The irony is that 90% of the big banks profits come from prop trading. So the 10% other activities is what needs to be controlled! Read between the lines.

Somebody stop this guy. What business does big brother have in prop trading. Sheesh. If Goldman has the $$$ and edge to do well in prop trading their own money, let them be. Why don't we stop Apple or Microsoft from making too much money while we are at it? What happened to free...

1141 was the target from any lows bought. Any shorts taken above 1141 should be held back to 1141. We could trade up to 1150.

If you look at a weekly or monthly chart starting from the highs in 2007, you can see the 1-4 wave sequence. Timing the turns of the VIX Macro cycles is where the buy/sell and hold money is made. The VIX bottoming formation is coinciding with the bottom in the US Dollar.

Elliot wave wise, we are in the 4th wave. Buy the double bottom of the fifth wave down.

It's very important to get into the habit of writing your own personal journal of ideas and look back on them.

This transitory correlation discussion is neat. When it lines up with the charts, it's powerful stuff.

Imagine the buying opportunity at 170 S&P?

Home mortgage defaults and commercial property loan failures will continue. Stocks down money supply gets reduced, benefits dollar. It will probably trade a bit lower, but don't get caught short. USD is setting up for a rocket rise. This country's fate is tied to its real estate assets...

That's in the charts. USD will take off.

So if we don't stall at 1200 and drop, it will keep going and probably trade to the 2007 highs and then kaboom. I hope and pray to whatever gods listening it's not a real kaboom that sets off the drop.

Buy1Sell2 did mention at one point he was looking for 200 on the S&P. He may just get it. But the VIX is telling me not just yet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7HPqi5uVeo&feature=related

Repeat! The US Stock Market is setting up for another massive drop. But I believe we will get a nice run for the bulls before it occurs.

I am looking for the Euro to get back to parity and below with the US dollar. Here is how I am playing this. Strong dollar = weak stocks. The market is setting up for a dip, a nice run, then another massive dip equivalent to the 2008 drop which should start forming during the summer 2010.
