Tweets Rundown for the week ending Aug 20th.

  1. Change of heart. Covering the whole short position. Will look at it again on Sunday night. Have a good weekend everyone. $USU
  2. Covering half my bond shorts on this dive lower. Will probably go home flat and reload next week. $USU
  3. Adding to the bond short but tightening the stop. If we lose 1060 in the ESUs I will probably close and look for a new entrance. $USU
  4. I covered my very small profit in 10s. Holding the bond position. Thinking I might be on the wrong side. $USU $TYU
  5. Bond short tripped. Now position a bit more than modest. I posted on the blog my position on bonds. Now backing it up. $USU
  6. Looking to short bonds on a stop below. Action quite volatile in the early going so far. $USU.
  7. Added to my TYUs short this morning. Holding a tight stop though. Market is not giving up as the buyers scour the dips. $TYU
  8. I wonder if the robots attempt to wipe out the market overnight...does that mean I should be short? Looking both ways tomorrow. $SPX
  9. B'berg folks just said that the movement in the bond mkt is justified based on the claims data. I have started a small shorts in 10s. $TYU
  10. Covering my VIX futs now. Right at resistance on the 30 minute. S&P is oversold. Might reload. $VIX $SPX
  11. Greatest selling momentum I have seen since early July. Will it repeat the buying momentum spikes yesterday and reverse? $SPX
  12. Looks like we have chosen the bottom of the range going forward. I have expanded my hedges a bit though a bounce would not surprise. $SPX
  13. Once again, bounced off the bottom of the range. 1084/1100 seems to be the game (as I noted this morning at my blog. Neutral at moment.
  14. Is it me or is everyone buying the TBT, shorting USTs or shorting the TLT now? $TNX
  15. With that said, I am taking the 4 points and saying thank you. Back to neutral in the SPUs. $SPX
  16. 2 days in a row where my buying power indicator was off the charts in the 1090s and so far mkt has turned away both times. $SPX
  17. Impressive move by crude into the pit close. As if the API report and other fundamentals do not exist. Good resistance at 76. $CLV
  18. Upside stops cleaned out around 1098? I took a small short for a trade. Stop over 1100. $SPU
  19. Vol not treating me well today. Holding the trade but a bit surprised by the move. I have put out stops just in case. $VIX
  20. Looks like someone is goosing the SPs again. Just a bit later than yesterday. $SPX
  21. CL report better than API. Demand up but supply rising. Basically inline overall though gas missed a tad. Not supportive. $WTIC
  22. CL seems to be pricing in a weak DOE report this AM. This sets things up for a reversal if the report does not follow thru on API's. $WTIC
  23. Adding aggressively to my VIX position this morning. Thinking correction in stocks to continue and vol to rise a bit. $VIX
  24. Interesting reversal in 10s from sub 2.6 to above it. One day does not make a trend but a cont'd equity rally might help rates higher. $TNX
  25. I started a position in the VIX near the close. Looking for this correction to continue though lows are probably still in. $SPX
  26. Going through the overnight data on ES - someone just pushed 1000s of mini's thru in the normal quiet hrs of morning. Missed this! $SPX
  27. Weak API numbers. Not good for crude. Big jump in gasoline rel to expectations. Distilates up as well. Could pressure CLV tomorrow. $WTIC
  28. Correction is still in play but I am flat as a pancake tonight waiting for the next sign. Follow thru needed for the bulls tomorrow. $SPX
  29. Stopped out on the breakout. Resistance right at 1094 area. $SPX
  30. Bulls determined to take this market higher today. Looks like I am on the wrong side of this market at the moment. $SPX
  31. Buyers are holding the SPUs up well here around 1084. Wonder how many stops are underneath? I have tightened my upside stop. $SPX
  32. Impressive jump in IP but the tumble in the CEO Index still a headwind. Need biz to come back quickly. Keep the bull alive.
  33. Back on the short side of the trade now. Market holding in. Thinking we have one down day before friday. $SPX
  34. I am positioned for an afternoon dive. Not sure yet but have the stops in place. Action is just horrid. Yet again, it is August. $SPX
  35. Key point for the S&P 500. Momentum signal to buy. Needs to follow through over 1080 in SPUs to confirm. $SPX
  36. Guy on CNBC just said that housing is a great investment...this is the lingo we heard all the way up to the bubble...not good for my outlook
  37. Not a good open at all. No bounce whatsoever and everyone so very much bearish.
