SPY bear long

    Posted by matt on 13th of Dec 2022 at 11:22 am

    I hope that quite a few here choose to lock in some ample gains either pre market or after the cash open on that SPY bear long.  150 point moves on ES in 5 min is something way way out of standard deviation. The system is a daily system and it's not going to be able to react to intra day moves like that - should be common sense, the daily systems are not built to react to things like that in the morning.

    I was super busy exiting as many of my longs as possible pre market and after the open, I didn't get a chance to email something out about the systems but hopefully some of you  elected to do so anyway on such a far out of the norm move

    Matt, I am still holding

    Matt, I am still holding my SPY put based on your 60 stochastic short. Could you please keep updating us on the progress of that trade in TS? For me 4100 on /ESZ22 is the line in the sand for the bull and bear case.  If we cannot close above 4100, we have a double top.

    yeah will do man for

    yeah will do man for sure. 

    some may have stopped out there with a hard stop - if not, though, one could decide now what to do with it. The daily system isn't changing anything so if the market were to go back to a high, that 60 Stoch would still stay short. So best to now imply some sort of stop  to not allow that just in case - but nice job not stopping out there, with the reversal -so you can breath easier on it now, but some sort of stop in place now makes sense

    Matt, I see a high-position

    Matt, I see a high-position size selling today (shown in blue) indicative of professional selling. It is the opposite of A moves on your charts, FWIW.

    thanks, I think I have

    thanks, I think I have that setting still in that indicator I use for the A's but it's turned off. I'll have to look at it again. 

    We have got a gap

    We have got a gap fill on /ES. This is bearish almost confirming a double top, IMO

    The range is unbelievable !

    The range is unbelievable !  Looks like they want to see Red today on the indices before the bounce.   I added to my March shorts this morning but also bought some longs on the way down ... my longs are taking a beating now.
