9/14 pre-open

Stock futures declined to their 30-minute M/A twice last night.  This M/A has advanced to make an attractive entry point if Dec SP futures decline to .5% below it.  I sold 4% SDS at 30.88 to bring me to 10% SDS.  I still hold Dec DJ futures short with a stop at 10,507.

Silver rallied to new high.  I have a 2% short silver ETF that I will sell.  I will continue to hold short gold ETF 4% DZZ.  I have been waiting for an entry point in precious metals below the silver hourly M/A which has not been breached by .7% to the downside.  Therefore I am keeping powder dry for this opportunity (see the red line in the chart below):

  3. ? If you bought SDS @ 30.64 and sold @ 30.88 what are you using as your sell objective?
    Did you have a sell price intered after you purchased the SDS.

    Thanks,

  4. I have a portion of my position that I use for short-term trading. When SP futures hit the 30-minute M/A, that is a key M/A for me for the short term.

    Since the 8th, prices appear to have broken out of both an IH&S as well as a Cup with Handle. Very bullish to me.

  6. Yes, silver has broken to upside. I am looking to sell my tiny ZSL on weakness. Gold bumping against old highs gives me the opening for this to occur.

    Can you explain your wave forecast?

  8. I'm a relative newbie and despite staring at charts for a year I've yet to count correctly. The issue for me was trying to forecast the next wave; Fib retracement levels proved unpredictable. I now focus on patterns.

    My current best guess on Elliott Wave counts is that we have completed the second "2" in a 1-2, 1-2 and will soon have that "moment of recognition" when everyone decides to sell.
