US markets really aren’t showing the global carnage that’s going on. Emerging markets are getting hit, European banks are getting smoked, and the Turkish Lira is getting smoked.<\/p>\n

There’s talk of contaigion. That all this global instability will spillover and we’ll have a 1997 event.<\/p>\n

I’m not seeing it yet. Markets are too strong, and there’s a LOT of back and fill that can happen between now and then.<\/p>\n

The simplest thing to do is focus on liquid stocks in solid uptrends and look for some blood. We don’t need a crash, just a little shake and bake at these levels.<\/p>\n

Trade #1: SPX<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And the best place for liquidity is going to be the index itself.<\/p>\n

2800 is the key pivot level, which coincides with the rising 50 day moving average.<\/p>\n

I think a lot of eyeballs are on that level, and it’s a “rookie” level… meaning that buying right at that level will not give you the best risk reward.<\/p>\n

Instead, I’ve got my sights set on the gap fill from early July. If we can get that, especially quickly, then that will give us great risk reward.<\/p>\n

Trade Setup<\/strong><\/p>\n

Expected Price: 2760<\/p>\n

Sell to Open SPX Sep 2670\/2665 Put Spread<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tier 1: Enter at 0.70, Exit at 0.20<\/p>\n

Tier 2: Enter at 1.00, Exit at 0.50<\/p>\n

Tier 3: Enter at 1.30, Exit at 0.80<\/p>\n

Trade #2: COP<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We have had continued success with this name, and it still remains the strongest large cap oil in the space. I’m looking for a pull into the halfway point of the trading range– that second yellow line on the chart.<\/p>\n

Trade Setup<\/strong><\/p>\n

Expected Price: 67.50<\/p>\n

Sell to Open COP Sep 62.50\/60 Put Spread<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tier 1: Enter at 0.30, Exit at 0.05<\/p>\n

Tier 2: Enter at 0.45, Exit at 0.20<\/p>\n
