Weekly Poll: No Bias For Next Week, But Mother-in-law Tells Me To Sell

[equitydaytrader]

yeah. i loved the up/dwn today. i think there were 50 point swings all day and then a 250 point turnaround! how about that!!

 

[shortie]

i should have guessed that THEY would not let DOW close below 10K.

Quote from noddyboy:

Buying the gap on Friday WAS the right move. Buying gaps are very profitable as overnight markets swing due to brokers, eg. IB giving margin calls and sending market orders each level down. Gaps are often filled but are risky -- if you play every one of them the right way, you will come out ahead.

Free money when you think about it.

Volatility is crazy. 5% swings in the indexes. A smart economist and I forget who said all the presses did was increase volatility and that will be the norm going forward. From April 16th until now the volatility has just skyrocketed. Yes the bottom maybe in but for what 30 minutes, 3 days, or 3 weeks?

The top call re: mid April was prescient now let's see if the bootom call for the first week of July holds. In the meantime the swings are insane in all the fungibles.

Treasury sells 2-year notes at record-low yield

Equities rally!?!

Something is upside down.

This is a volatility run and it's not over.

I am studying the RTH vs Overnight and the trading recently has been interesting to say the least. Let me elaborate.

The Euro causes unrest and the fear of contagion. We sell here in the US it spills over into Asia then Europe. We send a price check down find support and rally. But the selling is afterhours on microvolume. The RTH firms just scoop the money into a barrel. GS is a buy. The FED said "Hands-off" in no uncertain terms. On the next plunge buy the beast. 666

Nice dip below 10,000 again!!!

Bet this caught a bunch of people off guard this afternoon.


Bet it closes above 10,000 again.

DOW below 10K. Media will try to scare the folks tonight. Buy the dip tomorrow if we dive.
