My bidu call is up 20% even though the stock dropped nearly 2%, don't know why vol on bidu suddenly dropped yesterday for so much.

BTFDers win again. reverse of traditional TA signals seems to be the winning trade in this market for a while. we break support at 1407 and instead of accelerating down instead we rally.

gold is decidedly *not* fading the QE theme. stocks to follow?

Why can't the market A-holes just let the SPX drop 20 points each day for a week.... then it could make some sense to buy.
It goes down 2 points and people run in "buy the dip!!!!!!!"

Trading around hedged position.
Looks like support at the top of last week's rectangle kicked in.
If it fails later on, the bottom of the rectangle (around 139.8) seems like a likely next support.
After that 139, seems like a line in the sand. :shock:

Cobra - if we get another leg down, is that leg normally lower than the prior low? thanks.

The volume surge was due to an announcement that Spain was meeting with ECB to discuss specifics of bond buying, but that nothing should be finalized until Sept. 15. Sort of a good news bad news thing.

Edit: Technically not an announcement, but rather, literally, "say 3 people familiar with the matter".
