Oh my god, so 1158 is the end of wave B. now we go past 1292 and that's an 80% probability trade. Am I right?

jarbo / AL / Cobra / anyone does anybody have a good source for the kind of info such as the average return of the SPX on any given week? I tried Googling it but didn't get too far.

the fact remains that the structure of the financial industry is to buy, buy, buy. as a result, surprises will almost always come to the upside. i'm looking for a time to close out my longs for a profit, and sit in cash and wait for my next entry.
this isn't bragging at all, but this is a few of my positions since i stopped being so bearish the market.
i think you could probably run your own analysis using the historical prices provided on a lot of sites. easiest might be to go to yahoo finance and look up ^GSPC, export the historical prices and run your own basic arithmetic. that's all i got...

You know you're saying this at the holy ground of technical analysis right?
Imo, technical analysis is powerful when volatility and significant market moving events are absent (like during bull run when the world is a "peaceful" place). In times like this, I like to use my common sense about what's happening around the world more, and supplement it with doses of technical analysis.
And always read ZH with a huge bear-filtering glasses.

Morning Cobra, wow what a strong day, does this nullify what you said last night? This is the strong push up that you mentioned here yesterday? Feels like October all over again though I'm highly skeptical myself.

so far so good, maintain the target. Trade this market is to trade the direction you find hardest to believe, that's it. I'm not kidding.
