QQQ had a great opportunity to fall apart in the last 30 mins and so far didn't. We need to push back over 345 or certainly not out of the woods

For further clarification, my main trading setup has a whole monitor that is split between SPY and QQQ 5min charts with these major pivots plotted out. Between them, I have a $TICK chart.

So, I am very closely monitoring these for market alignment with whatever trade in an individual name I am trading with a diff monitor that has 5min, 1min, and 24s charts. Before planning my entry I am plotting the daily chart pivots in that name. Then using 5m chart for swing type entries. 1m and 24s charts I am using for daytrade entries / exits typically.

3rd monitor is exclusively for my broker (Order entry, Time&Sales, L2, etc.)
4th monitor is newsfeed and Bookmap (graphical full book L2 representation)

Crazy vid I ran across today. Cramer basically revealing the market manipulation in hedge funds.

Looking for feedback. So I have my MTTR March puts with the $20 strike. Needless to say they are upside down by about half. I am not opposed to just holding them and ignoring the paper loss until expiry. The current market situation has me considering the opportunity cost. If I eat the loss today/tomorrow and close them, I have half the cash currently held as collateral to invest down here in the current correction land. But then any profit I make has to overcome the loss i realize. But then, we also dont know if there is a bottom for MTTR.

Decisions, decisions.

^^ I did say an inside day is perfectly fine here. We can chop sideways all day and I still consider that constructive. ^^
