lots of upcoming econ data. this market is meant to take money away from the impatient. It is not a swing market, it is a chop market right now. It is best to sit on hand until a better direction comes along. With that said, got some qqq puts yesterday that paid 15%. Scale out half, raised stops.

still true today. Buyers not stepping up as they should. Still in sell mode, albeit very choppy so it can easily go the other way. sp500 is also in a clear h&s on the hourly chart, i mean it's such a clear pattern. Lots of names are also in a more dominant bearish trend, like msft.
buying some puts on qqq for next friday expiry. just my opinion. I don't think buyers stepped up today to regain control of the action from last week. Tight stops of 10% loss.

MSFT below 255 won't be good. getting some puts if it can close below there.

This is why big boys always eat, sellers stalled a bit to let the market go up and sideways, and then sold into it.
