Healthy day of selling in the stock market yesterday…
Amazing how many traders have lost perspective. One day of selling has everyone running for the hills. Stocks need to fluctuate a little, this gives us better levels to read the tape. Straight up or straight down is tough. Let’s embrace some different price action.

Day Trading Game Plan: The SPY ETF Outlook
SPY price action trade lower and below the open for most of the day. This is healthy. The SPY was near resistance and overbought. $206.45 is the 20 ema on the daily chart. This is the area to watch for new buying.

Pete’s Notes:
- Casino stocks broke down yesterday. I still like them long.
- SKX and TWTR have room to go on the short side.
Charts in Focus
ATVI | Activision Blizzard Inc.
One of my go-to trades is a two day pullback closing on the lows both days. A lower open in ATVI is a buy on the first sign of support. (Be sure to read the news on this stock before you place a trade)
