Perhaps we should start a thread ‘Where’s the weather going?’.

Where is everyone ?

I think this may be a red herring as OTIS is currently in the East Pacific
Would be hard pushed to gain the Gulf
You're absolutely right - it's just a complete lottery at the moment, defying both fundamental and technical analysis. But then the market can stay irrational longer than.............................ukhero said:I think the majority are looking out of a different window searching for a clearer view.
To be honest, I never thought the Dow would climb 79pts today. Doesn't make sense. But that's the market at the moment for you, and I'm confident others think the same.
The DOW is behaving irrationaly and to a lesser degree the FTSE. Where's the DOW going? Flip a coin.

rav700 said:I really cannot believe the way dow is going right now,,,,COMPLETE LOTTERY...you could not have used a better phrase to be honest.I have mentioned time and time again about shorting the dow,but this is far as I go no more trading for me till I see proper direction...
Yesterday was a very bad day for me.....A BREAK OUT TO THE UPSIDE....ohh come on....
As soon as I place the trade on to go short it seem they know that rav is ont he case so LET S GO LONG...hahaha well
If there is anyone who has predicted the dow in the last 3 days correctly..you need to be called The genie so please make sure you change your name.
Thought on today....reverse whatver I tell you to do.....
Happy trading..

Deja vu??
You said to me you traded the Dow back through 10000 in 2000
Is this the start???
Irrationality was the name of the game then
The real problem at the moment is that the Dow has lacked any real direction and has therefore failed to establish any trend for 3 months now !Racer said:Then in 2002-03 there were some violent swings and it seemed like the world was going to end the way they kept looking at the bad news and driving prices down.So at the tops they were seeing everything with rosy specs and at the bottom they couldn't find a good thing anywhere!
Today nothing bad seems to affect the markets, someone on tv this morning saying this is a bull market, when asked about very high costs, oil, slowing consumer spending and inflation he was not worried about that and could see more upside to the markets
I think you are missing the point not everyone here is a bad trader at least I dont think so but it does show that all of have the same thought about the present market conditions and even my technical analysis and my News trading is not helping me in the slightest.Any bad news seems to be totally disregarded by the traders...to me crude is no more a concern for the traders.Also technical levels.....I do not want to go there...mickandpete said:Good to see a counterview Pat
