Market will go up for a couple of days for the clarity in politics which messed everything up during last 2 months and end of Bush. Volatility will come down but don't see any major rally after that without stimulus plan or major mutual funds buying / M&A activities. May go slightly lower but...

That's sad outcome. Wonder if he is still a long term investor. When will he cut his loss or betting he can profit from the average down? That's why traders don't average down. The "investor" can perhaps buy them like lottery tickets or "long term investments" now.

so, that's the "creative way"? sounds like the bear sterns deal to me? anyways, congratulate on the ones that make money. and i'm happy that killing them save the market. possibly lower the dollar and save the energy and material sectors too.

i don't trade OIH. But I have stocks in Coal companies which is traded very closely with oil, more than natural gas, surprisingly. yes, very nice response to the bearish inventory news. cnbc people please stop talking about the fundamentals of oil markets.

We saw huge shift from energy, material to financial. That reversed the commodity up trend / financial downtrend. Now this reverse looks ahead of itself. Long term high dollar keeps oil low. The low oil price drives up the market. But look at today, financial goes up and up and runs out of...

Exactly. Even if you have tons of blood like Buffet, buy and hold doesn't work. It really sucks if you apply it to higher volatile stocks. Cut loss at 7-8% max and keep the winners and trim them on big gain.

I traded TRA many times. Almost everytime I got in before correction. Hold-on to it, watch everyday and sold around even. Whether this is another tech-bubble like sector or not, this market is not a bull market, definitely not for ag or many commodity at this moment. So, don't buy at top...

Market may not be rational right now. It wasn't rational when they worried about economy and claim global demand in oil when there is a lot of supply sitting there. With rising dollar and sectors rotation, market will ignore the bad job market and thinks real estates and finance has bottomed...

chart is telling you otherwise. why catch a falling knife? oil is $115-

Not sure if it's the triple top after the double-bottom. But 2nd high is higher than 1st and 3rd is even higher. Breakout? Range trade at least? Oh, I mean the US / euro.

Everybody was talking about supply / demand for oil like last month. Politicians, traders, douche bags never talked about speculation, technical, and not much about the US dollar. Oil inventories are down. How about the Nigerian, Iran, Russian instability? Now all of a sudden the global...

I want to hear what you guys think about the once-high-fliers, steel makers, iron ore / other metal miners, coal companies. Both steel and coal companies have huge earning quarter. Yet, the down trend is quite clear. They are quite tough to trade. Coal, lumped with oil as energy has a high...

hope you had locked in your profit earlier. otherwise, you must be hoping for the late market sell off to break even today. Then I'll be really sweating for you. I'm want to know your price target and stop loss when you want to short the market.

Maybe I'm wrong. But I saw increasenow good call if he shorted the market into today and dow went down 90 pts this morning. That's if he took his profit. I see the opposite of riskfreetrading happening at least for now. Take profit from covering short and go / stay long.

& Can't agree more!! I thought traders are supposed to trade charts. I don't think we can make any money by arguing about what's gonna happen tomorrow or keep checking the after hours data. If increasenow thinks it's gonna have a gap up and fade the rally, why does he bother the fake...

Yeah, fade the rally. I, with many of us here, think that the market is over-reacting on the no news - rate remains same - news. Only saw the fall back after the first few minutes since the Fed announcement. I scratched my head on the big run across the board. The only reason out there is...

This commodity sold-off helps Fed fight inflation. Why does the Fed need to raise rate then? That's excellent for Fed to buy some time for the market. No hike. If we all favor let market play / fool itself, tomorrow will be no change in rate. Market bounces back across the board. Since the rate...

I should watch Cramer more closely and take on opposite direction, such as bear stearns.

I too was trying to trust the rally and check my shopping list last night. Trying to find one stock rallied with high volume. And, surprisingly to me, not to you guys, all prices have high jump and volumes remain same. Now, even the commodity falls, people don't trust the stock, bond, gold...

How short do you mean? Intra-day at most? Or 2-5 days?
