Need a clean define setups. The better the setup on multiple time frame the better chance you will have of making money. The $SPY is way to extended to try to trade it.
no setups here...
and the market is not a low float stock u cant chase it up!
also maybe try using SSO its an etf that moves a bit faster then spy
@pstark I didn't notice that it was nearing intraday resistance. Very good pt.
@Nape so when would be a better time to trade it? Are saying that the market needs to have 1 or 2 down months before SPY would be tradeable (i.e. a full out correction)?
@kunal Didn't know about $SSO. And on the market's float its interesting b/c I KNOW that but in the heat of the moment I didn't consider that fact. Simple and valuable pt.
It dont necessarily have to be down one or two months. The $SPY just needs to pullback and setup again; then you would look for a clean intraday setup to trade it. If you have a good setup on the daily chart, 30min chart and 5min chart at the same time, that will allow the stock to move in a clean manner.

Your first entry was the top of an overextended candle coming into intraday resistance. The other entries and sale were terrific.
