Markets enter the consolidation phase: Russell2000 still bullishI perceive Russell2000 as being in a still bullish phase, however, it might need more time to settle. Today we might see mild pressure to the upside with light volume. Remember, today is a short day for CME. US Stock exchanges are closed.
Another short term hedge opportunity #stocks After the huge run in the Russell I am using the index futures to hedge against long equity exposure in the portfolio. I am not bearish on the market on an intermediate term (weekly) basis but in the short term I think its a prudent time to protect against any potential volatility spike or profit taking in the market especially going into a long weekend. My stop will be above yesterdays high and if the hedge works, price should be heading back into the range (rectangle) from last week
