Why did I stay in SKF SRS?

Some quick notes. Many other reasons in addition to below. Will add more detail later but wanted to get this thought out there.

resistance was tested today in spx xlf...R held. prices started declining toward support, i expect further declines to test support once again in the coming hours / days.

xlf daily 3 lower highs
xlf 60 min 3 lower highs. rsi down. stoch newly oversold.

spx cannot hurdle the highs...rejected 5 times on daily

srs held support yest. poss dbl bottom daily. inside day. mMm daily. rising 60min stoch n rsi. bull diverg.


3 failed new high attempts...60min qqqq. the third failed attempt often results in downside plunge.

350
sh stop 5302

348
yes es 1100.25 hit trgt

338
es 1100 and 1096 trgt...1100 prob hold...last 1102...lower tomorrow

337
es 1100 trgt...think it will hod there. last 1103 es

335
srs woke up...at 796 R now

332
ES testing a hidden support here(from premkt)

330
spx 1108 target downside was hit...has held thus far but could easilyu break lower....

328
ES 1101 should cap it...hold expected

327
raising stops in the SH to 2 cents over cost....will exit it today...keeping srs skf overnight

323
again...imho... a close UNDER yesterdays low...very bearish

321
the skf is stretching for its next up target.... :)

320
if spx breaks low of day....could see fast 5point drop

319
i do not thinks this move down right here is a headfake.....but am watching for signs of it...think they couldnt get an upside headfake and this is part

316
the SPY candles are still def setup for poss bear morning star...multiday candle pattern,,,,just one of many indicators

314
poss 3min bull inv HS in spx...but i still see bias as down nonetheless

308
i think they will try a headfake up in spx,,,then down into the close...spx last 1109

304
yes...skf is over the 2512 at 2514...marginally but over....

255
SH SDS crouching tiger....bullish for them,,,,bear spy spx

254
SPY chartt suggests lower

212
skf is still behaving... will prob keep it as overnight swing.

142
skf 3min weakining....neeeds to breakout higher or risk 2483 down

138
scalpers will take SH profits at ES 1103 or spx 1108...last spx 1109

135
skf is at a ton of R here....R is holdingl...but suspecptible to breaking higher. charts suggest break higher, maybe not today, but easily could today.

131
looking for 5297 SH....last 5290...


129
25.14 close or higher in skf is bull skf, bear xlf finan. last 2511

127
charts continue to suggest higher skf lower xlf

126
looking for 1103 ES. last 1105
125
an spx close under 1107 would be bearish. thus far support holding tho....

124
possible breakdown in spx...changing from range day to trend down...

123
spx 1109...looking for 1108 test still

106
if skf can break and sustain 2514, it will have a bull dbl bot breakout on 3min skf with 25.77 target which is between prior highs at 25.61 and 25.97. so 25.61 might be it, or a stall there, on way to 25.77 then 25.97. this is all "maybe"....needs to breakout first.

101
but poss bear diverg setting up in skf 3min...suggests pullback could come...watching it....

100
2512 skf target finally hit.....watching for 2533. chart suggest stil more up in skf

1256
a sustained break of skf 25.14 should give skf 25.33. last 25.10

1255
still looking for higher SKF SH SRS

1254
no. i thought that a break of spx 1111 would trigger a quicker trip to 1108...it has not done that...1110 last.,...

1253
nervous SH would exit here for small profit or breakeven.... i'll stay in the daytrade

1248
yes! skf hit 25.10...2 cents from 25.12 target... at 12:47 .... right at the 12:47 estimate from this morn... how's that for timing :)

1244
if skf does not stall at 2512....bullish skf, bearish xlf spx...it should stall at the 2512 level

1242
srs is starting to wakeup and participate....

1240
skf 2512 next trgt...then 2537...last 2501

1236
YES. SKF is on schedule. at11:42: i mentioned skf is trying to break higher here, but charts suggest that it could chop around until 12:47 before it really makes a conclusive decision higher or lower. higher is bias for now.

1228
scalpers would take some profits here in skf at 24.98 HOD

1226
if spx breaks 1111 then 1108 next...last 1111.55
1225
grr srs still sluggish tho

1223
i still see higher skf today....lower xlf finan. it is following roadmpap very well thus far.

1207
yes. skf broke out of bull pennant when it hit .98,,,, is now backtesting it as expected...last 2489
1158
yes. skf hit 2498 target exactly and stalled, as expected. see if skf can hold 24.84 support now.

1156
a break under 1108 spx would setup lower highs, lower lows on 15min spx.

