TRENDING
Everyone was invited to the woodshed this week and apparently many decided to dress up and attend. As someone suggested in kind this morning – the Mole woke up and had to watch his USD exchange rate being stomped into oblivion. Anyway, based on what I’m seeing on the Zero only a small minority of traders benefitted from today’s Euro drama sponsored short squeeze:
I’ve added another day to the Zero Lite chart to show you how minimal the participation today in comparison to what we saw in the past few weeks. Looks to me a good number of hobby bears got taken to the cleaners today.
In particular if you held puts overnight – or [...]
I really don’t have a central theme today so please forgive me if I simply post a wholesome medley of market musings, updates on previous entries, setups, etc. As usual we start with the spoos which seem to be painting a step down pattern.
I am not sure if that’s an official term but to me it depicts a slow descend from one resistance/support zone to the next. First it was the 100-day SMA (always a pleasure) – and more recently it was a Net-Line Sell Level (NLSL). Next target zone is around 1288 where we find the bottom of our 100-day Bollinger.

And if you are a [...]I’m in Madrid for a few days and won’t have much time for a post tonight. However, I did promise a quick comment cleaner and based on the tape I’m seeing we may be looking at a tradeable setup:
There you have it – possible inside day + NR4 on the spoos. The NR4 part may change [UPDATE: it has – see new chart above] – the inside day has pretty good odds of holding [UPDATE – and it did]. You know the rules I’m sure – if not please consult the cheat sheet.
By the way – be careful out there. This tape seems engineered to whipsaw people into pieces. If you take an entry tonight then keep a watch on the AH [...]
