Hello Ira,

Thank you for explanation. I hope I got it in general.

Do  I understand correctly that

a) 2 cicles are working now: long 37 1/16 AND short 34 1/8?

b) today was entry on short side - short QQQ 34 1/8 ?

c)  you mentioned stops ("if you were trading one of the longer cycles
you  never  exited  because your stop wasn't hit.") What stops you are
referring here?


WBR, Alex
