    $SPX - Chart Link - updated view, nice trade! On the initial break of the triangle, or ....on the pullback that resulted in the MA ribbon pinch/squeeze

    $SPX - Chart Link - updated move now day trade long, I've scaled out of some but I also move my stop up progressively

    UPRO - Chart Link - nice trade - if you took UPRO on the MA pinch following the break out of the pattern you got a buck, with 1000 shares that's nice

    typically this is how I trade those 5 min setups - I use my BPT MA stuff to trail the stops up. also notice on that 3 min chart when the resistance cycle was broken it became support.  You can see when the BPT MA goes red to green I just move the stops up progressively, have been long since that MA pinch on the 1 pm time frame

    but without all that the 5 min UPRO or SPX standard Stockcharts.comprovided you a NICE trade today long from mid day

Thanks in advance.

    The easiest and best way

    The easiest and best way to calculate is take the call and put option value in weeklies closest to current price (delta of 50) in earning week and add them will give you expected move. It looks like AAPL has it around $14. 

    thanks very much vsunil, i

    thanks very much vsunil, i will look to see what i can do with it. I appreciate your input as i thought tos has an expected move calculator or IVR with their site but not sure how to get it.


    Do you own the stock, as i hear people very bearish on it in longer term and also expect just mild upside and then sell off.


    If Matt/Steve can put in the FAMG stocks to study for this coming week, that would be great...Its what's holding up the market so far and we won't see much sell off if they continue to be big leaders and no rotation out to other sectors

    Useful prompt.  Entered long June ES at 2791 with a 2778 stop.......just exited at 2819.  Not used to having such a wide stop.

    People getting sucked into the wave now.   Watch out for the undertow they used to say to me as a kid when at the Ocean beach.

    That H & S set up on the SPX  30min chart looks promising now
