Quote from Spectre2007:

My networks seems to be hacked, there is a lot of competitive effort to make money in this field.

I have multiple platforms and infrastructure, atleast 4 laptops with seperate broadband cards. And more then 4 desktops also.

I'm going to lay low for awhile, gona get the tech guy in, if I find whos doing it you will be served court papers.

Don't blame a hacker for that 1466 short

some things to look for if your bullish today.

1) is price above 68
2) is price above MA's
3) is direction of MA's up
4) is price above the open

if any of these things aren't true, then 54 is next.

if these things are true then 84 is next.

.so far things look very good.

edit: CNBC was pointing at Fortunes cover, it was all black, and pointing at the markets turmoil.

Quote from mbusch:

I went long from 1469.50 at 12:02 ET.

Target is 1480. However, this target will be invalidated if ES paints below 1473 before it gets there. (If that happens, I'll probably exit the trade and wait for another setup.)
Staying in this trade is requiring the patience of a saint, but I'm still hopeful of another run of buy-stops above HOD will propel us to my target of 1480. My plan is still to stay long unless we get back below 1473 support, which so far we haven't done.

P.S. 1473 is a "mental stop." My hard stop is lower.

EDIT: I just realized that this is Friday before a 3-day weekend. Duh! No winder it's so damned quiet. Prolly most of the traders went home at lunchtime and won't be back until Tuesday. (I figure I'm probably the last person here to have figured that out.)
 
3 day weekend is next weekend not this one

Quote from Spooz Top:

if dow pushes up to 350/400 level.....i`ll be looking for a powerfull reaction.

the dow loves to paint the pic on their charts so i would`nt be surprised to see it set up.

this setup mirrors the 1510 ultimate sell on ES....that gave a quick 14 handle move & was the beginings of the 10% downside move.this setup usully provides a quick/sharp reaction.

i`ll be in mexico next week to recharge my batteries,which are fried.....so good trading next week to all.

spooz 84 target is coinciding with dow 13,400 rather nicely

this seems to be the target here....

the 'sense of relief' rally hasn't hit the market yet.... prolly signify touch of 1500.

it very well could be 1500/08 target but i will not be passing this inflection point up..especially if/when we set up..a 2 day swing to the bottom of wedge may be in the cards....coast to coast move like we just saw is a possibility.but a higher hi would`nt surprise me either.

that gap to 83.75 was a bit tricky as it was done out of RTH....running stops above that daily TL had sellers/shorts rethinking that sell zone.....i don`t usually fall for it but they tweaked me there in a day trade mode......but not positionally.:)

i beleive this walk up is creating a bit of complacency....that along with the so called fed sentiment.....i believe there will be downward reactions to the fed dates i`d posted.....minutes,biege & fomc.
