Intraday vs. Long Term

100% was the cutoff when I was doing it intraday. The leverage is so high that you have to do it that way.

As I mentioned in this journal, for my current SPY position I wasn’t planning on closing it out if it went below that line, and then when that happened, I didn’t close it out. In fact, my next add position is below the 100% line.

It depends on how you want to size your positions, your account size, your timeframe, etc.

7/18:

SPY: -$3,762
hedge: $1,876

It seems that SPY made a candle formation today. Doesn’t that mean it should go back up?

But wait, I have some great news for the Fibonacci crew.

Did you guys notice this?

If you start at the lowest low in recent swings, and draw the line up to the recent swing high…

Are you fib lovers ready for this?

You are going to love this.

Going from the low to the recent high and drawing the fib retracements…

Todays’s low (and reversal) WAS EXACTLY AT THE FIB LINE!!!!!!

See chart!!!

FIBS HAVE MAGIC PREDICTIVE POWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
