Thanks King. Your commentary is very appreciated. :)

But above theory doesn't answer why Wave thinks today was a good day to short market. 800 pound gorilla - fed has spoken - they gave free money to bank desks for 1 more year (from 2013 to 2014). Gold, Copper etc. everything reacted in view of this news.

So, which 800 pound gorilla is going to sell today ? - some big prop desk at a bank, some macro hf ? how does wave know that today will be the day, when S&P will go down? That was what I was asking. I was basically trying to pick up one or two words of 'specific' wisdom, like whats so special about 'today', that wave felt today we will go down. Thats all I was wondering.


S/he doesn't know. S/he's making an educated guess based on trendlines, maybe cyclical stuff, and it may be a very educated guess. But it is nothing more (or less) than that. No magic there. Really.

out 19.50


Ok. That's a bummer...

When I saw your "long-at-19.75" I thought, "Oy, really?"

Then I took a closer look and thought, "Hot Damn! Go JD!" and decided to join you.

And then, just a moment ago, I saw this.

Still in your long, bro. So thanks for the heads-up.

Hang in there...You'll conquer this thing.

Thanks T -- actually I had a 19.25 buy limit and hit but no fill, at 11:23, but only posting actual trades. Buyers clearly interested at this point. It's not moving like it should for longs, but at least they're not being trampled as before.
