There is an old, seemingly wise saying, that says "time in the market beats timing the market!" This works for people that do not want to do the work... to study repeatable patterns. Throughout the bull market of 2024 (yes, the market is in a bull market) I have been waiting for and been asked by followers "is THIS the pullback to go long?" Generally, the...
Another choppy and flat day for the challenge account. I think i did ok today but that lotto i bought should have been a call. Don't know what i was thinking buying a put after VX just broke below support. Oh well i should have been done trading at that point anyway. Next week will be better.
ES1! showing signs of heavy resistance to price movement, AKA liquidity in this rarified air. The daily ranges for the previous two trading days will be monumental in the market deciding its direction, as there is a lot of interest packing in at these levels. 5287 to 5349 are the outer limits with 5318-to-5323 also being important inflection points as this plays...
At this point you gotta figure the daily is gonna go overbought before this stupidity ends, lol. My 3hr indicators should go oversold Monday, guess I gotta go long.
Going over the morning session looking for clues to how we could have traded today better. going into the weekend we really want to reflect & update our trading plan. eliminate what isnt working and double down on what is working. keep working hard. another week almost in the books. goal is to be green end of the day. not become a millionaire.
- 3 Failed tests on 4h timeframe - Price breakdown (hourly bear flag) - Price targets: 5226.75, 5153.75, trailing stop - Stop Loss: 5350 (break into ATHs)
- Strong rejection of a key level - Bearish structure formed at top of range - Possible exhausted bull run?
ES failed to break above high of day earlier. OPEX typically leads to chop, but I'll be watching to see if we can get any momentum tonthe downside.
Trading Plan for Friday, May 17th, 2024 Market Sentiment: Uncertain, as the market shows signs of fatigue after 10 consecutive green days. Traders are anticipating a pullback and adjusting strategies accordingly. Important Note: It's OPEX Friday, which often leads to choppy price action and pinning (price moving a lot but ending near the starting point)....
CBOE:SPX if it can base above 5300 today we should see 5332 by early next week.

ES tested the 5333 level several times overnight and couldn't break. It's trying again now whil VX is at the bottom of its range. I'd expect ES to fail here, but it moves above and VX makes a new low I'll have to reconsider my short bias.
I am really into the bond / stock relationship. Higher interest rates leads to an alternative to stocks, especially when stocks at all-time highs. The huge stock rally on Wednesday was helped by a big bond rally. Now the bonds have given up the entire rally. This could lead to bearish index futures patterns more likely to work.

I like this path on ES. If it plays out, 5300 will be a critical test. We could see a move back to 5200 if it doesn't hold.
CRazy... way overbought and looks like a melt up. Got stopped out of my puts for even money, but I made plenty on the CPI pump so I'm done for the week. Not gonna short anything on Ponzi Friday. I'm not into chasing an overbought market, see ya guys Monday.
