S&P 500 - July 15, 2009 - Intraday - 3

So what to do if my stop (935+) is not hit?

I can cover, take the loss and say: Thank You.

I can hedge using options or futures

I can just go home and pray that this was it and tomorrow market goes lower and bails me out

I can do a mix of all three above

Was a tough day, has been a tough week so far. Now, the question is: are there still shorts in the system to squeeze?

Piazzi,

Today was another of those days when VIX went up in tandem with the market.

Thank you Kishore,

Yes I noticed that as well.

let's see how the volume comes in. SPY volume was good but that means nothing these days

I think maybe market is telling us that it wants to go higher, S&P moved above 233 MA for the first time. there is a MACD cross, Breadth was just excellent

Nas100 was on fire

The trend of VIX is more, and it has been downtrending

but, wave set looks complete, of course, it's been looking complete for three days :-)

Hi Nasravi

No comments and targets at this time, I'd rather wait for the dust to settle
