Quote from regough:
Just for the hell of it- I think it ( S&P ) is going to trade in a range between about 750 and 950 for a very, very long time ( 'till everybody except for traders get totally bored and disinterested)
You nailed it on the head. The market does have this habit of moving to extremes however and I wouldn't discount the market getting pushed to sub 700 at some point over the next 12 months.
Short-term traders say they 'trade what they see.' Well, all any chart can really show you is the rear-view mirror & currently that view will lead a number of traders to overdo the selling. IMO.
