the er2 overshoots on the way up {as compared to the es} and overshoots on the way down ---- that is the characteristic of the russell. it had more downside tension built up from thursday/friday/monday run-up to bleed off ---- and the er2 gets some nice point moves when the commercials plop on...

I am looking at things a bit different but I see what you are saying {1996} -------- 1200 to 1201 is a psychological level that has implications if broken.

grabbed some 1218's short in the midnight rally and they did well ---- keep those midnight rallies coming!

well this was tagged and the pressure is now on the bulls to rescue this market --- they will need some good news or some type of catalyst to move this market back up with any authority.

well finally got my 1208 today on the es ---- now 1201 on the SPX is the line in the sand. if 1201 on the cash breaks this week then ride it short and heavy like Seabiscuit. 1170 is looking like the next true support for the SPX is we break 1201 and october turns into a rough month.

you could do one heck of a great big HFT ratio trade with the full s&p contract with that kind of money --- that would be fun.

i look at put/call ratio's, daily volumes, buy/sell program activity of equities/futures. i look at how the nikkei and eu markets trade each night and their volumes. i document and make note of trading activity during and after various economic news releases and how the reactions change over...

well i have been advocating selling or fading the rallies since the 12th of september and i have discussed what i watch during the trade day in several threads. i feel that having a macro economic sense of the current market environment can help a trader to put his/her trades into the context...

actually the buying frenzy thought EOQ window dressing {or PPT as some would say} from the 29th and 30th was mostly foreign buyers dumping their liquidity into our markets {not synagogue frequenter's by any means}. they had their markets at highs {nikkei and eu markets} as we were testing our...

hedgies are up 37 to 30 with 3 minutes left on the clock and they just intercepted the institutions ball at the 1230.00 yard line....HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! :D both teams have numerous injuries and the carnage is laying all over the field ------ the liquidity war has ripped both teams apart and...

the inevitable 1230 break of the es today {earnings warnings, sector weaknesses, continued inflation worries, oil stocks selling} should have been ridden short like Seabiscuit!

yeap ---- it is starting thanks for the link vhehn!

good point as I have always said that homes are like a money sponge when the appreciations go flat --- more rooms and square footage require more heating/cooling, furniture, maintenance, etc.

ZF true --- yes the heating bills will get ugly if the U.S. has a cold winter and that will hurt 2006 numbers.

there is a possible economic shift taking place already that is not all that surprising to me and is just starting to get reported. the news is also just coming out prior to the effective date of the new BK laws {and credit card monthly payment minimums increase} and this is the new reports of...

it is just the End Of Quarter window dressing giving us these very nice intraday price swings --- just hold on until October 1st if you don't like the buying runs off the daily lows. there is a lot of much needed portfolio clean up going on right now in the equities and this brings the...

it is free --- the money in the market is mostly free, when it is in the market there are few good keepers. there are very few guards that are vigilant, and the piles of cash are lying everywhere the eye can see. there is only one person day after day that will keep you away from touching...
