Summary
SPY gapped to peak off the 210.63 daily MSH area and managed to oscillate back down to the daily 5 period ma at 209.64 setting up a daily make or break as stochastics peaked. The rhythm was sketchy today again as the algos were all over the place thinning out liquidity to razor thin levels at times. This made for very sloppy trading. We got chopped wickedly on MYL both ways. HOG rug pulled so quickly off the 15 min 5 period ma.  UA gave some profits. We scaled into JUNO LONG at 57.65avg, trimmed down half at 56.40, out – 1.25, taking the rest overnight. The rhythm has been very shaky this week with some nasty headfakes leading to crazy slippage. Closed out the day with - $1,923 losses.
