I am annoyed as fuck too. Trying hard not to do anything stupid.
this 22/29 area is still holding in my view, looking like a possible inside bar this hour, might take another crack at a short play for 3066/74...not a fan of this time of day however..

I have the same line as you but this is one of those times to do exactly the opposite of what's logic.. It's a shit session. Thank you NY for living up to my expectations. Fuck you, NY and your motherfucker mama.

just focussing on short term, it looks like the old bait and switch sure enough, but no follow through, i bought the dip, but closed, coz we're not moving out of the chop zone and we're fast running out of london hours...

could be coiling for a pop after the london close, may come back to it at the ny pm...

s&p hard down on the day but into support...
this is short term also.. with med+ term indication

totally recouped all of friday's losses, it was a fairly large draw down as i did some heavy averaging and didn't get out at break even when i had the chance to, totally dumb trend fighting on a friday afternoon, but there you go.. so i think i'll settle for that for now, will come back later to see how it's developed... gl..

lol, dude, I've hated NY for longer than I can remember, NY brokers are the worst in the world, they are crooks...crude/coffee/OJ/silver/gold/copper/Hoil/NGas/cocoa/cotton..just outright crooks, those bastards never filled an order without figuring how to fuck you first...brokers in Chciago have been held to the uptick/downtick rule since the late 1800's, not NY, never heard the phrase NOT HELD more times in my life, dont even get me started...

I hope this turd doesnt range all night between like 3225 and 3170... uggh...

still lookin for another drop before a major push back up at the end of the week.... lots and lotsa fundie crap to whip things around this week
Ranged just like expected... I suppose my lazy ass should of just bought the low... But I was sleeping..

Anyhow I'm building shorts for a run down to 3072 before the shorts get their "fuckening"

be careful, wulf. I'd like to see that myself, but 3220 is building a nice base for an extended wave northwards. Of course, I could be wrong... but I am looking at 3285 and 3350 for now.

i got 3280 as a top side target if that's the way flow breaks, but got 3260 mpp ahead of that... but personally if i had to guess i'd say down first...
