Who thinks there will be a bounce tonight? Or rather in a few minutes here when the market is opened? Don't you think it's a bit overdone? Geez.
"July Rate Hike View Loses Favor On Stock Drop, Murakami Issue"
New headlines today!
Perhaps that's enough to drive it up... Plus short covering, plus bargain hunters, etc.
what ya think?

Good to see you again, aren't you the guy who was in everyone's face about how bullish you were on the Nikkei at the very top?
What's the story now bro?
Thanks.
Yeah, I was bullish around 17000. I'm still fundamentally bullish. But I also TRADE. So, I got out a VERY long long time ago and just watched. This saved me a lot of pain. Smarter move would have been to short when the new high couldn't be breached. But in hindsight everything is so easy.
Anyhow, I was a bit brave(perhaps too brave) and got in some last night in the OSE. Ouch! But hopefully, we'll see a bounce here. At least I didn't get in a few thousands points higher!
That's the kind of mentality one should have. Have a market view, yet be flexible. Market changes all the time.
As I'm writing this it's seems to still going lower... DOH! Let's see...
good luck everyone!

p.s. actually it's bouncing now a little. Not much.
but i dare not add more since I already bought a few last night. haha. timing is everything.I'm more concerned about the fact that the US Indexes are lagging (relatively) to the rest of the worlds indexes, yet, we appear to have some serious catalysts on hand to drive the markets lower - much lower...
In contrast, a lot of traders on this forum are forecasting a more serious decline (including myself) in the very near future. This could a very telling contrarian indicator - an upcoming bounce - possibly... I cannot decide if I'll be putting any of my money behind that idea though
. At least not today...This global selling has turned into a bonafide correction. But as you pointed out doesn't seem like we have capitulation. In fact it still seems like even with some rallying at this point the first rally or two will get sold like the SIF's today. Start out buying them and then musical chairs to get out when the realization that it ain't gonna hold.
Personally I'm lovin' the volatility.
