market internal is super strong today. I guess 80% of chance close at high of the day. If not, then we will see big pull back at night.

Strong resistance at 17 Aug high 121.20 SPY. We are just pennies away from a breakout, or a double top.

A pretty calm day after the storm. Channeling has been solid today so we must assume we're in an Elliott Impulse Wave. I believe a 3 of 3. My target remains 122.85 area but we could extend into the R3 up at 124.35 because of the short covering many have spoken about.

Cobra's weekend report showed the down wave pattern still looking for Wave 5.

But it must be made clear that a Wave 5 can truncate, we may have gotten that, the only way to fully know is a 100% retrace back to 121.20. I see we're a few pennies away so my evil plan that it was a Wave 5 truncation looks solid.

This is not to say Cobra isn't right about a revisit to the lows of August. I think, and believe he has already stated, those lows may not be revisited for weeks to even months, or maybe not at all.

A backtest of the breakout line (Triangle) may happen this week but I'd be surprised if it's before Friday's Employment report. And if that employment report is good, I wouldn't be surprised if the Daily 50MA and 200MA gets tested in the coming days to weeks. There's plenty of cash out there and it's going to go somewhere. The Swiss Franc and Gold don't look like the obvious place to go right now.

1206.75 was an important prior swing high of /ES. A decisive breakthrough that level could cause significant short squeeze (as apposed to a short covering)!

HOD so far is 1206. I would not short at this point.

Yup. I agree. Im short CMG , NFLX and GOOG (max pain is 545). all positions entered today.

AAPL is not moving either....which is a red flag to me even though im long and have a target of 397...im thinking of leaving 1 oct call on as a hedge for my shorts!

But I would love to see the maket caught with its PANTSSSSS DOWNNN!!! :lol: :lol:
I am sorry to disagree, but this sure sounds like a suicide tactic this early...

bears make money, bulls make money, but pigs get slaughtered

Why would you say that ? I have very clear defined stops on my 2 month away puts and calls. As of now , CMG and NFLX are respecting their resistance levels as well as downtrend lines. I am also hedged with AAPL and some other stuff. I guess we will find out soon if I am right !

Seems like a pretty "calm" bull trend day today. No "blow off" top yet to create at the very least a quick scalp short trade. Hourly RSI is at 85.437 as I type so, I'm really just waiting for a quick pop up maybe to 1209-1210 (daily R2) or at the very least 1207-1208 (challenge the SPX high 8/17) to try a quick short with a tight stop. Any thoughts?

Small Caps lead the way higher, this is quite bullish really

If it is broken, then it is double bottom?

Cobra, looks like today spy will stand up above the ema 13, and will test ema 34 on daily chart, but I have a concern about the volume, not higher than Aug 17, the volume is not supporting the breakout. What's your opinion?

Down goes with volume, up it can go "without" volume.

nowadays nobody cares about volume. We've been up in the past 2 years with volume kept going down.
