Please tell these morons to make up their mind!

You're the one who needs to make up your mind as you were initially long 2 ticks lower, but then flipped short for a loss. In the meanwhile you've been long and short again twice for a gross loss of - 6,50 points. :)

You now need a 6,50 point trade only to break even.

Flipping inside a congestion zone quickly racks up commissions and losses. We're headed higher, but may chop around here for a bit. HFT loves that.

I'm commenting since I assume that by posting trades publicly, you're also open to receive comments. :)

He was 7 points up.

There are many ways to skin a cat.

Also, you never know if a congestion zone is going to turn into a range (and yes, in hindsight super easy to milk them dry) or if it's just accumulating volume and stops for a large breakout.

Go, Schizo, go!

 
I'm thinking back to 2000 and 2008. This decline and ramp back uo feels different . In 2000 and 2008 the bad news keep coming out for months on end . Were getting the same terrible news week in and week out but the mkt has chosen to completely ignore all bad news and acts like in 3 months we'll be back to normal . That couldn't be any further from the truth.

There were a few family and friends who ran out and brought the first dip - they have been rewarded - market is not meant to work like that. o_O

Finance news reporter said that the google search for "how to buy shares" hit an all time high.
