Selling Pressure Slows as SPX Forms Inverted Hammer...

SPX

I inserted a submit after a set time condition before the open on Monday night’s put trade on RVBD after trading up as much as a dollar in the pre-market. The price did fade after the open and then recovered which is typical for a gap open all before the time submit order. When RVBD was back in the positive I canceled the order. I would be willing to enter a new bearish trade if the current rally fails.

Hi Dave, just looking at your blog for the first time (found it as a hyperlink on google finance below a quote I pulled up on stock symbol SA) and was wondering why you only quote information based on the 30DMA?? I usually find people using 20,50,100 and 200 DMA (with the 50 and the 200 being the most relied upon). Also, are you always using "simple" averages or do you sometimes use "exponential"?? While I have you (assuming you are actually reading this right now) any hope for two of my other suffering long positions, MU and LCC?? Thanks so much, Mike
