Doesn't this look like 2009 where all you (or they) can do is only buy every session?

the YEAR 2009?

maybe if your trading the dailys..
THE battle NOW into the close is last few days, hours and minutes

imo

How did you adapt at that time? Just buy, I take it?

actually i didn't adapt quickly and lost a lot of money..

markets recently look like it.. low volume, small ranges, no sellers, just slow grind higher every day:(

Good point. To be honest I was pretty much a rookie at that point and was not consistently profitable at that time. The market would weaken briefly, and then find solid footing below and continue marching. Just like what it seems like it wants to do again right now... We'll see!

EDIT: '03 - '06 appeared to similar as well, at least on a daily chart.

I think I have a safe entry, so I'm going to put the stop at b/e and see if we can trade up to 12.50's. We are seeing some high TICKs now so hopefully I don't get flushed out.
 
My beef with the market (if you want to call it that) is not that it goes one direction most of the time, but the WAY it moves one direction. It's like they sell at a place for the mere formality of it. There's no genuine selling interest really. Just let it move up, and then let it move down, but enough with this 3 points in 4 hours BS, my god, I'm withering away here as a beautiful day passes me by, while watching this game they play, called a "market" which is misdirection and manipulation, pretending to do one thing but doing another. But I suppose it wouldn't be a market if it were any other way, am I right?
