roll on santa rally..
It happens to all of us ( at one time or another in trading career ) cheers... !mark twain uk said:A bad trading day for me, I closed my shorts too early and went long expecting the traditional pull back, got stopped out, went long again and will probably be stopped out before the close, it looks very much like a trending day. After all the bear talk over the last few weeks I lost the bottle today and unless there is a rally into the close I will end up in the red. Doh!

signs of a downtrend...
karmit said:problem is - trailing stops of small players doesn't matter in front of dumping by the really big ones :|
and today it does look like the big boys are upto mischief (again)...
Having said that, I do hope it doesn't fall that much today!... I'm looking to short again starting 12200 ...
btw... I do wish to see 12360 again.

andycan said:es still a little shy of target
a pop and drop is the play im looking for
Do you see tomorrow as a day of rest before more downside or do you expect tomorrow to carry on as today?
let me clarifyAtilla said:25 & 50 day moving averages have provided good support for me and today the 25 day MA was broken significantly.
If the 12100 support level doesn't hold then I think the DOW will drop all the way down to the 12000 with little resistance. MACD, RSI & Stochastics all support this view.
I think we have some way to go. However, will pause and wait for the 12090 to be broken first before opening new short positions.
I would also guess there will be a dead cat bounce prior to the festive season but not what people have been writing about or expecting as I don't see the economic conditions supporting the move. A lot of hype and cash with no substance. M&A will not lift the doom and gloom in the market. The US retail figures support this view. Less people shopping but those who are have spent more. That doesn't bode well in my book.
The $ollars demise doesn't help the situ. If foreign banks don't support the $ we can give it a long kiss all the way to £1=$2 by March time.

I expect today to be down up down I am not going long just waiting for a price to go short
dc2000 said:just to put some numbers to that, my preferred entry is 12219 Dec about 12192 cash and would ideally like to see an early drop to 094/093 in the cash
mark twain uk said:You're too good for me, so I got stopped out and am now long again from 12090 and 1376 cash, with the tightest of stop losses. Funny psychology really, after being a bear for months and only selling the rallies, I now seem to develop a passion for buying the dips.
