    I agree - your posts in hindsight or now wouldn't help me or anyone else. I think people post trades more for themselves (if in fact they are actual trades) to try to give them some accountability since most of us trade by ourselves. Thus, putting a pen to paper in terms of stop/target etc may...

    Great trade. Pretty impressive holding through all the mess. I was pretty surprised there wasn't more resistance at 90, not that we meaningfully got through it, but it didn't appear that there were tons of sellers there. I think AIG could cause some problems tomorrow but maybe the retail...

    ...you never post a trade Maybe if you ever did we could say if your trades were good or bad. I post trades in a chat room - not on this journal bc I dont have the time. So I am well aware I don't post trades for integrity purposes. However you just lamblast the poster and others talking...

    Anyone here pass Level I of the CFA Exam?

    Y I have taken the exams myself. Studied a ton but was lucky enough to pass all of them. Some of the material is definitely not as useful as I would like for it to be, but all in its definitely good to have. I viewed it as an insurance policy. However, whomever thinks its a guarantee that...

    Ammo - I think index options expire at the open so your 1260 level, 126 on SPY may be spot on. After open settlement either way fair game.

    We keep pressing up on 1262 yesterday afternoon and this morning, at .25 retracement of 1442 to 1201. Next level 1294 at .382 but doubtful that can come without retracement back down. C news today could really move us up more.

    If I may ask, just curious what is significant about 1238? Just curious since several have mentioned. Thanks!

    When you start posting your entry, stop and exit with your rule of ten crap then maybe some people will think it's actual worth the two cents to listen to. However, since it's always pretty convienient for you to come in on the back and talk up the ROT (what some of us that actually trade like...

    My my - maybe if you had any idea of how many people were in the thread BEFORE you came around and the banter about trading positions we had on a day to day basis you would realize it wasn't me that caused the issue, but you. And come to think of it, I believe B1S2 even quoted you earlier...

    bigmouth aka bigswine aka bighog I literally cannot take it anymore. You pontificate on an almost endless basis whereever you may be, yet not once I have ever seen you call a trade. You drove everyone worth their salt out of the et index futures chat room with the same type of gibberish...

    What if? What would you do?

    Something everyone should be keeping top of mind no doubt. Given the events in oil in the last few days, I suspect we will see some serious talk and possible actions regarding trading in energy futures very very soon perhaps even this week. However, I am not so sure it's going to effect...

    Dcr

    Yes I would sell asap. DCR is going to be closed very soon. I bought it a few weeks ago, and got out for a loss as soon as I realized it was trading at a discount to its value and the ETF would be closed...

    Just trying to understand. For the record, I like your trades and discipline. However if you really think we could get a rollover and noting we are in a significant resistance area, why would you just allow yourself to get stopped out for 9 points when you could get +30 right here right now...

    Yep = 1410 huge level on SPX cash. Pretty hard to believe we are just going to blow through it on the open. But anything is possible.

    Perhaps it is now. And kudos to you for your long. However, it certainly was not "insane" earlier today. Hindsight is 20/20.

    Short 96.25. 4 Point stop. Target 1390 or lower. C still underpressure, futures failing to recognize. And bonds are also up. Edit - out +1 at 95.25 on C's announcement of larger than expected offering becasue of stronger demand. Looking for higher entry.

    Yep Romik- that's the chart I was referring to. I tried to post it last night but kept getting an error message. Thanks for showing it. Good trading today.

    Not sure who has made a mention on bear flags, however I feel very confident in what I see and over the past several weeks I have seen multiple bear flags which have failed to work. The market has a huge upside bias right now which may end after the fed announcement or the end of the month. I...
