SPX: Bearish Butterfly Pattern Completing 3K

ที่อัปเดต:
Details in chart. Huge FOMO rush to pile back in left a monster gap to fill 90 pips below.
Another big gap at 2538.2 never filled. It will fill...

Time cycles projected above, top-to-top time is ~ biweekly, 3-4 up days, 2-3 down days, 3-4 up days, ~ nine sessions.

Trading >2SD above 20DMA, green line. This has been the magnet drawing price reversion to mean. Price will tag 20DMA!
NB: 20DMA rests exactly at the gap from 2864...!

Time cycle and price action suggests completion of the 'W' in Bearish Butterfly on or about 21 May, topping right at 3k.
Rollover to a higher low IMO, target 2538 in early June.

Time on target won't last long IMO, probably rest at higher low, double bottom for a few minutes and start another bullish move. Hope > Greed > Fear atm...!

This is just an idea, not trading advice; trade at your own risk, GLTA!

Shorted puts EOD in bear spreads Tues nite, hedges offset the gap up; adding to position in June puts.

Looks like 2980 may have been top on 5/20; got 2978 on 5/21... still open for trading ofc, can we see 3k?!

Added to bear spreads and rolled short legs down and out to get ready for a long weekend. These 30 Jun Contracts will be pretty cozy held over long weekend; short legs are spread at $5-$6 on weeklies.

Im short QQQ, IWM, SPY. Long legs all went ITM 5/21.

More selling AH... Friday before a long weekend typically time for risk-off, starts to look Bearish IMO...

In overnight trade heavy selling AH peaked at 4am; futures pumped then a mini-dump in open. Volatile low volume holiday trade, sqirrley behavior; took risk off and money off the table, small gains in the bear spreads.

Just not behaving as expected and the gap at 2920 closed AH, IMO could be priming for a shot at 3k still...
enjoy the long weekend and stress-free Monday nite watching futures without nail-biting!

Going to short on the gap up, R/R favors bears 3:1:

Since 1928, there have been 29 streaks that have stretched to at least 20 days — and 21 of them ended with the S&P 500 falling below the 50-day average, while only eight ended with a push above the 200-day, he noted, making for a roughly 72% probability the index will break down.

But even if the index were to defy the odds and break to the upside, it might not offer investors much comfort. Goepfert noted. When that’s happened in the past, the median return a year later was minus 9.2%, with equities producing a positive return just 38% of the time, he found.

We filled the extension on the gap up. Shorted into the gap, all July puts in: IWM @140; SPY @300, QQQ @230, DIA 250, and FB @237.5, it is way overbought IMO.

All positions are bear spreads, shorted the weeklies with 3 days left to expiration range $5-$10 OTM for credits.
GLTA!

Sharp drop on FB brought position ITM within an hour! This spread is July 237.5 <> 29 May 227.5, a $10 debit spread.

Rolled QQQ up to 231 strikes, legged out and in. Station keeping.

OFC they pumped it, I hedged my shorts on this eventuality! Looks to open near 3030, SPY starting < 303; DIA, IWM slightly higher, opening near Tuesdays' HOTD; another invitation to add shorts and cover hedges IMO.

Oddly the QQQ 231 puts remain ITM premarket, and FB sells!

Closed out half positions on the mid-day selloff. IMO a bigger selloff is likely by next week. Short the rallies!

Re-entering shorts on QQQ, FB; hedged vs Friday's dailies. FB looks to be headed lower IMO; sold off $10 in Am and retraced half, shorting again around $227.

Odd divergence suggests MMs trading NQ for DJI, closed the DIA position for small gain from hedges. Probably a bit too soon to go hog wild on shorts IMO, but who knows? I am short QQQ, IWM, SPY, FB atm.

Average 68 days in bear market rally, now in day 64, starts to look real squirrley...!

EOD short covering rally at 2PM, this is the time of day when brokers force liquidations, it's a technical rally from forced buys to cover. Look to add shorts EOD IMO.

Apparently most of participation now is retail, smart money is sidelined. Typical before a break.

See my Nenstar related post for current updates. This will sell IMO. Target: 2864 close the gap. Secondary target: 2538 at lower gap. Might not get there until later this year...

Stalled at the 0.786 Fibo. See my Nenstar idea. I'm short!

Red rocket doji. Confirmation Friday? Stay tuned!
