DGM score came in solid bullish yesterday evening (Dec 9), after a market pullback. The trade was a speculation on a bounce. However, SPX traded mostly flat and in fact closed marginally lower today (Dec 10). Despite that, the trade was able to make a marginal gain (0.22%). Instrument: SPXL (Direxion Daily S&P500 Bull 3X Shares), after-hours entry, near-close exit.

  • Speculating on next day bounce
  • Entry: SPXL @ $67.65 (average, extended hours limit orders)
