It's important to zen out w a sport, imho: I spend most of my
summer weekends chasing lower lap times at my local track w a great
group of friends. Weekdays after the close: dirt time on the
KTM.
NVDA - Steve and Matt, Thank you for your previous commentary.
Swing and day traded NVDA for a total of 40 of the last 53 points,
since recent lows. Your thoughts on what possible moves may
transpire next would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,
Hi Steve/Matt, would you please have another look at NVDA? I've
been long since $418. Looks like it could get to the 20DMA, which
is also around 32% retrace of that last big wave down from 8/30.
Likely capped today considering the large $440 call open interest.
Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks much
Steve/Matt, It would be greatly appreciated if you would please
provide your technical analysis on NVDA - is it potentially
entering a wave 4 bounce on the daily? Thanks much
As you all know the trading day following a big up day is
usually down. Some statistics for your reference: Over the last 25
years, 87% probability of today being a down close versus
yesterday’s close on SPX. This is also true of many markets and
stocks: TSLA 70% probability of a down day, today.
Ronald Reagan: Government's view of the economy could be summed
up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving,
regulate it. And if it Stops Moving, Subsidize it.
Matt, Paying attention to what you said about the fish and the
fisherman, think QQQ has trouble getting through 334.43? reaction
in other direction, or stick w the trend day? - Thanks, Fish

Real Simple: in advanced options for Windows Update, just turn
off "restart" and/or "pause" updates for up to 35 days, and just
set a reminder on your calendar to re-pause every ~30
days.
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.
I believe it was the fastest rate hike by FED in history,
certainly fastest in modern era. Your suggestion that they raise
even faster in a bigger way would have been too much of a shock to
the system, in FED's view, although Gundlach and others
wanted faster than they did - that is all supposition at this
point, anyway - now it's history.
Fed Funds now higher than inflation - the Fed's goal has now
been achieved - big milestone. If inflation stays level, or
declines, that means the end of rate hikes, and pause is set in
stone.
as a follow up to purchasing the call spread, if you think the
measured move is all that there will be, you could also consider
buying a butterfly, where the short call strikes are at the
measured move. this would be cheaper than buying a call
spread, but also provides less upside.
