My StockCharts is ChiOsc(3,10)
That was default years ago and I have never fiddled with it.
Further up or down for IWM 117 puts ?
Look at the queues. No problem. See what other traders are doing or bidding to do?
Edit: 1680 x 6 and .82 x 1.07 last trade was .98
Similar stuff on NFLX. Look at Chaiken divergence downward during a tiring stock advance. I mention it often, Beer sees it as well but I don't think many others do.
dotnet,
don't forget that the consistent divergence of Chaiken in this set of indicators. I watch for it against a tiring advance of a stock. It can be an almost sure fire advance indicator when combined with the other indicators I mentioned and yours as well.
Thanks. Was looking for failure of the IWM stock climb from the open up to and maybe stalling at R1. mid 1 oclock half hour.
Three 5-minute semi doji candles just before 2:00 plus RSI and WM%R falling through 50, and Especially the Chaiken Osc had been diverging downward against to stock rise most of the day.
About as sure as one can get on specific indicators with a long record in those combinations.

Maybe another puts scalp attempt later if this stock retrace fails. My usual "standard" indicators should show it. We'll see.
Take this little cash now.
Yes, that's just my own abbreviation. Forgive.
I have posted that way only infrequently for some years on this board. Few ever seem interested, so it's not often. I use it heavily in these special situations, but not often on most scalp attempts.
Edit: I am watching the TSLA puts "ques" now. Need to. The usual indicators can be helped on this scalp attempt. That's my opinion, which is far from perfect, but good enough for me to spend the time required, which is very large.
Musk is being interviewed on CNBC now. Doesn't help me. I don't think so, but I'm poor at evaluating "news".
I do not have any decent way to guess at the TSLA/SolarCity likely cash flow prospects.
I tend to think maybe not enough.

Musk is pleased that ISS likes the TESLA/SolarCity deal.
Did I know that? No. Just the indicator reversals before 10 a.m.
We amateurs don't need to know the news. The market action on the indicators tell us what to do.
Thanks jeff.
TSLA 190 calls que showing a tad of strength. 2.60/3.05 but very few, 4/5

TSLA is hesitating at R2 but the 5-minute volume bars are continuing to be longer.
Watching for weakness in the que for my strike, 190 calls. Not much yet.
I'll take some calls off along on here.

Hi Caoi, smartone's indicators.
"not sure if you still use them"
He never, ever mentions them or describes how he uses them in his posts. There is no evidence that he does use them, or examples of effects.

I look at trading options on the Ameritrade ladder. Ask me for an issue and strike. I'll tell you what I see. It changes rapidly.
