Any comments today on ISRG or still not clear? Now looks a bit bearish right before earnings today ?
still doesn't say much.
The options show that the market is expecting a swing of 7-8%.
Yea i know but im trying to figure out which way its going to move...haha :)
initally i was bullish but the action last two days has me thinking again so im confuseddd!
I see. You know what. I made quite a lot money on ISRG before, but I always predicted wrong when it comes to earnings report.
This time, I guess it will go down. :lol:
So, you know what to do now.

a consolidation below an important resistance generally is good for bulls. still think this is 2 legged up, could be the 1st leg up has done.

Still looks like a downtrend channel to me from friday close. 120 as support middle line. We could get a bull flag intraday here if bulls are strong enough to hold 120...

Best to wait buddy boy. :)

That's one big ass green hour candle. U don't want to short into that. I think it's safe to say 1211 to 1217 is the shorting target with stop loss at 1224 and profit at 1177 or more. That's a 3:1 reward:risk ratio.
I'm up 10%, oct 22 spy 122 puts..this is a day trade not swing :) Easy money, why not.
I'm a swing trader, and so my system is slower than day traders, and it was mostly developed during the bull run from the 3/2009 low, and so it has had a hard time giving sell signals during counter trend rallies in what now appears to be a cyclical bear phase. Still, it is setting up to allow me to short on a break below 1190 (hoping it isn't a bear trap). An alternate short entry would have me trail 2 bars back on the 60 min candle lows.

I should add that I would call off the entry if a new high is made (>spx 1225).

Measured Move target. I don't believe the target though. Sorry I'm busy this morning, so may not be able to answer questions.

Great 1215 it is, which is 5 more points. Which falls perfectly in my range of 1211 to 1217. Who's shorting with me at this range with stop at 1225? :)
