Steve, do you view this

    SPX 5 and 10 with Fibs

    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 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.
