B A B A and the IPO to Date FIBZ , 8 points between friends

A Chop was there. If u have Longer Term FIBZ Levels, and u have bids there GTC when the world looks like its coming to and end, and u automate bracket entry, stop, 1/2 half tgt and trail, order cxls order/whatever, u can take the emotion out-


This draw is as of 11/13 but takes in to account the IPO to ATH and the 50% RET was a very nice trade if placed ahead.  So 11/13/2014, plenty of time to put that order in if  you 'Trust in d' FIBZ'

N O A H by request

N O A H wow, the first FIBZ I did were 5YR on inception MONTHLY just to see what occurred. Geeze, why didn't u ask my this in 2013 or so, lol. Look how the stock rode the BUy ZONE,formed a Cup N Handle from 12-15-then broke out to 20's- Crazy FIBZ

Strong Uptrend, pullbacks have been profitable if bought- The last couple sessions however have Created OBGs(Open Body Gaps)- which do tend to get filled once a retracement sets in- Huge Volume Increase, no idea what Short Int is.
Net net, a pullback consolidation would be be nice but obviously breaking out- Next Possible slow down, aside from pullback on Monday is 25.05-

CY by request

CY is looking break out of an 18 Month HI/LO range and with the 200dMA {$14.12} about a buk ahead, a test area looms. A solid volume close above that 200dMA as well as that L/T Monthly Zone, could be a potential ripper-

DAILY FIBZ show a pullbakto 12.37 and potential oversold p/b to 12.20 as high probability profitable entry zones, a Close below 11.96 Changes trend back down

Friday Result

GPS attempted a breakout but settled back in

GPS attempted to move thru $42 several times but closed just above the November Month High of
40.65.
It is also still trading inside Month of October. Until we have a close and hold of 42.40ish, the stock may remain w/in the 40-42 range-

Here it is, my EOY SPY TARGET-

In Aug/Sep, my EOY TGT was 203-207. Based on MONTHLY Measured Move.
Well we have hit and surpassed, which strikes a caution nerve.
BUT, Based on Math.

Now My Target range is :

213.99  -  217.78.

Based on Custom FIBZ Projections.

it does 'feel' like a stretch -  but math is math.

Goldman Sax (stock) - my 'by default' short term boss-

If u believe in looking left to see right. there is a potential huge move in the works. Technically, iy must have success and holding power thru the mid 190's(having trouble even getting above lower 190's right now-) BUT if the ''genius' don't fail * (Footnote to awesome book 'When Genius Failed" Lowenstein -story of Long Term Capital'-  great great read -recommended by my friend( some M.I.T nerd, i mean genius, just kidding J.O') Well, the GS Swami's may just have some fireworks coming for the New Year.

 the Now Look , breaking above multi year levels, Thru 193ish and hold could be an explosion-

XOM , I guess patience worked

Most recent full Measured Move saw solid support 90.95-89ish, Today we reclaimed for a very nice move to almost 93-


http://content.screencast.com/users/MrSoul70/folders/Jing/media/2eb80eae-1f5e-4609-8c5f-db73b7037284/2014-12-01_1930.png



S P Y midday update 12/1

Again the $STUDY of Measured Moves and how to trade them increases Profit Probability-


Simply put , 6 days ago the SPY gapped up and traded inside the Measured Move(MM), from 204.16-207.84, but also had traded within the 1rst red candle(daily) post gap. Today it retraced to the BUY ZONES of 206-205.56-the 50/61.8% and bounced back up. It so happens that rumor of a quick fat finger caused the extent of that wick below the 61.8%, but regardless it has presently reclaimed the 50%, which is bullish and vwap is currently 205.94- which is still above supports or within the Buy Zone.

INSTITUTIONS vrs DAY/PROP TRADERS Vol. I

I thought I'd document my thoughts on the differences(mainly) between Institutional Trading( and some Vanilla or Value Hedge Fund) 
verses  Day or Prop or even Fast money Hedge Fund trading-

I have 21+ years in the business starting as a market maker, firm capital position trading,institutional coverage , moving on to direct institutional trading and now proprietary.

I think there are some misunderstandings about how the 'Big Boys' enter and exit trades or very large positions and what they want to see occur out of the gate verses a DT.

For purposes of having to keep typing 'Institutions and constantly getting hit w/ spell check for missing a 't' or 'u' , we will use PM(portfolio managers) and DT(day traders) PT(prop traders) :

    SCENARIO I :
PM wants to Buy/Sell :

When entering into a new large position or adding to existing ones(in most cases* will explain*),
a PM 'actually wants the stock to start coming in so they can scale. The last thing they want to see happen is have the stock go right up as soon as they've entered the market and began buying thus forcing them to pay up or chase knowing they have likely bought only a small fraction of a large(likely 7 or multiple 7 figure order.)

   ie). PM has 2.4mm ABC to buy. ABC trades 500-1mm a day(less or more etc)
                ABC is 35.50-35.52.  Current Volume= 280k.
                 --Sends broker or enters market him/herself electronically..dark pool etc
   a) Broker may or may not stop the PM on 50k on the offer(more less or none at all)-
           Broker'shops' whole or part of order to their other 'trusted' customers. Suddenly the stock is          35.70-35.72 on little volume. Depending on agency,net or whatever the details of the order are,the broker may have to put that print to the tape.(Mind you,all this likely happend within minutes of broker receiving order.
           The Broker prints the 50k @ 35.52(sld" or however the rule/type of order it is) and the stock is now $36 bid.
   So what was accomplished ? The PM bought 50k @ 35.52 and only has 2.35mm left to buy and now stock has moved 1.5% against them. PM is LIVID at Broker.

ENTER THE DAY TRADER:
  A Day Trader buys stock at 35.52 and is 36 bid almost immediately. WOOHOO!! And the heard of sheep commence buying and stock is 37- and 'There must be news !??' etc etc- Visions of  Happy Hour dancing in their heads !!

  > Now of course there could have been another PM 'Seller' on other side and the Broker's 'shop may have worked and the sides play nice,cross stock relatively in line give or take several 20 cent moves in which a DT is getting stopped out left and right by the volume algos-

The PM could have also entered the market via internal firm OMS or Dark Pools and either scenario may have or have not taken place regardless.

The point of this tidbit is that the Last thing a PM wants, when trying to find liquidity for a size order is Market Impact. Whereas the DT is hoping for Immediate Market Impact( in their favor of course)

This is not to bash Day or Prop Traders( being that I am one), it's to point out How PMs trade the bigger picture. 

Also it's not to say that's the only way  DT's  trade. Matter of fact, more and more DT'/PT's have very calculated and studied methodology loaded with creativity and solid thought out processes.
Very very difficult profession indeed. Huge failure rate, but i digress.

So  "Vol. I"  is to point out the difference of a DT wanting the trade to immediately go their way verses a PM in which case "going their way"  means buying a stock and having it continually, methodically going lower to improve their average knowing they have a lot more to buy(in most cases).
   We call that "AMMUNITION" . 
In most almost all cases DT/PTs don't have near the Ammo that a PM has.(Otherwise they wouldn't be considered a DT in most cases.)

>>>The same applies on the Selling side of a PM order or Shorting side of a DT order.
If a PM wants to Sell Large Position, last thing he wants to see is the stock immediately move lower, Unlike to DT taking on a new Short.

Vol. II to come.

Peace,

BP
