I am waiting to see if we get a doji tomorrow which would set up a nice place to buy some puts for a low risk short once and if that LOD is taken out. Market is trading in a pivotal zone..... Great time to be on the sidelines and pounce when the oppurtunity presents itself.

Looks like a picture perfect doji...... get ready to pounce tomorrow if the trigger occurs... looks like a 100+ point decline starts tomorrow :) If market strengthens cover immediately for a small loss. Small losses and grand slams are how I trade. I missed the buy while taking time off so I am in hope mode that this market turns around so I can buy at new lows. I think we have another year or 2 of this bull market left.

out 1495.25

no movement today

no more trading until the Announcement

I'm still here :) Haven't noticed any of the usual posters 'not here' (except for mbusch but we know he's traveling)

Your previous post about buying on the dip and claim its so easy...but you've never once said where you've bought while making calls..and seems like most of your calls are wrong initially.

So I'm confused, you were long before Fed announcement now?

Everyone if you think I'm being too tough, then just let me know PM and I ll stop. I think my questions to islands have all been fair and not in a rude way and he has not once addressed my posts. (maybe he put me on ignore - as I'm about ready to put him on as my 3rd)

Ps. short 1 contract again sorry i couldn't post it live

Little chance of a retest of the August lows in the next few weeks/months??
I bought DXD, SMN (ETF - Shorts) at much higher prices as my first buys that I still have. I figured I would just hang on to it until we headed strong south again for some kind of retest. I am beginning to think that might be A LOT longer down the road?

Islands is an old friend, but I must ask him what happened to his 13700 ym long that he once claimed right before we shed 1000 points ?
 
And the only other question is to Apex


Why did you wait until ES was at 1503 and then say you moved your stop to 1484.75 hours after the fact and after the trade was deep in the money ? Never the less it was a great trade and had I moved my stop 1 tick less, I would have rode it up too.

the responsible thing for the fed to do is leave rates alone & not cut but i`m sure we`ll see the .25 with an easing bias.i don`t see a .50 but if we do,it`ll provide the ultimate sell once the rally fades & still looking for a catastrophic enema & a massive transfer of wealth....just a matter of when.
[/B]

still looking for the big move down........Doji/spinning top represents a bit of indecision here after the expected euphoria on the .50 cut.

this was a good day for my fios interenet connection to go down....gap & grind was what i expected today & did`nt plan on sitting behind the screens anyway.

Islands,why do you always assume that everyone is short & stays short on big up days while you`re the only one long????
where do you hide during red days?
 
apex i could have sworn the other day you said 1350 on the es was coming and now you're saying another 1 or 2 years bull left?i assure you this bull is coming to an end.what few want to admit is this is not an interest rate problem we have so the fed lowering rates means jack in the long run.
