4400 Breakout Confirmation Today?

S&P 500 INDEX MODEL TRADING PLANS for MON. 08/28

As we wrote in our trading plans published Thu. 08/24: "It remains to be seen if this morning's surge above 4400 will be convincing enough for our models to abandon the bearish bias by tomorrow". On Friday, 08/25, we wrote: "Based on the early session action, we are not abandoning our bearish bias yet. We will reevaluate this on Monday".

If we get a daily close above 4415 today then our models will flip to a moderately bullish bias. If not, they will continue to sport their bearish bias.

Aggressive, Intraday Trading Plans:

For today, our aggressive intraday models indicate going long on a break above 4433, 4426, 4407, 4402, or 4387 with a 9-point trailing stop, and going short on a break below 4424, 4413, 4405, 4398, or 4384  with a 9-point trailing stop. 

Models indicate explicit long exits on a break below 4430. Models also indicate a break-even hard stop once a trade gets into a 4-point profit level. Models indicate taking these signals from 10:16am EST or later.

By definition the intraday models do not hold any positions overnight - the models exit any open position at the close of the last bar (3:59pm bar or 4:00pm bar, depending on your platform's bar timing convention).

To avoid getting whipsawed, use at least a 5-minute closing or a higher time frame (a 1-minute if you know what you are doing) - depending on your risk tolerance and trading style - to determine the signals.
