own tweaks that has
been a vacation fund! I think this system is a lot of fun even when
it experiences drawdown. Followed religiously, especially
those third signals, it really pays off!
I love the educated participants on this blog and realize it's a
real gem as there are not any other sites for true traders that I
have found. CNBC, Cramer, et al I view as talking heads that
need to fill content and on any given day you can get a number of
viewpoints mostly telling you what's already happened in the
market. It just serves to confuse me.
There is my manifesto, happy trading and enjoy your day as
well!

I think Elliot Wave Principle by Frost and Prechter is probably the bible on EW and pretty good education on fibs as well.

I wouldn't call it a fail yet, possibly just consolidating gains like Matt predicted?
I took profits early too though, realizing the tough environment we are in. Enjoy your weekend!

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out. SPY on 15 min looks like a cup and handle.

Interesting with the bearish skew but the ABC look to the pullback on the shorter timeframes.