1154
spx 1112 last. may test 1108. the 1108 will prob bounce. must crack under 1108 to get downside momen. if 1108 cracks lower, could see 1102 fast, then 1097 (not necessarily all today, given that we are rangebound, for now)

1152
SH and SRS are lagging but ok for now....

1150
skf targets 24.98, 25.12, 25.41....interim targets later

1145
skf marg new HOD ....prob stall at 2498...last 2492

1142
skf is trying to break higher here, but charts suggest that it could chop around until 12:47 before it really makes a conclusive decision higher or lower. higher is bias for now.

1133
skf 60min bull pennant, 15min asc triangle, both suggest higher skf. last skf 24.84

1116
too early to tell now, but the SPY daily candles could present a bear eve star formation. If the SPY candles close similar to the way they are now, this would setup the possible bear formation. A Wedn close LOWER than today's low would be needed to confirm the eve star bear, if it forms.

1105
intraday, my charts still suggest higher skf and lower xlf finan. last skf 2479

1054
skf holding pretty well considering spx advance higher

1040
xlf down 1% vs spx down 0.23%...financials coould drag the spx down

1030
skf over 24.76 is bull crouching tiger 96^

1028
skf set to make new HOD... skf doing bettr than SH SDS

1017
1000 SH at 52.87 filled

1015
buy 1000 SH 5289 limit if filled.
1004
skf just hit .80 which is close to the .78 expected mini-pullback...seee if it holds .78/80

957
es break under 1104 could give 1100 quikly

955
ES just held the 1104 support on first test, expected. if 1104 breaks, 1100.  charts suggest 1104 will break

953
1min skf suggests possible 2478 from 2489...watching
950
skf hit 2489, one cent from first target of 2490...see if it stalls or not...stall expected....

943
expecting stalls in srs 808 and skf 2490 if they get there. still holding past those levels probably.

9:03
ES broke 1104 and hit 1102.25 and bounced to 1104 now. targets still same as below.

7:40
ES hit near 1104 and bounced to 1106. Now 1107 is next #...if it holds, back to 1104 else 1111.
A bounce would be expected on the first test of 1104 (which it did bounce to 1106).

7:19AM TUes
ES futures are now at 1105.50. They need to hold support at 1104 or risk 1100, 1096, 1088, 1085
es 1104 is impt support

If 1004 holds then expect 1107, 1111, 1113, 1119, which are important R numbers.

friday ramblings (and Thurs eve / Friday pre-market ES Futures)

411
Around 3pm I suggested we would close SPX at 1106 or lower. We closed close to this, at 1106.41. ES did not make the 1098 suggested, tho.

359
lol covered spy daytrade a breakeven... 3 cent profit

3:41
nervous spy shorts would cover here for breakevn...i will stay short

338
: spy hit my exact previous short limit 111.30 from 1:41pm
 
319
spy bear rising wedge mini in 3min

316
overall the collection of ES 60min candles is bearish, imho

312
ES 1098 still possible. last 1101

255
i think we close 1106 spx or lower today

224
SPY moved up a little since I shorted it, but did not get to my original level of 111.30,,,made 111.24 or 6 cents off, so far. Origianlly i had a limit to short at 111.30,,,,shorted lower .... its behaving thus far....

146
111.04 shorting the SPY now (ES at 1101, SPX at 1106)

141
SHORT 600 shr SPY 111.30 limit if filled

1328

1319
crosscurrents in qqqq...bull and bear signs both

1317

102

100
close to qqqq .21 first trgt....will hold until it breaks down

1240

1237
rsi bull failure swing in qqqq 3min also supporting the long scalp now...

1233

1209
also qqqq bull asc triangl 3min (and bull inv HS)

1207
qqqq have 94% bull crouching tiger....but contratrend so riskier

1205
iff qqqq do not behave here i will quickly exit... its a contratrend scalp riskier

1202
trying some qqqq scalp long here 1000 shrs at 4405 stop 4373 for now

1156
uso setting up nice bull diverg on 15min

1152
looking for spxu entry...not yet

1145
as i expected the qqqq plunged to 4403...and still falling...looks like 4391 or 4381

1100
skf likely will find some support at 2505 if it gets that low...last 2512

1058
for now,,for me, even if skf breaks todays low it is ok, it will just form a bull diverg which should pop it back up after its finished the chop.

1051
considering uso long...not yet...last 2547. uso might be building a base...i'll wait for at least the 15min to turn bullish on it

1044
qqqq must stay over 4430 else they break the coil in 15min. last 4436

1043
wow swing trading is soooo much easier than daygrading

1042
skf stragegy...daytrading the skf....keeping some as swing... will buy back any daytrades sold if merited

1039
skf is behaving...

