 spy before open

bias spy, down

iwm before open

bias iwm, down

spy, open below VA, more c than p right now, no, pretty even actually

iwm, slightly more p than c

iwm, opened with the VA, but it's already at the POC...hmmm..

spy, watching for breaks of HOD, looking at 450p, slightly more c than p, low and behold, 450p have the most volume

spy, c 7 p about equal

downward bias on both remember

we broke PM high on the first candle, spy, to be clear

volume on first candle higher than previous day's, spy

p & c even, spy

3 times more p than c, iwm, 

holy shit on these iwm puts...

200p have the most

bought iwm 200p on account of the inability of it to break HOD + put volume , 849am, cst

teechnically more p than c, spy, 450p getting the love

decreasing volume, spy

hmm, we got a bigger volume bar, spy

broke HOD on iwm but I'm going to hold it because of the ratio of p to c

break of HOD again spy

break of hod on iwm

34c, 189p, 4.5 ratio, I'm holding, down 24%

going higher, spy

decreasing volume, spy

rsi, 79, spy

more p than c, spy

down28% iwm

entered spy, 450p

down 40% on iwm

reason I entered spy was, decreasing overall volume, increasing "selling" volume + rsi + failure of 5min candles to break HOD

again, you did not corroborate on a higher timeframe

that macd tho...sad face

+5% spy

-31% iwm

again on spy, look at the chiasmus between total volume and "selling" volume, as combined with failure to break HOD, as combined with downward bias, as combined with higher put volume, <-however, put volume isn't wildly higher, only 1.163 

don't do it spy

that candle was green a sec ago

macd showing bulls losing strength

color on the 4th bar on the macd just changed color, not red, but not bright green

+10% spy

-34 iwm

looks like you won on spy, we'll see

spy didn't go to a poc, it went to a volume vacuum area

hmm, macd back to bright green

back to dark green

what could you have done differently on iwm? maybe changed time frames?

god damn it, bright green again on macd

candle going green

red

look at the macd on iwm, it wasn't e...it hadn't even crossed ON THE 5 MIN

still hasn't even closed

spy

didn't even have a cross on the 5 min on spy either...

shit on spy

broke HOD

-14% spy

-50% iwm

holy shit on spy, huge green candle

-23%

-25%

spy on 5

spy on 15

spy again, 15

on 5 again

spy in context

you were even saying earlier, "super strange"--you literally had that typed--that it was "reversing" in a volume vacuum, so no, it wasn't...

what is that a rising wedge?

look at the wicks too

also note the time too, it's 943am, cst, 

shit, break of hod again on spy

this is ridiculous, iwm

macd on the 5 was never even close to closing, spy

I guess you can rip pretty high on descending volume

let's see if these get back to break even

which probably won't happen

down 74% on iwm

-43% spy

both still ripping

1006am, cst

and there was your entry 

would be even better with a close and open below the 9ema

refusing to go down 1037am, cst

going to lose big today

§

the volume was a total fakeout, you can go up and see the chiasmus, total increasing, selling increasing relative total

the only thing you can think is you didn't look left and notice the supply zone? at the consolidation the prior day

again, the macd would have saved you, it hasn't even crossed on the 5, ON THE F****** 5

also notice that yes we opened below the VA and we did indeed take out the PM low
