a hard copy of the lines I feel are most important....especially that 44 area...that is critical today...I'd like to see that area fail and go down to daily pivot today

Still one-time-framing higher and the market is trying to form second set of single prints.
Be careful with shorts: 2454.25 (O/N high) now within reach.
Next probable target is 2458.25 (single print from 8/17)

I wonder Bruce if 2458 to 2460 area is a spot to sell those calls? The break down point from 8/17

And with that 2458.25 (single print from 8/17) reached, I have no idea what is next.
Tomorrow is the last trading day of August 2017, and monthly one-time-framing higher did not cease.

Thanks Bruce, for all the time and energy you put into your daily videos and charts.

too late for me....I sold the 2450 calls that expire Friday but luckily bought the 2455 for protection to limit losses

Nothing like getting slapped around, Usually, you are doing the slapping Bruce.

pulled the plug one tic in front of that R1 retest...leaving two runners on and retest of 58.50 will stop these out.......would need a big sell off ( and be able to hold - which are both doubtful) to make this day positive......but at least I got one good trade today....LOL....went 1 for 5 ....selling now would be nice as my sold options could use a boost to take back some losses...will go for 52.75 on one runner and leave the other for who knows where ??? I don't know....
