This market is ridiculously high

Quote from volente_00:

Why do u think that ?

Today the gap got closed to the upside, now we need to fill the 2 gaps under us before we go higher.


because in my mind every option "is possible", so I am prepared for anything and surprised by nothing!

And you don't think a veto threat does not influence the policy ????


yes that has an affect....but my main point is the current government since the early 1900's is a "show"....it is not reality.

It is nothing but escalating lies and deception, and with better technology the more pronounced the affect......sad but true.
 
Everything about this recent market tells me it's indicator proof. Disclaimer: what the fuck do I know. But I can just tell you my results: after a good ytd, Aug is in a 12% drawdown. Sure my inexperience, but a lot of randomness. Trades which previously met criteria for rare and high 80%+ probability went to the toilet. So I got 1 decent profit and 4 losses, some in&out minor losses and one real stupid trade which I can't even talk about. So, a learning month for me. Anyway, after a little time in the mountains I have a new perspective. The market is apparently suffering form bipolar bidirectional volatility disorder and needs some time to sort itself out. Accordingly, I put on a time spread to wait it out.

Certainly wish you better results than me. Happy trading.

There is little substance in the US market - belief belongs in Church and used on Sundays.

:cool: or :confused:

The bottom line comes from the crude trader, who is concerned because we are signing contracts in thousands of billions (million million) in a currency that is bankrupt. The day the Chinese wants those contracts issued in Euro, you are dead. It is a poker game where we know one party has bad cards, but allow him to keep on raising because we all owe him so much money that we dare not ask to call.

:D No, the smiling face in el casa blanca can keep on smiling, your problem is that the situation in the Middle East, you have only threats at the moment. The only way your troops in Iraq and Afganistan can get fuel at the moment is through IRAN!
(So good luck trying to sanctions - but the US military should soon advise someone to take to senses and come back to reality, or the landing will be very rough...)
 
The Market is Always Right! Its useless to your bottom line to debate if its at fair value or not or what it will be by year end.

The Market is priced for Opportunity every day.

Your Long Term Opinion should be made with a STOP point in the same breath.

Its impossible to predict how upcomong events will factor into a Market.

These are PAPER ASSETS that we are Trading!

...actually the fuel the U.S. military is using is from government contracts from Saudi and Kuwait refined product......nothing from Iran.
 
Quote from joeyata1:

it matters little what you are i think. yes especially with earnings topping and warnings everywere. it's like the market could care less and wants to hurt the shorts. i can't see us falling much till after labor day. but i still think we have big downside in sept oct period. this bull market is the 3rd or so longest in history and were standing at 853 days the 2 nd longest period ever without a 2% closing dow day which is startling

Its an election year, dont expect any type of downtrend till after the election in November
