    Man, it's Tuesday now, the next day...had to finesse my trades as I added in on the collapse. It's at 5840 but had collapsed to 5732. I managed to exit everything around 5835 at break even. Now, I need to reassess. Didn't expect that utter collapse yesterday and today.

    The SPX is hovering around 5800. I want to enter, but...something seems off here. It should be good value, but it seems strangely "hovering"

    I feel like I've returned to a ghost town here

    I feel like buying at SPX 5700 is what makes sense. But the gambling instinct makes me wonder if entering at 5780 is not a good idea. And in many cases, it might be. But, capital preservation is not entirely stupid, either.

    think we get the nfp’s tomorrow AM. i’m wondering how much of the bad news is now priced into this market. the nasdaq recently entered an official correction. i think the spuz will eventually follow.

    looks like that spx 5700 is just a stones throw away now frank. a good call as usual. :thumbsup:

    Yeah, it got close to SPX 5700 [5711 to 5812]...I kept entering and existing from 5720 to 5750...and earlier 5755 to 5810...a lot of "day trading"...but successful...trying to get the hang of that...less emphasis on swing trading in this volatile environment...it's pretty interesting working that switch, but it seems the right thing to do these days
