S&P 500 - September 7, 2010 - Intraday

S&P went soft in the future market trading of the holiday session -- no surprises about that, right? :-)


This morning, we have had some fast selling on bad breadth


Index is inside a gap it opened on September 3.


It seems like profit taking/Hedging into spike of Friday was not a bad idea.

I had said that 1085-1090 is my first level of concern and since index is close to 1090, and I would like the bulls to hold it.


I may think about levels that would make comfortable to lift some hedges.

In a post of yesterday, I presented three wave counts and said that if I were inclined to go side with the first two counts, then I might think about some options targeting 1130-1140. Depending on how bulls do, I may start thinking about conditions/triggers for a possible long play in that regard

The key is risk management within time frame of one's choice, patience, and a bit of common sense.

Patience Is the Mistress of Reward!

We said that with shorts pooched, we might get to see what bulls were made -- correct thinking so far.

Now, let's see what bulls are made of.

Have a Nice Day!