1036
to me, chart suggest some chop here, slight upward bias but nothing i want to trade long, followed by lower levels in coming hours days....  could change to more bullish later,,,thats what i see now

1022
skf stop 2483 for now...

1021
skf bull cup handl 3min chart

1019
i will prob keep a piece of this skf for swing (skf is short financials)

1017

956
the inverse rel with dx us dollar and spx should return. this has also happened in the past with tlt vs spx...temp run together,,,,,eventually correct themselves

948
xlf is a nice short as long as it stays under 1450...looking for poss 1442 test, to short there if able. can short financials via skf or faz.

9:38
faz 2040 is a decent entry but i'll wait to see if it falls...should fall more... 1998 or 2009 possible

Fri 6:41 AM
ES futures have moved up nicely overnight, making a high thus far of 1105 and now at 1103.  They are acting as expected, increasing. There is a bearish divergence setting up, suggesting that the ES will "find" its high and then decline. When the pivot reversal occurs (make the high and then turns down) it will present an opp to short. 1107 1111 or 1119 are the "high" targets with 1111 the most likely (chart patterns suggest 1115 as most likely, levels suggest 1111). If 1101 does not hold, then the 1105 might have been "the high". Let's remember, though, that volume will increase at 8:35 AM and then again at 930 market open, which could cause a retest of that 1105, regardless of where the ES is at. Charts suggest that the 1101 will hold, unless a volume surge comes to press it lower and break it.

QQQQ bullish and bearish scenarios

1:02 AM friday update
Dow DIA and SPX SPY money flow suggests a pop up tomorrow (still expect lower prices in coming hours / days afterward).

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

The DOW and SP500 charts are more bearish than qqqq.

As they look now, I see the qqqq charts suggesting the bearish scenario. But there are mixed signals, and we need to await resolution. This is why I have no position, long or short.  Mr. Market needs to decide.

I anticipate entering new shorts in SPX or QQQQ tomorrow, but again, I'll wait for clearer chart definition.

QQQQ 60 min chart suggests some chop, possible a bounce up, followed by a break lower. Daily shoot star bearish. Possible evening star bearish candle pattern on Friday if it gaps down.

The daily QQQQ chart is more bullish. Stoch curled up. RSI minor R trendline break. Both need confirmation. QQQQ could be consolidating "up here" in a rectangle that breaks to upside.  Possible bullish ascending triangle.  If QQQQ can close over Thursday's high, it would be bullish.

But, daily chart also shows a bearish divergence.

2 charts below. 60min and daily.

Wednesday, December 9, 2009

Thurs ramblings (and Wednesday eve / Thurs morning pre-market ES )

359
sold the qqqq for small loss.......sold xlf for 10 cent loss

317
if qqqq does not rally today... i will prob keep a small daytrade piece, depending on close... still has some upside to it

246
there is selling today ....looks like institutions...could put a cap on the move up in qqqq past .50.  But, often, they will let off the selling some....as soon as that happens, then a pop up comes. then they sell more up there. because they have so many lots to sell, they cannot sell all at once.

230
1101 should get


some initial R and sellers....
 
then if es can get 1103 stops likely trigger for a pop to 1110/12


2222
trade in direction of breakout on narrow bollinger bands... wide ones are diff strategy

221
15min chart...qqqq .51 boll band R narrow with up rsi stoch suggests break higher over the .51

220
xlf recovering...tryin...

215
qqqqq mini up channle,,,asc triangle 3min chart

206
1107 spx projected

143
xlf still has that 15min bull diverg....which is one reason i tried it today...

132
qqqq 3min could form bull inv HS...not there now tho....maybe

127
nervous qqqq can exit here at breakeven...i'm staying in

123
qqqq atop 44.18

120
if qqqq can hang in again...a bull diverg will set up....

118
this is close...here the qqqq go again hanging by thread like yest...hit 4430 close to the 4429 i mentioned earlier....

108
when all this "noise" is filtered out of the charts, they suggest a pop up in qqqq spy.... but that noise just might trigger enough stops to cause a downward move instead

102
xlf needs to push rsi over 54 on 3min....;last rsi 42 pointing down

1258
spx bull inv HS 3min

1253
charts say qqqq should break over the .48....

1251
qqqq needs .48   .53   .60   .71

1250
qqqq trying to break a mild DTL now at .48

1247
as usual, qqqq behaving, xlf not...

