Portugal, Ireland, Spain..... China drops big, ES down 1% still................ fuck it, the DAX needs to go positive. oh, and fuck the industrial production # too.
talking heads on bloomberg giving the cnbc talking heads a run for their money...
chick talking about the fiscally challenged European countries like Spain and Greece and called them physically challenged instead. good for a laugh, especially with the mentally challenged pushing the DAX to new daily high of 6772.50. fuck me
i'm actually up about 5000 euros thru this recent short by trading around the position (you can believe or not, but my failures are very public here, so the gains should be equally believable). in fact, i'm flat right now. every time i take $ off i call myself a pussy. bottom line- i'm a pussy when im short the DAX after s many beatings and narrow escapes (read margined to the hilt and got lucky to get out at breakeven!).
still, this is just silly. seems short looks like it's going to be the trade that makes my year, but no follow thru and the bulls are relentless regardless of data.
today would be a good day to fall, as to fall on good #'s would maybe give the bears some conviction/balls. as for me, flat and wondering if i should just go to bed after a good night of trading. got a short order sitting just below 6785, may just leave it and let them fall where they may.....
