unreal

Have been watching this 3d set up on the SPY weekly figuring it might initiate a long signal in a week or so, but today's daily action was a trigger to enter long.  A pullback on the daily may take a while, but this higher time frame momentum wave is a doozy if there is follow-through overhead. 

FAZ end of day

FAZ long entry into the end of the day.  A 3d setup;  Entered on the 1st arrow (to the left) but scratched it.  Entered again on the 2nd middle arrow, though a better entry may have been to wait for the 50% retrace (3rd up-arrow.  Trailed stop as price tested the open and half taken off at the 100% projection.  Second half taken off in the last 10-minutes.

trend day

Mentioned last night that the SPY was potentially setting up a 3d long criteria on the daily time frame.  This morning started off with a 3d setup on the 15-minute time frame.  Worked quite well.  When I first brought up this 3d criteria months ago I had mentioned that it's typical of a short-covering phenomenon; today was a perfect example where the daily was anticipated to set up this way and the intra-day time frame was aligned as well.

Here is an updated chart following last nights post.  Bear in mind that it is a higher time frame setup.  The anticipation here is to look for a gap fill, or attempted gap fill. 

more of the same

Nearly every one of the 25 names I watch set up the 3d criteria going into the close yesterday, a scenario which was hinting at today's relief "rally".  These wide gaps are more tricky, so you either enter on a faster chart or wait for a pullback later in the morning.  All of my watch-list technically triggered the 3d entry on the close of the first 5-min bar, so you could possibly just enter and place a stop below the 50% retracement or whatever support level you feel is reasonable.
AMZN - same resistance pivot as yesterday turned support today, 2 entries

CNX - was ready early

better viewed on a faster chart, the stop was very close by

CAT - ready shortly after CNX, formed a nice cup & handle to enter.  Would have been a good one to re-enter later in the day as well

CDE: Buy div. on the open.  Target PDL and prev. day's breakdown point

GS: similar setup as previous

MEE: 3d criteria setup on a pennant breakout.

RVBD: momentum buy divergence on a 3d setup:
