Strategy and Tactics – Re-orient your mind and positioning
- We are on daily sell signals across SPY / QQQ / IWM for the first time since the bounce.
- While I put nothing past the ability of dipsters to gobble this up, for me I have to trust the technicals because that is what I do.
- Having sell signals, does not necessarily mean gonzo short. SPY below 300 and QQQ below 233.50 would emboldened the downside case.
- I am a 2 way trader so I will play this bounce until it peters out. THat may be as soon as today.
- My bias is now bearish. IWM has been the weakest and has therefore been the focus of my bearish campaign for active trading
- FAAMG – Unless we see these break, the market cannot truly crack. Keep them in focus.
- I realize its difficult, but don’t lock it on an idea or thesis. Stay open and flexible in your thinking. Let price be our guide. Stay mentally flexible here.
FAAMG Update & Trading Guidance
Given the gap down; I will send you an early update on the key levels here.
- FB – Prices above $221.71 keeps the daily chart bullish; below favors 50ema test at $210.50
- AAPL – $325 coincides with prior ATH and 20ema. Favor a move there for a back test.
- AMZN – A move below the 8ema at 2477 favors a move to test the 20ema at 2540
- MSFT – Needs to hold 185; other wise a 50 ema test is favored at 178.
- GOOGL – 1420 is the toggle. Above is good for bulls, below favors move to 50ema 1361. lower favored. .
