Does anyone know what the diference is between a DELL 30" (not DELL specifically, any monitor brand) monitor and getting a 42" LCD TV/Monitor (i.e. Vizio) You can get 42" LCD TV/monitor for under $700 and the 30" monitors for for almost $1,300 plus you have to either get the low end $400 video...

Oh yeh, look at the poll at the top. At one point everyone was more bullish then bearish and the market kept dropping. Now look how skewed it is to the bearish side. The market has a way of running in the shorts just before that 1000 point drop you spoke about. Chanster, I'm still on...

Why would you say that. If you're a swing trader, you have to change with the market. Right now it's the long side that's working. What am I supposed to do, go short and pray that they stop running the market? Would you tell a day trader they are a joke if they are long the morning and...

Chooo!! Chooo!!! I think I can, I think I can. The market is showing some resilience and new leadership is slowly taking hold. I spent a lot of time this weekend pouring over charts and found that the place to be is long. There was a sudden surge of setups that crept up over the last four...

I've been watching him on Fox on Sunday mornings as a guest commentator on the 4 different shows, and he has polished his approach overtime. But I do agree, he does some things that would make most look at him like a rookie. But supposedly he was trained by one of the best options traders...

Lower rates should spur more borrowing, which in turn should accelerate the economy, raising demand for oil. More money means the possibility of accelerating inflation, hence higher gold (inflation hedge). The Fed is in a pickle. Inflation has shown signs of topping, but not clearly. The...

Solar power, if they can bring the cost and size of storage down, could threaten oil. There are whole communities going up using both. the cost of building and recovery have significantly dropped. If they can get it to mass production, their could be a wide adoption of the technology over the...

Careful, if someone told you what you wrote, you'd advise them to take a break. I don't mind going long, but tighten up the criteria, and keep the leash short.

You know, I hate oil, LOL. I just feel that at these levels or higher, the incentive to speed up production in alternative energy is so great, that ultimately, these prices will hurt the demand for oil. I believe that the Saudi's know it and have been resistant to calls for an oil output...

I don't buy this rally, just seems to quick for me. Lack of leadership is the problem. But that doesn't mean it can't develop. Where do I stand? I haven't gotten short, it was too early for that, and didn't move completely to cash since I did believe a small rally would develop. Can't...

Anyone else notice how the polls swung from bullish to bearish before today's FOMC meeting?

Calling levels is a fun way to pass time, but not base trading decisions on, you are correct. As a daytrader, there should always be ways to make money. As a swing/long term trader, not true. No one can be consistent day in day out. Especially in volatile markets.

I was wondering where everyone went. Can't argue with the follow through day and rally confirmation. Only one problem, we lack leadership. I got two long positions, working well, but don't trust this. FED statement seemed geared to making the market happy, not their job. Still believe...

Here's another controversial statement: Any signs of multiple rate cuts would drive the market down not up. You say I'm nuts, not really. You see, if I'm a corporate borrower, and I can live w/o financing right now, why would I borrow at current rates, when I know I can borrow at...

Comparing the Tuesday mini meltdown to the '87 crash is like comparing Apples to Oranges. The '87 crash happened towards the end of a correction after the market had already moved down and Tuesday happened off of a 52 week high. To think a correction can end in 3 weeks is also ridiculous...

Moderator - Can you change the Bear in the title of this thread to Bull. Thanks

Yes, it is. Let's get the indexes to rally to the 50DMA over the next week or two and then the short raid can begin.:mad:

Even though the media wants to get ahead of the story and predict the worst, they seem to be under orders to try and calm the public at the same time. To me, it smells fishy. The other reason I am so bearish at this point, I have more setups looking like dead cat bounces then good...

Bear Trap- A false signal that the rising trend of a stock or index has reversed when it has not. Bull Trap A false signal indicating that a declining trend in a stock or index has reversed and heading upwards when, in fact, the security will continue to decline. You are correct, my fault.

Any news already discussed on CNBC or other major publications is already priced in. Agreed. The question is, is the worst case scenario priced in, or is there something we're missing that isn't priced in, just yet. I love the Bull, I just don't see it right now. Need more shakeout time...
