About

cowboycharts is a shared trading journal. A small group of analysts writes one consensus outlook for SPX/ES each week, then keeps a daily log as the week plays out. When the week closes, the outlook gets an honest grade (hit, partial or miss) and moves into the archive.

The Team

• Cowboy (owner) — the head honcho, charting enthusiast

Disclosures: not financial advice

Everything on cowboycharts is analysis and opinion, written for education and discussion. Nothing here is a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell or hold any security, future, option, currency or cryptocurrency, and nothing here is personalized investment, tax or legal advice. We don't know your finances, goals or risk tolerance.

cowboycharts is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, commodity trading advisor or futures commission merchant. Our authors write here as individuals sharing their own market views.

Positions. The authors may hold, open or close positions in any instrument discussed, including trades described in a post, before or after it is published and without notice. A setup in a post is the author's own plan, not a signal for anyone else to follow.

Risk. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Options, futures, leveraged products and crypto can lose value quickly, and some can lose more than the money put in. Only trade money you can afford to lose, and size for your own risk.

Forecasts and grades. Levels, scenarios and wave counts are conditional plans, not predictions or guarantees. Our hit, partial and miss grades are our own honest scorecard; they aren't audited performance, and past calls say nothing certain about future ones.

Data. Charts and positioning come from third-party sources such as TradingView, Yahoo Finance and Unusual Whales. They may be delayed, revised or wrong, and we don't guarantee their accuracy. Check prices with your own broker before acting on anything.

Do your own research, and talk to a licensed professional about decisions that fit your situation. By using this site, you accept that you are responsible for your own trading decisions.
