Steve, do you view this last marginal new low at 1:30 p.m. as a
possible 5th wave (on a 15 min chart)? I am clinging tightly
to your mantra about waiting for an oversold bounce, and am
wondering how you view the decline so far, i.e. in terms of a wave
count.
frtaylor - haven't had a chance to break down squiggles for wave
structure but the last push down has resulted in some positive
divergence on the SPX 5-15 minute time frames.
I pointed out yesterday that the SPX had a late afternoon bounce
that retraced 50% of the earlier decline.
right - I shorted yesterday's bounce using SSO and covered at
57.35 today. I'm actually long w/ a pretty small SSO position
from 57.25, stop at 57. To my untrained eye, I can see (or
imagine?) a 5-wave structure off the high at SPX 1422.

That is an objective entry

That is an objective entry so simply trail stops up and see what the bounce will give you.
Okay - I'll pm you

Okay - I'll pm you guys about how to trail a stop effectively. For now I've moved it to 57.15, just below the low of the day.
