Could you please create a thread in the journals section where you just post your daily "thoughts & explanations" instead of posting a new ridiculous thread in the trading forum every day? Thank you.

S2007S is the cloned bearish twin of stock_trad3r

Let's assume one party (a big trading firm, a trading desk, etc.) is "manipulating" the market in their preferred direction in your scenario. Doesn't that offer a risk free profit for other, bigger market participants to counter-manipulate that trade and force them to cover at a loss? There is...

Here is a pic of athlonmank8 gambli.., err I mean trading after his amazing ETFC long trade:

Another worthless thread.

GOOG and AAPL? Why not go for weak charts. Financials, Lenders, REITs, Retailers. These charts all look like puke, I'd enter new shorts here when they try to touch their 50SMAs on low volume again. I'm short stuff like SHLD BSC AVB EK MAS VNO KIM HRB SLG ACAS EQR DDR LTD BX. Why short...

Do you expect strangers on message boards to lay it out to you? Goto Amazon and order 1-2 books (don't go overboard, it's all the same stuff) and read up yourself: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/002-9999929-6256843?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=value+investing&x=0&y=0

lol Yea it's all rational, planned manipulation and totally not merely the byproduct of trades of 100,000s irrational chaotic market players. How long have you been trading? Welcome to the markets, this is called a short covering rally. Write that down.

Not manipulated. Statistically, after multiple heavy downdays a strong bounce comes, sooner or later. Has nothing to do with manipulation. It's merely a reversion to the mean (as the % distance from the moving averages has become 'too great', whatever that is).

In 1999 it was called the "cash burn rate" wasn't it :p

Somebody will scoop up the debt for pennies on the dollar and juice out any value (mortgage payments, foreclosures) possible.

First, Cramer is cheerleading the 2:30pm spike: Jim Cramer OVERSOLD 1/8/2008 2:34 PM EST "Ah the making of an oversold rally--check out Apple's move. Google, too. And RIMM...here we go again..." Then, we tank 15 ES points within 45 minutes so Cramer panics and posts this Jim Cramer...

Right, you're real smart. You almost blew up over a single position in CROX: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=108609 Good luck with your gambling addiction.

ETFC trades like if it's going bankrupt anytime soon. That's the message of the chart. Note I said "like if...", because nobody knows things for certain. You buy this dog in a steep downtrend and you're playing roulette unless you are some type of deep value investor with a piece of insight...

There you go, it's at $2.41 on my screen now, down 15.2% on the day.

"I'll buy Enron when it goes below $5.00, damn cheap!"

Congrats, you went 200% net short after 6 down days! Good luck, you will need it.
