Summary:
SPY managed to coil back up to the 210.05 area as the daily mini pup muscled the SPY grind. We scalped MU initially longs off the super fib and daily lower bbs clusters then hit shorts later off the 17 area rejection on 1 min mini inverse pup reversions. BABA was nice to us on both shorts. SPY still keeps trying to coil based on the daily mini pup but dry climate came it quickly this morning. Closed out the morning with + $425 profits.

Summary:
SPY chopped in a tight range up to 209.21 fib to 208.81 fib, then attempted the seed wave trigger on 208.57 breaks but that has been played out so much that transparency may be too obvious. We got wiggled out of LOCO SHORT at 14.76 to stop out at 15.07 on reversions. We scaled in heavy on JWN SHORT at 79.40avg as it popped through a super fib at 78.90, 79.25 fib and stinky 5s upper range at 79.60 where we added heaviest size as it peaked out and formed a 1-minute mini inverse pup and MSH trigger on the 79.50 breaks to scale out 78.99, 79.18, 79.26, 79.29 and 79.24, out + .41, + .22, + .14, + .11 and + .16. Closed out the morning with + $1,188 profits and the week with + $5,056 profits.
