  • peterd: @ReneeH $SCHW $PLTR $HOOD $NVDA Take a look at $XLF, $JPM, $C - Financials taking a hit.
  • ReneeH: @peterd $SCHW $PLTR $HOOD $NVDA $XLF $JPM $C thanks for validating, just reviewing $XLF, I'm one of the og believers in dow theory, confidence with XLF trending, not so hot when it's breaking down.
  • ReneeH: @peterd $SCHW $PLTR $HOOD $NVDA $XLF $JPM $C fwiw, imo potential for bearish divergence here forming RSI/macd.

  • ReneeH: @peterd $SCHW $PLTR $HOOD $NVDA $XLF $JPM $C not easily. Have a look at the daily with the bearish engulfing candle, weekly compare RSI here, curling down, vs prior levels at highs nov & jan, it's a thing imo. But time will tell.

  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $TQQQ $TNA $SPXL $UDOW Following you both, and the only other one I have is $FAS, though I sold most once the $XLF fell a bit below its 8ema. Also worrisome regarding the latter, bank earnings begin next week, and I'm out of most of my $MS. That's it. Hope you're staying cool in the inferno of the foothills. Cheers.
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $TQQQ $TNA $SPXL $UDOW $FAS $XLF $MS ... good show buddy. Glad you are doing well with the index 3x derivatives. Yes, hot down here in the foothills. Today's not bad at 75... but hotter days seem to be coming again. What's the temp where you are?
  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $TQQQ $TNA $SPXL $UDOW $FAS $XLF $MS Next week we got upper 90's, maybe a 100 or so mixed in. So we'll head up to Truckee for relief. Oh, but then to EDH to see my wife's mother; as you know, that's always a burner. Cheers.
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $TQQQ $TNA $SPXL $UDOW $FAS $XLF $MS ... I finally finished our fire season prep a couple weeks ago.

  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $SPY $SPX $SPXL #Core-position #Trading-positions... I'm looking to add to those positions as well, so thanks for providing us with you add consideration. I'm also heavily into $FAS, as the $XLF looks like it could hold this gap; though I'm always cognizant that we're one bomb or missile or failed truce away from a spooky reaction in the market. Would like to add to $FAS but will wait to see if the XLF holds the gap and then breaks out. That's it. Stay cool. Cheers.
  • champ: @Nepenthe $SPY $SPX $SPXL $FAS $XLF #Core-position #Trading-positions... ... Real nice and I'm in $TQQQ $SPXL and $NAIL....and I'm a swing believer and I added today. Good Luck ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $SPY $SPX $SPXL $FAS $XLF #Core-position #Trading-positions... for $XLF $FAS, I would set an alert slightly above the 5/19 high 51.77 to add... and then a second alert to add again slightly above the 2/19 high 52.25. At those 2 points, probably more buyer interest starts to get excited about the 2 new highs and drives it higher.
  • Nepenthe: @champ $SPY $SPX $SPXL $FAS $XLF $TQQQ $NAIL #Core-position #Trading-positions... I usually follow you swing tendencies, so thanks for that. Good luck to you as well. Cheers.

  • phgruver: Good morning, y'all. It's moved into early Summer, around here. All the spring flowers are gone, and everything is lush and green. The temperatures are very pleasant, but afternoon showers will be the norm for the next week or so. Obviously, traders are liking the weekend news, but it remains to be seen if it holds. For now, utilities $XLU and healthcare $XLV are down, while finance $XLF is up biggly! All I can say, is, stay on your toes....
  • Nepenthe: $XLF $FAS $QUBT I don't follow earnings earnestly, but it seems the big banks did relatively well, which led me to the $XLF (today jumped above its 50ma) which in turn led me yesterday to take a small position in $FAS. The XLF is above its 200ma as well. Another I'm interested in is $QUTM, which led me to $QUBT. Early, but it's up 7% today and perhaps on the verge of a BO. That's it. Cheers.

  • joelsg1: @DavidK $SPY $XLF All my posted puts which I was happy to close for huge returns in $LULU and $RH are much higher today, and all my short upside calls in most every share I own of everything are dropping into oblivion, but I was nowhere near properly hedged into this self-immolation.
  • DavidK: @joelsg1 $SPY $XLF $LULU $RH my trading account ( play account ) I use on E*Trade took a about a 6 % downdraft yesterday initially . I said to myself , self , this isn’t looking good short term so I dumped all longs and started sniper shooting shorts via puts . Presently I have made the 6 % back and up around 2% . I feel fortunate .
  • joelsg1: @DavidK $SPY $XLF $LULU $RH Might be time to pivot again, see $DECK.
  • bigbartabs: @champ $FAS ... $XLF that drives FAS has 6 days of declining volume. Might be because the 100dma is coming up as resistance. Or maybe just declining after 2 good days.
