At the lows, the SPX was oversold on my 3-hour on down to the 1-minute. That usually leads to at least a half-day bounce the following session.

Futures are like trading anything else. The hardest part is opening the account with a futures only broker and loading the programs up<G> I'm using ninja traders brokerage, that integrate into the charting platform with one click trading. The harmonic software and platform run about 80 bucks a month. The thing with futures is the tremendous leverage you are dealing with. The margin for 1 NQ contract with ninja is $1800 per contract. NQ trades at $20 a point, so you can evaporate $1000 in 50 points. This is margin is only during the day, overnight it goes to whatever CME is. I think about $17K Ninja also has a simulated account you can practice with until you are ready to put real money at risk. Works the same as a real account, all functions of super dom trading window work. Edit. there are also micro contracts that are one tenth the of NQ, MNQ

< but how are y'all feeling about Monday? > I am waiting for the next NFLX-type report, waiting for VIX in the high 30s, waiting for the needle to move to ExtremeFear, and the 10y bond to hit 3%, before going long anything (on a holding period more than a few hours). Comfortable still holding my entire short QQQ position. I will cover, if we bounce at the February-March lows. If QQQ sets new lows, next support is…..somewhere…..down there.
