JDT, when SPY closes below 111.00 and QQQQ closes below 44.00, the market will meet two goals target.
1. Fill the last Friday morning gap. 2. Reach 106.50 for SPY.
The internal market is crippling.
1. Natural Gas is breaking down. 2. Financials are weak. 3. VIX is bouncing off the strong support level at 20. 4. Unemployment continues to rise. 5. Forclosures continues to rise. 6. Dubai is in debt.
And the number this morning sucked. 48 or so vs. 51 expected. i think it was ISM number, but not sure. Below 50 is shrinking (not growing) economy. Wow, natty gas is getting slaughtered. NG is the real indicator of health of U.S. economy.
and retail numbers sucked, too. But....PCP is hitting highs (my SnP indicator stock) and gold and silver are rallying again. AND, the four clowns on fast money (lunch preview) all said to short or sell today. that is not good, they are usually wrong.
just trying to convince myself. got pissed off at work so I went for a walk to get some fresh air.
I got an email about revising my estimate completion date. well it would have met the completion date if it didn't sit around in the process waiting for approval for 4 weeks.
.25% is .0025, right? on a $50,000 that's $125 'tax'? is that on both buy and sell? so that's $250? so much for trying to scalp anything. You'd have to hit home runs to survive.
Will it apply to the mini futures ?
I won't be trading if it is on the amount. odds are better at the casino then.
gcl, I am in. long SDS, SRS and TZA. this market is freak'n strong. I do not get it. may have to cover for a loss is they do the usual afternoon rally

ReplyDeletewatching IBM and GS. IBM needs to roll over. AMZN is weak, as is V and MA
ReplyDeletec'mon SRS, be a good etf and follow your friend SKF.
ReplyDeletethat might be the break (itraday trend line) in SnP right there. I sure hope it holds
ReplyDeleteThe market has been hovering around like this the past 3 days. One way or another something gotta gives.
ReplyDeletefinally a decision has been made ;)
ReplyDeletetoo bad I had no position.

I have been saying that SPY needs to close below 111.00 and QQQQ below 44.00 in order to close the last Friday morning gap.
ReplyDeleteThe SPY target is 106.50 area.
I know, I know ;)

ReplyDeleteI think it would bankrupt me faster.
