    note, the stops on the SPY breakout moving up slightly again:  SPY moves up about 60 cents to 601.82, SSO moves to 97.86, and of course we have the open MESH25 Trend/Pullback long

    Has the SPY system stopped out or is EOD?

    looks like the stop is end of day -it's currently  showing an exit for the close.  if folks had a hard stop they would be out anyway

    I always forget that stop is close not intra day - there's like 6 type of stops in that thing, this one happens to be at the close

    So I guess the stats

    So I guess the stats will show an EOD stop out, even though intra day stop was hit?

    I am assuming or at

    I am assuming or at least hope the vast majority set hard stops and were stopped out an hr ago since I stated they were stops and never specified closing stops, in fact I thought they were hard stops myself

    I emailed out this message - and there will be new mean reversion systems triggering today but I have to wait for this carnage to settle out after the close to confirm anything

    -------------

    Hello everyone, I would say happy Wednesday but that's not the case for the market, the market has cratered following the FOMC.  Honestly, things were so stretched and the horrible negative breadth from the last couple weeks finally coming home to roost.

    That said, the SPY breakout system is closing out. Those stops I've been updating you on daily were blown through earlier today. If you had set hard stops, that's great, you would have closed out the trade an hr ago at much higher prices.  The Stops are actually for a closing basis on the SPY breakkout system, therefore it's closing out today at the close. However, since I didn't specify that, and I thought these were hard stops at first, I assume or at least hope that most of you had simply set hard stops and have been out of the trade. Even so, even closing out at the closing prices, the trade is still profitable. 

    On another note - we should see a second entry on the ES Trend/Pullback system. 

    It also looks like the SPY Trend/Pullback will take a 1st entry, as well as the QE BTS system. However I need to let this setting out, and wait for the close to confirm everything.

    Where is the stop on
