Did someone say Megaphone? Pretty LOUD I might add...

So higher trading costs in Europe mean more money coming into US markets? Looks like the market is going to be digesting this one for a bit.

that's no good. :cry:

I had a perfect long setup today (while Uempel still waiting for his entry :roll: ), had to close out with much smaller gains than I planed. Too bad. On 2nd thought, still better than Uempel who's empty handed anyway. :lol:

Looks like the Wave Count I posted earlier may have completed in an Ending Diagonal.

Is it like Uempel said it's testing 1187 (which is his entry)? still bull or bear for this week?
Will you hold position over night?

Empty handed? Went short with minis yesterday at the close, covered today in the early morning at 1187 :D - a bit too early, my habitual mistake :roll:

that's wait for the dust to clear first.

NORMALLY should be at least another leg down. But there's a trick here: I had exactly the same 90%+ winning rate setup yesterday and today, while yesterday lost 2 of them, if another failure today, that'd be 3 in a row a 90%+ winning rate setup failed, which I think it's very rare if not impossible. Well, let's see.

cover in the morning was the right thing to do. I was too greedy, kind hope a gap up today to short. :cry:

My gain got wiped out for the second time, third time before I give up :x Gap support is still there and strong, so, don't discount it. I am still wearing a bulls' cap.
