    Up or down for tomorrow?

    For day/swing traders & other interested parties. Market technicals are very overbought. However, we just hit some new multiyear highs on the Dow and S&P. Can these prices hold tomorrow?

    Oil hits $64/barrel, market doesn't care

    I disagree. OPEC recently slowed excess production because no one was buying it. Chinese demand growth has definitely slowed. http://english.people.com.cn/200601/06/eng20060106_233386.html

    What is your "TRADING HOLY GRAIL"?

    Here's a hint without going into specifics... My trading is very time specific, i.e. Strategies that work well at one time of day won't work well at other times. Every day trade I make has different profit targets and stops depending on what time it is.

    63 too high for qm right now?

    Oil is a very trending market. If you try to pick tops and bottoms, you will probably get burned. A simple MACD crossover on the daily chart should be a good enough signal to short crude.

    Chaiken Oscillator

    this indicator is NOT a primary one.... It's too choppy and erratic to use for your main buying & selling signals It should always be used to confirm your other indicators.

    closing strategies

    Buy if the TICK exceeds 1000 during the last hour. No, I haven't backtested it. just an opinion from time watching the markets.

    The next 2 days will tell the tale...

    There really should be nothing to hold prices down. It's obvious the markets are short term oversold. We got 2 good pieces of news today. And the seasonality factors are strong. so.....If the S&P can't rally 6-7 points from here by Thursday, then the bears have definitely seized control of...

    Is that it for the stock mkt rally?

    Market's been held down by record trade deficits and record natural gas prices. But i think the good vibes about Fed policy and chairman Bernanke will eventually power through this resistance and the end of year party on Wall Street could start soon. Perhaps even by tomorrow afternoon...

    Russell 2000 52 week high

    The Russell 2000 hit a new 52 week high today! And if I'm not mistaken, it also hit an ALL TIME HIGH today as well. Yet the Russell traded DOWN for the day...... Doesn't that seem mighty suspicious?? Are there bears peeking out from behind the elm trees? Are they just out of sight...
