I'm with you - had an awesome week but I'm flat.

4hr chart says more there - but the chips I've earned are in the bank. Although I left money on the table - its hasn't this easy in while.

I'll wait patiently for a pullback (if there is one) and ride this crazy train. Too soon to short again - barring any media bomb.

I think next week we're probably back to more grindy trading.

Make sense - nope, do I care? I don't. Is the @The_Unwind right? Sure - one day, and maybe soon. But we're not investing - we're trading it.

I thought there would be more vol today as an aside with OPEX. Kept watching the VIX it kept saying go.

Have a great weekend.

Watch the VIX for clues.
Rounded Bottom Breakout.
Volatility has been "uncaged"
Best of luck

@The_Unwind, Higher low on VIX in face of 4500 ATH; going into VIX calls

8/19/21 Rally is false.
Smart money is selling into it.

@The_Unwind, It's a reaction rally, this is normal and expected. Up for a week then down again in Sept IMO

Its the best opportunity we have had to get long in some time - jobs numbers were not great so tough 'taper' on that news.

I'm with you - be watching my indicators for signals - that said when we ticked 4412 on Tuesday that was a naked point of control - and we bolted up to 45

@Maximilianned, The first leg down often provokes a buying panic. Didn't last long. Bearish moves usually only 3-5 days, here we are.
Higher next week again IMO, most ATH occur in September, often in first week.

@DaddySawbucks, agreed

all that passive money will be looking for a home
