[piphoe]

Its at 82 now, so that was a little early to call a victory.

Dow. - It only goes one way!

Let's look at Nasdaq on daily bars. I have a TL from the low in June, touching the low on Aug 2. That broke. for me, this week. I don't do Dow, SP or the others. The high, on Aug 15, 4838.4. has not been broken , so I am in short mode until it does. The same can be done for the FT

What the news says about interest rates, or what have you- I listen to, but the TL that I use has to tell me what I am to do.

It's simple and not everyone--few, in fact, I'm sure-- will agree with me.

Trendlines are not Gospel. People will draw them how they want and where they want.

We haven't broken YHOD yet! Aren't you a little head of yourself declaring Victory?

We have broken YHOD now, are you going to 'Take another look at it and change your mind'? or just blindly keep holding those shorts and pray?

Theres the 18,600 I thought we'd get before the open.

Dow up 130 in 24 hours.

Asian markets closed in different directions. In Tokyo, the Nikkei reached the minimum of the last two weeks, since the appreciation of the Yen decreased investor interest. It was announced today that exports in Japan fell in July at the fastest pace since the global financial crisis, due to the appreciation of the yen and the weakness of external economies.

@piphoe is your Avatar an image of you handing over your margin call to the broker?

 

[swissy]

I won't be holding overnight. I'll see if I can get anything out of the trade if 5850 zone is going to hold. I'll know soon enough!

Closed 2/3 out @6870. 1/3 left to run, stop +10.

one strength in my position is that i know the top? should we go strait to 2190 (unlikely, imo) i can short again, split the diff and get out even or with profit.

not saying i'll hold short all that way, just saying i got some peace of mind
