alot of the indicators I look at were very overbought as of friday, This sideways action today worked off all the overboughtness ( If thats a word) without a large pullback or pullback in gereral, Is that Bullish? :?:

well, guess that's it for day. typical small range day after wide range day. I just hope tomorrow wouldn't be the same boring day, which has chances because FOMC is the day after tomorrow and on Thursday, the ECB president would deliver "believe me, it'll be enough", so the market might be mostly in wait mode until Thursday. Thank you guys, I'll see you tomorrow.

Scaled in SPXU and SPY 125, 130 Sept quarterly puts for a longer date swing trade. Sideways is good for me :)

Yes, but I don't understand the lower prices, though. The Hang Seng rallied some, but their prices are lower.

if you mean you do not understand what markets are doing, thats okay sometimes :mrgreen:

but if you have quotes that are a day old, (i believe stockcharts eod prices for overseas markets are a day later After The Close?

GL, thanks for your input!

Well I'm glad I didn't short Herbalife today for earnings, that's a company that David Einhorn was questioning, the same guy who questioned Green Mountain coffee. They seem to be up a few dollars after market.

I never really play earnings, but it seems more and more foolhardy. Sometimes you see a company miss or beat and say "I KNEW it, I should have longed/shorted them", but then you miss the other mistakes you would have made. This would have been one of those.

Now, Netflix, well, there's another category entirely.
