Under the Big Top 5/3/24

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

We all know that Wall Street is really a circus. So are we under the big top? 

Hard to say, but if it rolls over today, maybe. 

And if not, well, a breakout through 5096 would suggest higher prices ahead. The 5 day cycle projection says 5135-40. 

Trend spport at 7 AM ET projects around 5076 heading toward 5080 at the NY close. Bust that and maybe the clowns will sing The Party's Over.  They Walked the Line

Too peel, or not to peel, that is the question. 

Feeling really good about my 14/1 long short ratio in the trading port this morning. Feeling good makes me nervous.  Probably should sell everything.   😏 

Although the thought that I should sell everything probably means that I shouldn't.

All gapped up on the open. Covered the one short. Of my longs, 4 were utilities and one was a bank. I've bought banks for a trade before, but never utilities. But the screens said buy, so I did, and voila. Payday. 

To sell or not to sell. That is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous shakeouts, or to take arms against a sea of stop running. Aye, there's the rub, for in that sea of stops, what dreams may come must give us pause.

From PR perspective Fed is sending good spirit to bulls. They lower the QT and made a clear statement about no hikes in the future. Fed wants to increase credit/leverage by private sector.

 

We could have a soft landing. Really. They are doing this nicely.

Well, I don't know about the electricity stocks, and I might let go of my gas, but I'm definitely going to hold my Water.

Water gets drained, just not during market hours, usually at 2 am

Well, I didn't sell. But I did add 4 shorts this afternoon. A bit hedged, so to speak. But if they gap down Monday, I'll take a hit. 

Bonne weekend!
