ES Journal - 2013

Interesting day...a lot of movement but VIX doesn't really confirm a stronger move down. The down trend ended after a touch or two of 1751 broke to the upside then went back down. EOM settling as well.

I'm going long if we hit 48.5

Think I'm done for the morning. Market smoked too much crack for my liking. Time to run errands

don't you just hate these buyers?

Especially when it is the fed reserves with their unlimited pile of liquidity. I don't think it is an even playing field given that the fed reserves can buy futures. No reason for it other then manipulation. It truly is no longer a free mkt.
 
Quote from Visaria:

It would be good and healthy to have a correction in the stock market. Say 5% or so, would remove some froth. I think we will correct starting now. Not a bear market by any means, you can't have a bear market when the fed is printing so much money every month, ceteris paribus. But a correction is quite normal. Would be perfect to buy in for the longer term.

We just had a 5% correction a few weeks ago. I think we don't go much lower from here. Probably go over 1800 over the next few weeks. Then maybe a 5% correction in late Nov or Dec.