1230
xlf and qqqq long are torturing me in this chop. the charts still say more upside in both.... hanging in here...

1216
could go to 4429 and still be ok long in qqqq...will seee

1215
qqqq is starting a pattern that usually goes down then up (then down later....)

1211
xlf 1434 is major intraday R....if it breaks higher, xlf should pop up to 1440 fast. of course if it holds then we have a dbl top type thing....

1208
nervous xlf willl exit here at this gift at .34....i'll stay awhile. why staying? large vol bar up on xlf

1144
poss bear hs dev in xlf 3min...watching....

1139
qqqq is in a bear rising wedge.... expecting pop then drop...wedge still has more room up... 60 min chart. drop might not come today, more likely on fri or mon tues

1133
roadmap being  followed thus far..qqqq 4450 to .45 ....should go for .60 then .71
 
1122
theres qqqq 4450 to 4445 now...see if 4445ish holds and goes up to .60 and .73

1122
xlf might decide to meander around in a narrow range here to form bull cup handle, preferably will just break higher

1121
qqqq next trgt 4471

1116
qqqq 4450 4445 4460 roadmap

1115
the 1112 expected breakout on xlf is a few minutes behind schedule, qqqq breaking on time.
1100
poss xlf break higher in 12minutes...last 1430.  malformed crouch tiger in xlf...99%

1059
spx 15min bull flag

1055
charts strongly suggest another pop up in qqqq. last 44.42

1053
DOW 10,445 might have been it, for this piece of rally...watching

1052
grr this xlf is behaving like my intc yesterday.... alsmot exact same behaviour...hope it rallies b4 i am stopped out. but hope is not a valid strategy...stops r set
 
1042
xlf looks bad at .29 but i'll hold on....charts suggest a pop up,

1041
qqqq 4450 stall and backoff was expected....needs to hurdle .56... chart say it will

1036
looks like xlf pos diverg 15min chart....chek it out..with macd hist rsi (pos diverg not bull diver--they r diff)

1028
97% crouch tiger bulll qqqq if stays over 44.40....last 4444

1024
xlf is dev a bull diverg that should pop them up....if it survives my stop at .23....might change to .14 or higher

1017
qqqq is behaving....xlf misconduct....

1009
below the market, buy 1000 shrs qqqq limit 44.37

958
qqqq hit .37 close to my .35 buy zone...waiting to buy some maybe

950
TRADE: trying some  xlf....2000 shrs at 1436... stop 1420 for now, will raise later. this is ONLY for a bounce, looking to short later today or tomorrow

943
xlf big bear shoot star 15min...will watch for recovery or not

942
qqqq at .50 are close to the 44.73 prior high...likely to test that....prob pull back to 44.35 then try for the .73....then maybe 45/45.50 at most, for now as i see it... the .73 could halt it for good...will watch

937
1463/66 should cap the xlf (if even gets that high

937
1111 should cap the sp500 rally

936
qqqq up but have not even tested the 44.73 yet... could overshoot that to 45.43 (dont think so)... charts still suggest a fall in qqqq in next 4 days

THURSDAY
9:00 AM
As I expected last night, futures are up this morning. Looking still for a move up in spx to a lower high, then down. could make 1103/1110.

Wedn 7:19PM
It looks like there is some limited unfinished business on the upside for SPX and QQQQ. Probably SPX will test its resistance at 1098/1100 (more exact numbers later). I'm not sure if it will go higher and break above resistance, but my work suggests that in any event a LOWER HIGH will be put in, and then the 1085 will be tested and then break lower (not all tomorrow).

Today, I was close to keeping some QLD (2x long the QQQQ) as well as FAZ (long faz to short financials) with the expectation of higher and then lower. But I abandoned both positions and locked in profits, in case the market surges higher (bad for faz) or plunges lower (bad for QLD).

I prefer to wait for better confirmation, since the SPX and QQQQ are trading in ranges and channels.

wedn ramblings (and Tues eve ES futures)

SUMMARY: Overall a good day, ended green (profits more than losses). Disappointed in my early exit from INTC (a loss) which later behaved as I expected and produced what would have been a profit. But, the INTC went past my lower limit, so I cut my losses as part of money management. Conversely, the QQQQ and QLD trades worked very well, although they were hanging by a thread at one point, and almost broke lower to test the LOD. But the QQQQ held around .65, and the pattern played out. (Details at 1:27 post and later about the QQQQ barely holding).



hmm....qqqq closed over yest hi...thats bullish.....but charts are confused with mixed signals

saving the last 25%


qld in case qqqqq wants .21 today
