Tuesday's ramblings

0356
look at HD 3 day candel.... big engulfing bullish candle today there

0351
taking the 2.8% profit in HD here on half of remaining shares, will hold other half

0347
stopped out of csco, breakeven there too, can always re-enter,,, still holding 2.8% profits in HD tho

0344
exiting this gold short,,,, for small loss, about 1/10 of 1%, near breakeven,,,, holding some HD overnight, might hold some csco overnite if not stopped out of csco

0324
HD hit over its target 3397,,, still holding it long

0247
there are the new ES high of days, expected earlier

0219
HD target is now 3392, as i take a few shares profits here into strength 3354 from 3310 cost,, saving other shares for more

0215
if MM want to be really nasty, they will break over the HD high from yest on first try...trying rite now,,,pennies away...

0212
GOLD has broken lower from its coil, moving up to backtest here

0211
if that high breaks,,,it will trigger nice upside pop as stops r run, shorts cover

0210
HD continues to go after yesterdays high of day... last 3342 about 8 cents away :D

0207
GOLD breaking down finally.... GLD stall at .86 or .74 support

0206
HD and CSCO long are working good tho

0204
if this GOLD will break down, it would be nice,,,still short, still see lower

0153
the ES test here of 15min R is impt... if it breaks over the 15min DTL then should test HOD or make new high of day,,, bias is still up

0123
i'm bullish intraday until it breaks n sustains under it

0123
the 1049 ES continues to hold for last hours

1259
possible bear HS forming in GOLD 3min

1250
we could make a higher hi intraday still, per my charts..... or test todays high

1247
i still see another pop up in es spx

1245
watching to see if ES holds 1049,,,last 1051,,, support at 1049 could give a bounce up

1224
i see no reason to exit csco or HD long,,, will take profits on 25% shares in HD just to lock some gain in,,,

1217
CSCo finally waking up,,, last 23 up from 2280 stuck zone

1216
the HD successfully put in the 3 white soldiers mentioned an hour ago, with a 4th green candle now,,,

1210
GOLD falling :)


 
1206
the ES has a bullish confirmation of the inv hammer candle, with a 60 min close over the 1054 mentioned at 10AM

1205
HD is going after yesterday's high,, last 3325, trgt 3353, for a break even higher and a key reversal day bullish / engulfing candle possible..........

1159
covering short in 25% shares in GLD at breakeven to reduce risk, have lotsa shares, the last addition accomplished it avg down cost objective, holding 75% shares

1158
long HD and csco, HD green,, csco giving fits near breakeven, GLD behaving now, giving expected breakdown

1156
 i see poss breakdown in 8 minutes intraday, hence the premium paid for short

1155
GLD short basis cost now 117.05

1154
added 117.22not .27,,, paying premium

1152
adding GLD shorts lim 117.27 if able, last 11722

1127
3min ES has bull inv HS with 1064 target,,, if it plays out, last 1051

1126
HD 60min is trying to form a 3 white soldiers bullish pattern

1124
GLD hit 1707 near the 1705 trgt from before and bounced as expected,,,still see a break lower

1123
HD and CSCO long trades still valid, for me,,, gold short acting as expected too for now

1119
a 60min ES close over 1055 pref 1057 would be bullish ES

1118
the ES is exhibiting the "bullish" aspect of the shoot star invertd hammer mentinoed earlier....

11116
ES has just broken higher over its 3min DTL,,,and backtested it with support 1051,,, watching reaction to see if holds backtest

1111
GLD 117.05 is support and stall bounce there likely if it goes there,,,still expect a break lower after any bounce there, last 117.32

1106
i still like HD and CSCO long for now, intraday

1053
GOLD has now setup 15min divergences and possibly has made its high of the day,,,watching because GLD might want 118.20, last 117.25,,,still short GOLD for now

1051
the ES 60min has a shooting star candle, but this can be bearish or bullish in this formation. Why? because ES is in a downtrend 60 min, and shoot stars (inverted hammers) can be bullish in downtrends

1014
adding HD long 3295

1011
LONG in HD 3286 limit if filled, last 3291

Tues
948 \
I am SHORTING gold, short term, want long later, via GLD 117.00,,,, using 2x # of shares since GLD is a 1x instrument

Tuesday 9:10 AM
I'll buy some sso 33.27 if able pre-market, about 1042 ES, last 1044 ES

0136
last 2 candles in ES 60min bearish pattern setting up,, with a close under the low of last hour confirming bearishness if it comes

0135
bulls in trouble here,,,they must hold es 1084/82...looks like it will break lower in coming minutes hoours

0121
if ES 1082 doesnt hold, bulls in trouble

0115
gold is pushing up somewhat here, tho narrow range tday

0113
ES continues to weaken the last hour.... more whipsaw expected still, for me

0106

1241
watching reactions at es 1081 1083

1240
the mini trend up support line in ES is still valid but expecting at least a test of that (down ES)

1225
stopped out of hpq breakeven for now,,,after taking miniscule profit on a piece of it

1222

1206

DGP gold stops set at about a 1% loss if stopped out,, can always re-enter

1143
EUO is at 2.7% profit, stop set at 2.5% profit is stopped out, can always reeenter,,, DGP swing is only at 0.3% for now...

1137
there is a 60min uptrend support line in ES that is holding

1135
HPQ has marginally broken higher out of coil as expected, but this is unconfirmed, can easily move lower, as the break is small for now,,, larger move up still could backtest down again,, some chop could be seen

1131
gold GLD DGP have possible bullish 3 day morning star pattern, needs to be confirmed tomorrow or any other subsequent day with a close over todays high

1124
HPQ is touching the R line in the coil now,,,,

adding more hpq

1122
HPQ is in a 15min coil, still expecting a break to upside, last 4635

1042
if dig can get a 5min close over 2871 it should give a nice pop up,, last 2865

1032
this DIG DUG oil is not for the faint of heart, but fun volatile,,, DIG shortterm trade still valid

1014
trying DIG here 2845, short term only, want to switch back to dug later, still in dug from 59
