I fear we may be sideways from here today. On the daily, SPY is tightening its range down and we have a gap above and below to fill. I believe many have said they feel the gap above will be filled first then move down to fill the below gap soon after. I'm beginning to believe they are correct.

I wish I was in a spot to post a chart but the cone, including the peaks for the days it gapped up and down, would put tomorrow or Friday as decision day. If you don't include those days, the chart would indicate a move next week early. I am leaning toward tomorrow or Friday with OPEX week in mind.

I agree with you (and bsg and fj yesterday afternoon) on the pennant, but i also spy with my little eye a bull flag! We've also broken out of the pennant according to my crayons

FJ posted one that shows it close up. Mine shows it macro size.

I got into SQ calls on the early expected macro pullback. It's major support is in the mid $50's but might see some ranging like Sept $50's did OR it might just pull a 3/24 pure reversal into uptrend. I trimmed on the nice move but would buy back if revisits.

Yes is my answer to the XOM reversal. Also FMC $115 calls to June 16. Ease into them.and use any capitulation to add IMO

Yes. Gap above starts at 414.82 I believe. So if today is the day, $415 is the target.

Thanks OA!

Man those 412Cs are worth bunches more. Not going to complain about doubling my money, but leaving 5x on the table is what I spoke of earlier.

It was a good trade. I suggest leaving a runner 10% with no risk to capture potential double of your double.

Should we expect some re-trace? If so, how much? This has been a heck of a 30-minute run.

If it decides to run for the top of mancinis inner megaphone that's about 416.8, and only a little over $6 daily range. Could happen

Where do you see a good re-trace level if one was inclined to buy puts?
413 range for Friday?

That's a good start. But the trend has been that SPY will stay a full day out of the 414-408 range then back in. So if it doesn't retrace today, maybe see what tomorrow holds.

XOM
- With the push through $105 there should be an easy path to $108. Should $108 be broken through in a short time span. Look for a Gamma Squeeze to occur.
- Any news of a debt ceiling deal will be bullish
- I picked up a rumor that the NY FED sold 250 million barrels of Crude Oil Futures and I am trying to verify.

ETA = sorry, hit post to fast

If NY Fed sold Futures this past 30 days, there is your manipulation, 250 million barrels is the equivalent to the SPR Release in 2022; however, it's temporary in my book because it's not physical material hitting the market. it's a psychology for pricing. Second, if NY Fed did sell paper, I truly hope the Buyer(s) of the paper can identify the Seller, and if it is NY Fed that ties back,...then Serve Notice for Delivery....and let the NY Fed squirm out of that position. It would take some massive balls to take delivery on 250 million barrels but Saudi comes to mind as having the financial wherewithal to do this maneuver.

Love it! The good trades karma was at its highest during donations for helping others.

Kenny Brown. Liver transplant and now on dialysis after a host of surgeries and continued issues. Not sure how much longer we have him but his family will be left and have big needs.

Thank you!

Does this mean we'll see an upward trend for a few days? How's that 422c lotto for next Tuesday look?

I don't even want to tell you guys how badly I paper handed 4135Cs I had, but I did make money today.

no clean lean yet into the close. I think as long as stay above ES 4168-4170 that 4180 could trade today. I think this will be the high of the week. Don't forget this is monthly OPEX week, so shenanigans will persist.

Gold could be a long.

I'm still reading and learning here:

I see the June 16th call for FMC at .70 now. Did that go down since your post? did your position hit stops and sell? or are you holding?

thanks for the lessons and tips!

I sold 416s against mine to build free+ spreads. I actually accidentally sold 5/19 416s first accidentally building a calendar spread (?) then realized my mistake and bought a 5/19 415 and sold the 5/23 416 for another $25 credit to turn my calendar spread into 2 normal spreads. I got all caught up in the moment today

OA, are you rolling to a different strike price too?

I have 6/16 SPY puts ranging from 380-390 & QQQ puts ranging from $285-295. Like you mentioned, theta is definitely starting to affect them.
