Trade Ideas for 06/11/09

Today the S&P traversed its entire June range 1.5 times. It gapped up at the open around 950, dropped down to 928, then retraced half that decline by closing at 939. After a week of this holding pattern, the market may be ready to take off one way or the other tomorrow, with the catalyst being the auction of the 30-year note.

Today we sold UWM for a loss and UYG for breakeven and bought FITB. Today's gap up open was a prime spot to book some profit, especially on the laggards.

Hi Chrib,

Do you think we can enter CPSL now. It got very good upside.

Thanks,
RK

I don't know. Personally I would wait for a better setup. CPSL is streaky though, and it could be gearing up for another one of those 20+% one-day runs. I never know with this one.
