Steady down-tick all day. With the low volume, nobody is nervous so you are not seeing any panic-selling. As a result, you just get the slow dribble down all day... Holiday in UK may be contributing to lower volume today...
Quick break below 1050. This action seems to be algo-controlled. Not getting long yet. I'll either wait till we get lower, wait for a panic-sell or wait till we up-tick greater than 4 points...
OK, took a long, at 1050.25. Will not defend below the low however. I took it because I saw a brief shift in the order flow. This is an aggressive entry, but thats exactly why I won't defend it
I would have been much more tempted to go long today, but the market action dictated otherwise. One of the slowest dribble-down days I have seen. No reason to fight the trend today. S&P couldn't trade above the 20 MA on the 10 minute chart. Seeing that helps you confirm that market remains in the down-trend...
I am still looking to get long. We are more than 20 points off the highs from early this morning. I will need the market to show me some good entry signs before I do initiate my long. I will of course post when I do take it, if I do take it.

Hasn't been much of an up-tick all day. Largest reversal has been 4 points on the ES. Still, I plan to scale in with 1/3 position soon

ReplyDeleteThis close is very negative, if I do go long at this point, I will be careful... have to re-evaluate market...
