Daily Outlook

We forecast an up day in the market and entered our positions just before 9:35 a.m.  The market initially went in our direction, but then started to pullback. We were focused on the daily target level in both SPX and SPY as our possible stop level just after 9:45 a.m. There was a very fast drop just after 9:50 a.m. and as it broke the daily target level we exited our positions for -25% in SPX and -22% in SPY. That fast drop was concerning, and why we choose to exit at this point. It just didn’t go our way, so we shake it off and look forward to what tomorrow will bring.

Aggressive Trader

We forecast an up day in the market and entered our positions just before 9:35 a.m.   We exited our positions just after 9:50 a.m. for -31% in SPX and -29% in SPY. Just didn’t go our way, so we shake it off and look forward to what tomorrow will bring.

Spread Trader

We held our SPX Spread Trader position to the close for +30% ROM.  Another profitable day and we look forward to what tomorrow will bring!

Late Day Trader
