THE SHORT-TERM TREND IS UP, I HOLD NO POSITION OVERNIGHT
Slightly bearish biased toward tomorrow, at least not expecting another huge up day, if not red. Two reasons:
The short position held by Cobra Impulse System was stopped out today with gains. But if SPY breakdown below today’s low and close in red tomorrow, then it’s another short which had 70% winning rate for the past 2,000 trading days.
