Woo! Why do people even work. Get long and add a little leverage and just collect money every day

If your not making money in this rigged to the upside market, you need to find another job, because you suck at trading. This is the most forgiving market we've had in years, if your long

Yup, throw brain into neutral, no thinking or even stress required.

Was the US strike in Iraq most likely and Iran promising a response. Sent oil up too but as we have seen every time before if there is volatility you buy the dip!

One day the buy the dip talk will be a totally listing strategy...

Looks like yesterday's gains will totally disappear in the first few moments of markets opening.

Glad I went short more Russel 2000 yesterday

928 days since the SP500 had a one day decline of >2%... Why argue against facts and statistics!!!!! Dipsters know: THERE IS NO RISK!!!!!!!!!

There is always risk... overnight risk, margin risk, risk you need capital you have locked in holding positions... Or Am I missing something. True... If you have a large enough horizon... but isnt that more investing than trading? And why trade the SP500 if you have much more upside volatility and chances in stocks...
