I think what you meant to say is that your own downside bias is being totally ignored by the markets. Your initial hope for 1030 seems unlikely if we rally to 1240.

Is it possible that "Ordinary_Trader" and "Grand_Stuper_Cycle" are off their rocker trading stories in an insane asylum ? More certainly its possible, probably far more likely then the March 2009 lows being broken in our lifetimes.

Sorry, nothing to see here, except .... From EliteTraders most exciting new thread, "Market Sub Outlook" ... Real time call : Buy TSX Index at 11660. Get the picture ?

Part of being Canadian is understanding that the US is kind of fucked up right now due to extreme arrogance. If you thinking fighting wars is a good thing well congratulations you are paying for the last one out of your wallet.

Not the first time I called the morning trade this week. I posted this on Sunday night when somebody noted the futures were crashing Sunday night ( not in jest either ) : Now, if anyone followed this general idea, they'd have done very well this week. TSX Index is way up so far this week.

Buddy, you are a complete and utter waste of time. You post stuff then pretend you didn't. You hold no accountability for your calls. It's a huge SCAM. I have no respect for people for SCAM people then try to act self righteous to cover their tracks. Shouldn't you be out there selling used cars ?

Here's what your hero from yesterday posted today :

Joker, you are the guy who fabricated a complete Journal and I caught you red handed. Your credibility is ZERO on this forum. I have addressed this fiction that I am a "Permabull" very specifically and very recently. If a little cretin like you cannot understand basic English and perspective...

VIX/VXX apparently are useless to me. So I learned something today.

I was trying to relate VIX behaviour to options pricing behaviour and I don't think its worth pursueing. With respect to options, what I do is track fairly recent prices at certain levels to ensure I'm not overpaying premium or spread due to temporary blips in price ( for whatever reason...

Sorry, I realized afterwards you were acknowledging the joke aspect. The lines get blurred when a joke thread starts getting real content. Yes, my premise of a "huge buy order" was fabricated shit.

Buddy, try canning your dumb ass routine and answer the question in a knowledgeable fashion. Or just shut up. Honestly, what is your problem ?

A spike up could mean we have higher volatility in some situations. For example, what kind of volatility levels existed on Nasdaq stocks in the late 1990s ? I'm not that familiar with VIX/VXX so this is why I ask.

I'm very familiar with options; basically an increased VIX would indicate option sellers want more premium to make up for the increased risk of rapid one way movements in the market. The source of confusion for me is Shortie continually relates higher VIX levels with rapidly falling markets...

I thought volatility reflects pace of change, not direction. If markets spiked up suddenly, wouldn't VXX go up ? Or am I misunderstanding something here ?

My post was based on a little bit more then "shit". TSX was outperforming US markets by a lot, and SPY was hugging support everytime it dropped yesterday. Tell me something, how would people have done following my advice ? A lot better then the other thread, which was my point really...

WRONG. Get your facts straight. I posted one trade to go long on RIM and it made 25% as forecast in 6 weeks. Were you telling me not to make that 25% ? My calls on overall market moves have been excellent. You want to get into this topic you will lose. The posts are in history, you were...

Buddy, could you be any more wrong ??? Please see "Market Sub Outlook" thread, the most exciting new thread on EliteTrader, for the correct picture. Remember, descending wedges cannot be denied !!!

Please consult my "Market Sub Outlook" thread its absolutely destroying your "Market Outlook" thread this week.
