    LOL that's always the million

    LOL that's always the million dollar question. Since the short term MA's have such a strong slope I like to be aggressive in taking profits on a good dump day. That said it's early, will price bounce back from here, or could this turn into one of those -90 point down SPX days, not sure yet, have to play it by ear

    and of course once symmetry is broken - then that's more evidence at some sort of top. Remember we've been in this 5th wave move for the last week, wasn't much blood left in the turnip

    SPX symmetry 112 points, SPX needs to go below 4935 to break symmetry

    QQQ symmetry 17.6 points is symmetry - QQQ needs to go below 421.5 to break symmetry

    for now both SPX and QQQ's bounced off their channel lines

    Thanks good food for thought
