Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

I can't decipher what you just wrote aside from being short the ES from 2035...that takes some gonads though...being 50+ handles under water.

Indeed I am 50+ ES handles buried on a short, but it is a hedge, and even if it were not, I can't bring myself to being too concerned (not really using leverage or anything) given what I perceive as an upside limited market w/ plenty of downside risk. Also consider for multi day swing trade that as of recently 50 handles is just not a huge move.;) I do also have an outright short in SPY, but it is not with size; again not concerned.

NoVoodoo might be replying to couple posts in his one statement. But yea, being generally bearish part might not have been directly in response to xandman's comment cuz xandman seems to trade on an even keel moving as the market does with ups and downs like Visaria does. And yea, it does seem the market may give some back Friday after a good run this weak

Our thread has bulls, bears, traders that respond both long and short depending on the situation, position investors, medium term traders, day-traders, overnight traders and we talk about futures, options, indices, commodities, stocks, ETFs, and we have traders and investors from all around the world..... and that seems to be what a market really is...many people coming together with different strategies, different prospectives, buying and selling, sometimes holding long, sometimes exiting toward bonds. Its a valuable resource to me and I really enjoy posting and participating here.

Its what I like most about this thread. The ability to post and talk about a position without concern of being stalked or threatened. To talk and post particularly with people who have a different outlook and hopefully we all learn a bit from each other.

The zero risk subject line was written just so many months before one of the biggest SPX falls in many years and thus was proven quickly that both buying and selling makes a market.

Excellent & eloquent post :)
 
hoping for 2100 on es today. i see no reason as to why not, sentiment is good, reduction in uncertainty re interest rates, stocks reasonably priced, market shrugs off terrorist attacks. Technically, on a strict interpretation, we are still in a bear trend, but i am inclined to weight that much lower due to positive fundamental and tone of markets as discussed.
 
the run up from 2000 setting up to be another amazing display of buying power. Any dips at all get bought very heavily. I would not fight this trend but rather go up with it
 
looking at weekly chart...if es can break 98 and close above it, bears are in serious trouble. i would expect record highs next week.


Of course record highs are coming....they should be here before December 1st comes....like I said weeks ago historical highs are like a magnet. It's going to happen no matter what....
 
But on a side note there is absolutely ZERO leadership....

If this doesn't put you in aweeeeee you have no clue what's coming next....

Over 475 Nasdaq points have been added to the index because of one 2 stocks...

Amazon and Google

Without those 2 stocks the Nasdaq would be deep in the red.....so if just 2% of Nasdaq 100 stocks has participated in this 2015 475 point rally for the Nasdaq there are major problems that lie ahead for this market...anyone who thinks a market can keep going on zero leadership is a fool...

Think about that 2 stocks have led the 475 point rally in the Nasdaq....fools game is all this market is...
