Bonds readying to advance?

The trade is actually running away from me, wanted to add contracts at 109-14 but now have to wait for a pullback, may get it tomorrow if the consumer number is good... The trend is a little less muddled now, but get ready for volatility due to lack of vol...

Yield curve was all the talk today, the resistence seemed to be non-existent, slicing through to -0.02...

Already looking forward to my next trade, reminded by what Bill Gross said, play the short end of the curve, coz that's where most of the money will be made...

Are we having fun yet?

I am glad we have a little break from 5pm to 7pm, it allows scabs to form.
I'm waiting for my turn to have fun, when I'll sell in a week or two (as mentioned in my 12-25-05 5:41 PM post).

That's it for bonds. I was very bullish when this whole thing started in early November but I have been disappointed by a much weaker rally than expected and the fact that bonds were only able to make substantial gains recently when markets where closing shop for the holidays.

I'm now bearish.

So you are a "fair weather Bear"?

Although I think Friday was a good time to liquidate a long position, a good time to open a short position would probably be later in a couple of weeks, sometime during the first week of January ‘06: Jan 3rd (FOMC minutes) or Jan 6th (employment report).
The post you quoted was dated Dec. 24 before my next post dated Dec. 25 where I specifically said that the point to enter a short position was different than the point to liquidate a long position and that THE RIGHT TIME TO ENTER A SHORT POSITION WOULD BE THE FIRST WEEK OF JANUARY.

Before being a smart a$$ with me, don't you think you should have waited to see if my call fails in January? Also, by the way, I remember very well when you turned negative on bonds just before the rally started in early November. Not only did you pick the wrong guy Surdo-Cecco, but you also picked the wrong thread. Gharghur and landboy are two people who prefer to keep their exchange of ideas between gentlemen traders and are probably too polite (like I was until now) to tell you that we doubt very much you're trading futures.

Also, I DON'T APPRECIATE BEING SPAMMED! Don't PM me again.
