    Seriously, just listening to the guy when he was "on top" -- I'm not sure how anyone thinking rationally could have taken him seriously -- but they did. As a society, we like to think there are these "special" people that we elevate to god-like status.

    One could make the case that you're not really trading with an edge.

    So what is your edge? Do you not use stops?

    One gets rewarded for taking risk -- not always worrying about it.

    This week should tell us a little something about the market -- was last week's action a successful pullback? 3700 area now appears to be the line in the sand.

    Maybe better utilization and implementation of the analysis. ;) Kinda tried to get a little too cute playing a ST buy set-up within a bigger picture weekly sell framework.

    One of those days where my ST stuff is completely over-ridden by the weekly. Handled some stuff OK given what happened but definitely should have been more focused on the weekly perspective to take advantage of the situation. @Laissez Faire -- seasonality during bear markets vs bull markets!

    I expect NDX and gold to finish up on the afternoon. A little more clear plays to me than S&P today as they were set up to rally after the announcement. We'll see what happens. Note to @Laissez Faire. Just looked at the charts today, hopefully without bias. :-) Still think we could finish...

    Ken Fisher said it best - what can I fathom that others find unfathomable?

    Why do you limit yourself to what is already known? Soros, PTJ in his glory years, Larry Williams, etc don’t think that way.

    Just have to determine what the path of least resistance is. Again, this market, outside of some big cap names, has been strong internally since the 2nd week of the month. I follow a lot of breadth indicators and everything was confirming the strength of the market, including RTY, as we discussed.

    Pull your chair up, grab some pizza and a beer, and prepare for fireworks tomorrow...

    I give you some props -- you got whipsawed a bit and reacted too much to the news earlier this week -- but you have your share of good calls.

    For what it's worth, you might consider trying some mental "cleansing" audio to get a bit of a reset. I had to do that after my September! Part of what I realized in September that I wasn't my best self -- especially in my interactions in here. Best wishes to you. You got this!
