    Can you believe, someone published my trading system, SO ANGRY

    Amazon, Dell, Google, Oracle etc etc. It really doesn't matter though as anyone who has an ounce of entrepreneurial spirit and is passionate about their idea would never sell out for peanuts anyway no matter what anyone said. I had to deal with naysayers from day 1 and for several years until...

    Can you believe, someone published my trading system, SO ANGRY

    It is terrible advice and the US stock markets are chock full of stories that lay your argument to waste. I don't need anyone else's story to know that, my own experience is sufficient though by no means unique given the success stories that are replete in my circle of friends and...

    The coming bear trap

    Worries me too but on the other hand it hasn't sold off either and this week is the start of the expected outflows from Japan based on the bonuses. I want to go short the Yen but am not convinced the dip is over just yet.

    The coming bear trap

    Don't know about the bears but I am still holding my EEM puts and long ES at 1515.75 as a hedge. I will close the puts out if we make new highs but I doubt we will. The seasosn favors the short side now and so do market internals.

    The coming bear trap

    Critical resistance here at 1515, it gets broken probably headed back to 1531.

    Fund unwinding

    Agree. I saw signs of this two days ago but looks like they are not being as subtle today.

    Is the Carry-Trade done??

    http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aIxODU2kZZL0&refer=home Also saw on interview with Charlie Rose that Buffet stopped doing the yen carry trade last year due to the higher currency risk, said it was no longer attractive. If the above is true then the Yen is headed much...

    At least it's a gradual selloff

    Suggests that there is more selling to be done. If we had seen some panic today it would have possibly signaled a bottom for the dip, instead this orderly selling is bearish. A panic sell off is where you think about covering when you are short, but with market internals so bad all day and...

    Is the Carry-Trade done??

    I did, its because of the leverage that has been poured on since April (remember that was when the new portfolio margin rules took effect). A 10% correction with the amount of leverage that is in play right now could potentially cause a liquidity crunch that reverberates throughout the...

    Is the Carry-Trade done??

    I was hoping for some confirmation from the yen today but we ddin't even take out yesterdays high. Hopefully we will get some follow through in the selling tomorrow and the yen will start to confirm that this isn't just another dip. Forget the vix as a measure of perceived risk, the yen is where...

    The coming bear trap

    Agree with above 2 posters. Holding EEM puts overnight. Only concern is would have liked to have seen a bit of strength in the yen today, maybe we will get it overnight (yen being the "tell" with regard to perceived risk imo).

    So obviously you are not a loser (I hate that term), but you probably are bored and could stand to expand your range of activities, maybe get out and spend some of that green you are making :)

    If all you are doing is buy and hold why do you feel the need to post exactlly the same crap several times a day. If you have something new to say by all means let us have it but the same inane posts every day day after day acrosss just about every thread, it is getting really old. Do you really...

    Bye, bye YEN Carry Trades...?

    I'm out this trade at 79 average for +69. I am loaded with EEM puts and didn't want any additional risk overnight if todays rout turns in to just another minor dip. If it does Yen goes to new lows quickly. Infact I will be looking for a level to go heavy short the Yen if I see buying come back...

    the Market will not like this--------

    If this is just another dip for equities and not a deeper correction the Yen will shortly give up its gains and make new lows for the year. Traders are bracing for the onslaught of bonus money flooding out of Japan this month. Long yen here is definetly counter trend.
