None. Sell stops stay at ~ 10,890 Jun to go short 25% net allocated

Comments:
Nice first kiss of the red line ups the probs that it will be broken
No indication of the extent of the break is given…

Comments:
Off topic - It may be premature… but for the first time in literally years, I am including rates and spreads in the trading info I look at…
Note: Not saying rates will actually be more or less of a factor than before
…not that the ‘carry’ is going away
… or Treasuries will be another dumb bubble
.. or…
just thinking rates may start taking turns more often in the crowds’ cycle of ‘dominant concerns’

Re: The $!(V@# / DOW Spread

Line Changes:
None really. Still scooting inactive red lines around

Position Changes:
Stopped out. About half of it went off yesterday. The rest today. Flat

Order Changes:
None.

Comments:
Nice first kiss of StayLine, upping the odds is will be broken.
But also closed there... Will likely aggressively ‘trail’ up into this rally.

SP to 1200. & up to .618 retracement of the major 'correction' of last couple years...

Climbing a wall of worry or climbing a wall of q.e. ?

Re: The $!(V@# / DOW Spread

Line Changes:
Activated, then deactivated current Red sell line. If it breaks today will work into a position with limits next week. The next / tentative Red sell line will most likely be active right out the gate

Position Changes:
None. Flat

Order Changes:
None.

Comments:
2 charts. attached. One from before opening and one from a few minutes ago.
Nice first kiss of the red line. Ups the odds it will be broken. No projection as to extent though.
Smoke on the water – this time for real ... cold summer?
Busy day fitting this in, forgetting something else I was going to say…
have a great weekend.
