$SPY 260211 697 Put(SPY260211P697000.US)

Boosted by the positive news of the US January Non-Farm Payrolls + Unemployment Rate,

it surged $3.69 pre-market,

At 08:30, I watched the pre-market video by Stock Alpha Research on YouTube,

didn't watch carefully, heard the main strategy was to go long,

so after the market opened, I kept waiting in my mind to go long,

After the open, as planned,

I monitored the movements of $SPDR S&P 500(SPY.US),

$Invesco QQQ Trust(QQQ.US) and

$Pro Ultr Cvix Shrt Futures(UVXY.US),

found the volatility was low in the first 15 minutes,

waiting for a long opportunity,

$Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares(TSLL.US)

The first ticker I focused on, waiting for a long opportunity,

because I still hold 1 share, which made me want to go long all the time,

I'll sell it during tomorrow's night market session,

$Walmart(WMT.US)

10:06:37 $127.8350 => 10:10:51 $128.0550,SHORT,

At this level, seeing a double top not breaking,

tried to short,

it actually traded in a range for an hour before choosing to go up,

13:10:13 $129.3300 => 13:16:10 $129.3865,SHORT,

Took profits at the high, bearish on the 5-minute chart,

13:22:12 $129.0200 => 13:26:10 $129.1700,SHORT,

Second entry, it then traded in a range for an hour,

$GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF(NVDL.US)

10:13:54 $88.8412 => 10:17:56 $89.4650,SHORT,

Expected further decline, but a pullback hit the stop-loss,

10:32:41 $88.6700 => 10:37:32 $88.6000,LONG,

Bet on a bounce, judgment was correct,

but got scared by the long shadow and sold early,

10:39:55 $89.3600 => 10:42:10 $89.5225,LONG,

Second entry, took profits correctly,

12:02:09 $89.4600 => 12:06:08 $87.7162,SHORT,

The candle at 12:01 was longer than the previous ones, a signal for a trend change,

Too eager to make money, bet on further decline,

Opening a short was a mistake,

Summary,

1️⃣ $S&P 500(.SPX.US) hit a high of 6993.480 points at 09:32,

It was still suppressed by the 7000.000 point level today,

2️⃣ Because the broader market is suppressed,

even though $Tesla(TSLA.US) is currently at a low level,

in order to keep the $S&P 500(.SPX.US) below 7000.000 points, it will still be sold.
