The best I can wish you is low slippage - the low volume and further decline
in open interest reported last evening for Wednesday's decline gave me the
final nudge to go long this morning on yesterday's inside day setup. It was
a very low risk entry because it opened down, declined to within a tick of
Thursday's inside day low, and then rallied. I did my initial long on a stop
one tick above Wednesday's 677 high and added on the retracement when no
significant selling materialized on the breakout. This is still early in the
game and I'm in for only half of a position. There should be time to add
additional longs if/when it tests the 790 area and retraces. There remain
some negative possibilities - a completed ABC correction on 20Sep with
another major decline ahead or an extended w.4. The low of the inside day
should hold and it would nullify the entire bullish scenario if it is taken
out today.
