Pat

i was just looking at the DJX...to trade options...is that what you were trading???, or was it the futures...

the Dec 89 puts right now are 2 1/16...thinking we rally to that level..

the Jan's 89's puts are 3 1/2...could be just a nice positional trade, based on my read of the selloff, we would go down to 8350...

i'm assuming 1 point for every 100 point move in the DOW...

this is a slow moving and very sorta safe index to trade...

Looks to me like a short setting up. I got a bearish TICK and MACD divergence. Not sure where the resistance is that should be shorted, but if I add 12 to the old 1155 on the Dec contract, maybe mid to upper 60's.....67 for a short anyone?

I am now short at 62+ for a day trade

The SOX has given a buy signal and some of the other indices are within striking distance of a buy signal

Continued strength would actually cause my system to go long today -- I will take the signal but it is one of these signals that I feel real uncomfortable about, especially ahead of the impeachment vote --- on the other hand, these are the type of signals that seem to have a habit of being really good ones.
