Just lost the low of the day. Bold move, let's see how it plays out.$30,000 Millionaire said:

Nice! thanks for posting. I feel like they try to hold above 4020 until open tomorrow, maybe even 4040, then a slow dump after the opening hour.

Watch 407.60s today on SPY. Confirms and I think we see 412ish ahead. Rejects and I think we sell again in days to come to 398s.

Still in OSTK if anyone followed me on it. We got within 7 cents of stopping, but I knew that was a good level. I'd like to exit later this week, ideally at $27-$28.

Pretty good close on OSTK. That's got R/S for the moment.

I'm not OA, and won't speak for him, but I have had some success with a strategy that works for me.$30,000 Millionaire said:

I buy significantly out-of-the-money puts on leveraged index funds (theory being that I also benefit from natural decay). I use double leveraged, or ideally triple-leveraged ETFs. I treat these positions as "catastrophic insurance coverage", like flood or hurricane insurance. I don't expect to make money on them (and they mostly expire worthless), but will incrementally scale out of them if they go in my favor early.
A current example: I was concerned several weeks ago about the NASDAQ getting overheated.
TQQQ 10/21/2022 $30 Puts. Bought at $1.71 per contract. Sold a few the other day at $3.05, and had a sell order for $5.00 in today (which didn't execute). Last trade was $4.70.
I am not trying to match or perfectly insulate my long holdings, but simply protect some of my gains in the case of a reversal, and also place a bit of a bet on a counter-trend. A simple risk management technique.
It's not for everybody, for sure. Open to other ideas.

I ain't OA but I used his strategy of selling 50% calls and 100% on an AMD position and slowly worked my trading account back to even.$30,000 Millionaire said:

Then you helped me manage a put trade last week that put me in the green.
So people do pay attention to you guys and it helps!
I was in deep in the trading account from some bad trades on NVDA earlier this year.
wow! nice call. sadly I was on the sidelines, been too busy with work and life. and chickened out at the open, shoulda coulda woulda bought puts.FJ43 said:FJ43 said:

I still also have AMD short calls. Sold at 12, worth 4 now. I think you could hold until expiration probably, but I think I'll unload tomorrow most likely and look to resell on a spike.

If you took the trade posted a few weeks ago and haven't trimmed or sold....maybe don't be greedy. Up almost 40%. Sell covered calls or take a net free position at the least.
Just my 2 cents.

ok, help me
what did i miss?
I think they are going to push back up towards top of pattern to lure in new bulls and then September it to the downside.
I'd actually draw this as a megaphone down, but that's just me. I know a lot of traders are drawing this as a channel down, but this is my take. Your take on a relief bounce is probably spot on. After that though, I think September will be pretty bloody. McInnis's post a few pages back was showing SPX seasonality in a midterm election year. On average we sell, sell sell into first week of October. Oh, found it! see below:
how to play it? my rookie take, buy calls around 395, play the bounce, trim at fib levels (all out at 50% retrace of this recent drop (around 407). I don't think this will have the juice to bounce to 420, but I'm sure 30k will also disagree!

My SQQQ play is based on the megaphone and model t. Simple plan. Will I miss some great intraday moves? Yes.
But that's ok. I'm looking to trade less and on a longer time frame.

I don't expect to trade much today and I don't see anything right here. Probably chop. I'm short biased but we have tested 3970 and it's held several times.
I wouldn't be surprised to see very tight range today.
