10/12/2009 1 pm update: NQ

  • NQ showing rw to ES again...NQ trading down to pivot support at 1730ish, while ES has not traded down to pivot support 1067ish...
  • the A/D lines and the TRINS for the NYSE and the NASDAQ are both bullish, so i will give the benefit of the doubt to the bulls, and look at this dip down to pivot support at 1730ish as a gift...

  • long 1 NQZ09 at 1731.50...
  • since i started swing trading the NQ on a discretionary basis in july, this is the first NQ contract that i considered putting a tight stop under...after much deliberation, i have decided not to...if the NQ sells off, then i will slowly add to the position and work my average price lower...
  • though i am allowing for the possibility of a stall at ES 1075 and NQ 1735ish and perhaps another whoosh down, my longer term bias remains bullish on both of these vehicles...
  • offering out this NQZ09 at 1746.50, which i wouldn't expect to be hit until the monday night or tuesday day session....
  • bidding for another contract at 1712.50....
Disclosure: Long NQZ09.

***remember this is an illustration of what i am trading and my thinking...it is not a recommendation for you or anyone else to buy or sell this or any other security...trade at your own risk**
