Friday thoughts

401
ES hit the 1396.50, near 1396, b4 4:15pm

354
1396 es trgt by 415pm if setup works,not trading it

351
[15:51:02] GAP analysis evaluates to gap down on monday, using method i use
  15:51:21] only 1 indicator, i dont base trades on the gap analysis

340
1398 and 1394 es mini supports

331
some stocks are up on really low volume, ex intc appears lower ratio than spy

330
this resis break higher imo has converted ES from a daily downtrend to neutral sideways, not to an uptrend, if u look back at candels to march 13

329
"technically" ES has broken OVER RESISTANCE but imo this kind of breakout isnt buyable long, the pb may be buyable if its not too intense and then gets smaller candles,,,maybe know more next week

324
intc is moving lower now a bit,weaker than es spy on 3min charts

247
AAPL keeps testing this support area, at the 1.3% gain level (quick swing not multimonth swing, 2 diff trades),,,, it looks breakable. one could lock profits here, tighten stop, or let it ride. on the remaining shares (25% large port, 100% small port) i am letting it ride for now, with no set stop atm.

1115
its taking awhile, but still think DBA swing long is buyable here, poss 10% move higher

1111
first 15min red candle intc, bounced, trying to short this second 15min red candle, also part of the strat

1109
will see,,,intc at gap resist now, gap down from earning,,lookiung for retest of those earning lows, tho this is a bit early and retest sometimes comes days weeks later

1104
shorted intc here, added to existing positino

1040
new long gdx, will exit today if it moves higher, else may swing

1030
as of yest, out of CHRW short,,,looking to re-enter again sometime, not yet,,,traded short several times swing, for transport sector

1013
[10:12:18] i reset stops back to same as yest: AU 33.88, AGQ 49.93... same price, but i often cancel the stop orders at the open and then re-eval, so as not to be prematurely stopped, tho today they didnt come close to stops, one never knows
[10:12:57] those are hard stops, for now, i might exit sooner, at a diff price, hard stops in place in case of sudden move, both the miners and the metals phys can make v fast moves

1005
other day, someone asked what dark cloud cover was: if daily DE closes today around 82 or lower, would be dc cover...gap up, red candle, close halfwayish prior day

957
[09:57:20] larger positions in quick swing aapl, could take half off here again, after doing so yest then re-shorting yest to full position, same place, 1.25% small gain
 [09:57:36] small port---i'm holding the aapl quick swing thru this, for lower

PCLN, my ill timed short there is stinging now, but i'm holding it for now, and will look at exiting later

932
 aapl has actualy gapped down, despite ES and NQ up

921 am
 it could be choppy from 930--1000-1030am, and we may have a livlier friday than usualy today. ES SPY may see a move lower and then quickly higher again as it chops around
