my bullish scenario is a 1357  pin.. 1300 happened to get pinned as well which is interesting and had I it in the cards, but i guess we didn't really pull back far enough to really warrant worry about excessive weakness in a proceeding retrace? I was looking for that 1294 range but it didn't quite happen.. I think we gap up though a bit , and should be a grind around the 50ma (daily chart), then flirt with 1357 late in the week. Just some ideas.

 

Also, referring to cash index

LNKD just broke into the $105's. Impressive run from $98's last thursday.

 

Calls are at 2.30. 170%

 

edit: LNKD going for its 105.88 resistance. Weekly is showing room up into the $106's so it could have some more upside. Calls at 2.60 now +206%

The cow!

 

I'm thinking the VIX goes lower. H&S on it looks to be playing out.

I'm looking for SPY to test 136 this week. That's going to be a major resistance point on the daily (100 ma, 100 arc) and weekly (20 ma, 61.8 arc). Both very strong sell areas there.

The week will be a slow grind IMO. Weekly resistance also just below 135, we're just in a really tight range here between 134-136.

I'm personally need a swift move to the downside. I built a rather large short position and took a beating. I'm hoping for the gap fill territory highlighted

Large quantity of puts moved largest sum of puts traded at ask or greater. Call bias looks light. Leads me to believe we're looking for a soft open and grind down throughout the day vs. gap down.

Took out all supports until 47.79 this morning. Down 1.4% right now on this market gap up.

SPY at 136 now. Resistance just a tad higher actually, around 136.10.

 

Great short here IMO. SPY 135x weekly puts at .55 right now.

post #78 of 179

^^ That's the drop I was looking for. Was just off on the top. In the SPY puts at .55 ..just sold at .71 for a quick 27% gain.

1360 level is very important. If the markets can close above it for the week I'll be very bullish for the next couple of months.

HERO 3.50x July calls at .30.

 

Looking good here to 3.70, maybe 3.90. Just watching it for now, not in it myself.
