Pretty much. I said last week that if I could not get a short I would go long gold and silver.
Makes the decision easier.
Time to look at the miners I follow. Lots of great earnings.

Ya BB52x we may be doing this for a bit. When I look at the charts we could be building a mirco H & S top in the 1260/1270 area.If this holds true we might start dn to visit the 1200 area.Wait and see.
to agnosia...you're totally correct - but i was really wondering why the market was cheering the news. who IS next? hmmmm...sarkozy. i like the sound of that.
....as far as what i see, unless there's another 10 point S&P pump at the end of the day, it looks like we'll FINALLY get the MACD bearish cross in the SPX on the daily today.

French elections next year and Sarkozy cannot run. THAT will be interesting.

Tight stop that's all I have to remind myself and be nimble. hell, I took profit two times already today, not easy but can be done and I will keep trying on the evil side until 1300 is cleared on SPX than I will bull on all the way. o yay bring it on.
My comments are for entertainment/educational purpose only. NOT a trade advice.
Let's see what Sarkozy and Merkel clown show do after kicking out Greece and Italy PM's.
Greece still want a better deal from EU and Italy is looking to get the same.
No way Greece and Italy will sit there and pay these bankers.

it's crazy trying to understand what's going on. people are crazy to think that replacing one person is gonna somehow "fix" europe. instead of fighting it , i drink the kool-aid along with everyone but always know the market can turn on a dime so i trade with stops and carefully.
