SPY

Where regulators are looking?

As always, according to the laws of technical analysis, forgot to kiss the former support line, which later became the line of resistance

Connors' ideas are reborn :)

Oh, how long ago there were no signals from Connors' systems for ETFs due to the fact that the market went on for a very long time without normal pullbacks. This time everything worked out according to the standard scheme..

If I'm not mistaken, the Raptor system is also linked to Connors. I follow this system, but last year there were only two signals, thought that the system had already temporarily died due to lack of volatility. But there were several signals over the past week and most closed today. Here are examples, how does it look:

New Year fiasco

All my positions are left for the new year, on December 30 were closed when I was not to my great disappointment, because the auto closure on daily risks forgot to remove from my account. As a result, all covered without me, and not according to plan. SPY is trading at 200 cents higher than me and covered the other stocks, too, did not leave much up in the end I did not get $ 1500-2500. Stupid technical error. Cheer up there will be no need to move on … george soros technical how is trading done in nyse nasdaq simulator Arca dwy broker at nyse films based on sharemarket

SWING positions 22 December

Yesterday was a day of stupid decisions. At the beginning, PG opened below my intended stop and covered it almost to the very bottom and, according to the law of meanness, it returned to yesterday's close. Hastened a little , had to wait a bit. Fixed a minus of 72C on 500 Shares -360$. If I had kept it even now, it would have been in a small plus.. But I think I did the right thing, because. it was possible to fail it below as in previous times. Then I bought BAM and SFI with free money, which he covered during the day. I think their purchase was unreasonable and stupid. AXL also let me down -99$. I ended up buying more SPY by 125,69 200 Shares.

First SWING positions

Yesterday I started trading my first Swing positions on the second account. In the beginning I wanted to load SPY on all because. I think the market should go up before the new year, but decided not to load everything in one paper. Therefore, I bought another PG from him on the weekly chart, a good level 65 and he is already trading above him.

The first position SWING

Yesterday began trading its first Swing position on the second run. At the beginning wanted to get all the SPY since I think that the market should go up until the new year, but decided not to ship in one paper, everything. On this bought a PG in his weekly chart, a good level 65 and he has traded above that level.

Great Option Plan :)

I'm a complete dilettante in options, but a thought came to my mind. And what if we insure ourselves against the inevitably impending brutal correction of the markets with put options with minimal costs in the coming days?.

For example, buy cheap November SPY put options with a strike 113 — I suppose that the correction will be at least up to this level. They are only worth something 0,09.

For example, if we buy 10 put options with strike 113 on 0,09 — we will pay 90 Dollars.
If the SPY price falls to this level in the next few days, then the strike price will become approximately the same as the strike is now 122 — about 1,20 — and since volatility will increase, it may be even more — i.e, if we fix a position at this level by 1,20, then we get 1200 Dollars.
Total 1200 – 90 = 1110 dollars of profit

Accordingly for 100 options will 12000 – 900 = 11100 dollars of profit
For 1000 options 120000 – 9000 = 111000 dollars of profit
И т.д.

That is, the costs for insurance are very small., and the potential profit is more 1000% in just a few days. And the likelihood of a strong correction in the next few days is very high., in my opinion. Even if there is no correction, to insure with such a small amount is not a sin at all.

But since I'm a big dilettante in options, then there are probably still errors in my calculations, so think for yourself and double-check a hundred times :)

The market has changed?

One gets the impression that the American stock market has changed recently.. Some systems, formerly, stopped working. First thought, judging by the SP500 index, that the market has become more trending relative to the flat period 2004-2007, when all trend systems on stock indices were leaked. By the way, the most profitable long trending swing just ended yesterday, lasting from February this year. Second in long swing 2003 of the year. This i mean, what could be earned by following the signals of the trend tracking systems for the SPY stock, as it is impossible to investigate the SP500 index itself in this way due to unrealistic opening prices. That is, we can conclude about the similarity of what was in 2003 year with the current state of the market. But it was not there — here is an example system, who successfully earned in 2003 year (and not only — she earned ALWAYS) and does not earn successfully during this year. Probably, something has changed in the psychology of American stock market players:
