    alert: This is a VERY weak market

    Shoot....we can't even break 1490 where there is supposedly HUGE support. This Apple and Boeing "mania" is killing the short idea. Someone, PLEASE, tell me again, why the commercial airline market is SO STRONG ? I don't "get it" ! It must be all of the executive trips to Japan and China, right...

    Shorting Radioshack (RSH)

    Wrong. Based on short covering by the hedgies. Short covering prior to last few days has been nothing but phenomenal. You can "see" it on the On Balance Volume of the ETF's....prices going higher, but volume NOT going higher percentage-wise.

    Intraday reversals on E-Mini S&P 500

    This has been observed before and documented by Alan Farley. I've also surfaced / mentioned this phenomena on this forum, but it was "pooh-poohed" by none other than Jack Hershey. Farley called these "short circuits" whereby the volume "blow-off" takes out all of the "weak hands".

    This week's congressional hearings...

    After listening to Barney Frank this week, in front of the ever-so-stately-and-academic Ben Bernanke, I have to admit, I was at once wondering that possibly was this a "Simpsons in Congress" episode ? Anyone who watched this week's tape has got to be vitally concerned about the future of this...

    confused about where the futures stand tonight....

    If you put the NQ 3:45 pm move in terms of velocity, it's significant....very significant. And hey, what about that EBAY tank today on a good report. Hallo: "All of the good news is already in the price".

    TWS recent builds issues

    Are you sure this is NOT server-related ? (i.e. those machines that are sending TWS the data). There were several nasty server-related issues a while ago, but they were supposedly fixed. However, they were related to normal market data, not the Depth of Market.

    Google- Waterfall selloff in the afterhours session!!!

    Hello. This is normal market behavior. These violent zig-zag moves always occur after a news event. Here's the analogy from physics: take a long piece of string or wire, and fasten it so it is taut. Now snap the string or wire and watch it rapidly OSCILLATE between two extremes. Over time, it...

    Listen-up guys....MBAGearHead is on tear...and has made one of the most dramatic turnarounds ever. 3 months ago, I couldn't stand to even follow his posts, he was losing so much, day after day. Now he won't have to put on that monkey suit and work for "the man". Congrats once more.

    Odds Czar: Simple Biases in the Futures Markets 2007

    At least the calendar bias is working in the "correct" direction for that overbot Nasdaq. I think the 2000 level is a reasonable downside target for now. Today's end-of-day action in NQ could be analogous to the Titanic first hitting that iceberg.
