Attempt
trade for 07/11/2001 Wednesday $
Stop at around 1191.75,
selling bias, target 1175.75. (Possiblly before the opening.)
Try not to risk more than 2 pts. If market did not open gap down,
chasing short side will be riskier than reversing to buy side
for a bounce. Dow Jones:IF 10170 support is holding, a bounce
target is 10320: "or" 350-400 pts (to 10550 area "if"
there is a surprise rate cut on Wednesday or Thursday this week.)
After 8:00 update: This 1190 will be tested again before
close. Afternoon Update: Stop 1190.25-1189.75, scalping
short, 1/2 target 1185.75, 2/2 profit taking 1183 or lower; expected
close 1183.50-1187.50. [ Result: morning
hi 1192, day low 1174, then spiked to 1193 after our 8:00 update;
afternoon high 1190, we made the short, low 1180; closed 1186.]

Expected trading range
1200-1208 before 8:30. Monday's afternoon stop 1208.25 still valid
for 2 hours after the opening. Aggressive traders: stop 1208.25,
scalp to 1201 area; then get ready to scalp buy side for 1210-1212.
Conservative: Stop 1199, scalp buy side
for 1209-1211 testing. Be careful, if market can not take out
1212.75 at around 8:30, it will be back down to test 1195-6.
Afternoon update: stop 1202.50, selling bias, target 1189-1192
testing. [Result: 1212.75 intact, market
plunged to 1186, closed 1186.50]
Attempt
trade for 07/09/2001 Monday $
Our
expected target 1186-1192 achieved at Sunday Globex (as of 11:30PM,
low 1189.25). At 11:30PM Globex sp bounced 9 points from the
low. If the opening is below 1202.50, try to "scalp"
short side one more time and ready to reverse to buy side. Keep
in mind, short selling is very risky now. Conservative traders:
better wait to buy for reversal. For how long this bounce will
last? Depends on this 1202.50 pivot/stop. If Monday's close
is above it, 118x low should hold for a while.
Attempt trade for 07/06/2001
Friday $
Still selling bias in the morning.
A reversal from 1206 is likely. Before 8:00 AM, stop 1223.75,
selling bias, target 1212-1207. If 1207 broken.... target 1192-1185.
Attempt
trade for 07/05/2001 Thursday $
On
Wednesday, sp settled at 1240. Market plunged at Globex. As
we said... even if sp had bounced to 125x on Monday-Tuesday,
market would be bearish on Thursday-Friday; we had given 5 reasons
in WarRoom. Market plunged at Globex. Looks like this is the
long expected flush! If 1225 broken, next target 121x. Opening
Update: Trading range, 1240-1227. Stop 1240 or 1243, selling
bias, target 1227. Don't buy high, don't sell low. [Open
