i would not short in this market,
alreay shifted trend to bullish for october.
[this view changes as price goes on]

tip:
10/05 is when the month turned green. Pretty simple, not rocket science

anybody blaming "goldman" for hustlin basically needs to re-brush up on your candlestick patterns, was obviously bullish from 10/05 already
You are reading it wrong. <b>Dedicate some time to read it right, less shift of sponsbility.</b> This is business, not chuckie cheese, any lost of money = BLAME YOURSELF.

This is a great post, because it is a perfect snapshot of the mindset of the majority of us who watch the markets (myself included, as much as I hate to admit it).

........................................

I hope you all have an awesome weekend, looking forward to another week of trading with you, "if the good Lord is willing and the creek don't rise." :)

:cool:

Nicely stated.

Thank you and have a great weekend yourself!
 
Quote from mastacoli71:

Another week in the books. Sucks to be short a core position is all I can say. Holding 3 contracts outright over the weekend. Glad I sold more puts today, helped ease the pain.

Levels I'll be watching Sunday / Monday:

Upside: 1229.5, 1239.75, 1254

Downside: 1201, 1184.75, 1182.75

Pivot: 1211.25

Good weekend all.

Nothing unfolded over the weekend out of Europe. Made the decision over the weekend not to fight the tape if it opened Sunday night near highs so I covered. I hope it goes down now for those that are holding. Believe me, I want to hold but wanting and following rules are 2 different things.
 
Quote from Macho:

Tonights/tomorrow numbers are topside 113175 and lowside 120150.

Bond selling still the key.

The track record of these numbers is weak. Why post them?

Maybe add the caveat "plus or minus 30 points".
 
Best shorts can hope for, at this point, is a test of 1215, and the possibility of that seems remote at the moment.'

August highs within grasp. After that, an assault on July peak.

What a rip-roaring rally ...

Let's try this again. If we can get some lower highs on 60 min, should be great for the shorts. Fwiw, my automated currency program took its first short on the EurUsd overnight after that multi day trend up from 1.33. That is a good sign. Maybe that should be my leading indicator next time I want to step in front of a freight train...lol.

Let's see what cash market brings today.

And who said these numbers don't mean anything. Nice call on the topside.
 
Quote from diablo11:

Look at the trading range we have been stuck in since the end of August, if you look at eod close today that is right where we were at end of August and the beginning of this 1100-1230 range. Nothing has changed and of course unless this is front running some announcement there is nothing you can do but I believe we have hit the top of the range and the objective was met, unless we gap higher Sunday night I believe it has been exhausted and back down the range we go. As long as this Europe debacle is hanging over the markets head there wont be serious buying. Of course this is my hunch but a simple look at the chart going back until end of Aug would tell you that this is a good spot to take a shot being short, I have been waiting and took some over the weekend to see how next week shakes out. Good luck everyone and thanks for keeping me entertained throughout the day. :)

I like the trading range as well. Looking for that entry on the 60 min today.
