1090

1090 in the Russell is the outer edge of this years range. This level serves as the first important reference point to manage positioning.

Earlier this week we discussed setting up a trade here. It’s possible this level might get rejected here today, and should be the upper end of how the markets consolidate and accept price.

If you are a bear, and think this market is headed materially lower, you have to take a swing here based on how easy this trade is to manage.

We’re going to develop a watchlist of 5 longs and 5 shorts tonight. Bring your top ideas.

    not sure if anyone follows RedDog. I think he’s personally a moron but wouldn’t mind his last post to come true…

    Just a thought. Lots say we have to test yest lows. & I don’t think anyone wants 2 be long overnight. So pain trade would be up tomorrow

      To me rejected would mean i’d see a big red candle or long upper tail…
      I’d like to see it get back above $1105

    Today was a conclusive blast of buyers that really took control and weren’t afraid to chase as shorts got squeezed out higher. A large percentage of stocks that were up were up big, and the more significant the measurement on the day, the more the bulls dominated. Yesterday was similar but lacked the vast number of stocks up 4%

    If you’re new and don’t have OA’s ToS oscillator running, or if you had the weird squiggly line in yours that would get super small on Futures and some stocks, I dropped a share link with the correct version in the AHWOA chat.

    Looking at doing a FCX 29/30 Nov call spread for a $0.64 debit with the idea of covering the short call if it dips closer to $29 or just hold it through opex if it stays up. Potential 56.25% gain if we close above $30 on opex.

          Here is an easy read ; SDRL , the Seadrillians are old people who’ve been crushed all year and with any slight move up these golden oldies will be averaging down…I ‘m definitely covering and have become a newly minted Seadrillian .

      Could be just consolidating and building a base here. Thinking of moving some cash in CVX but I also need a hedge and don’t want to be running around naked.

        it shouldn’t need to though. Rut has underperformed ALL year. it built it’s base and got the jump wednesday/thur…today should be follow thru AT LEAST on par with the s&p if the next leg up has truly begun.

    I see the RUT notably under-performing today. Looking to see if we hold this 1090 and move higher. How’s the volume today?
