Did you guys hear the crazy story about UBS trying to buy FB on day one, and not getting any confirmation from Nasdaq?.
So they kept on pressing the buy button - 1 million shares each time. But they only wanted 1 million shares, and suddenly they had confirmation for xx million shares. Apparently UBS losses so far are 350 million. So they must have pressed the buy button about 20 times

I just heard that...who was in charge of pressing that button!! don't you know you only press once!!
okay: beating a dead horse here….volume [kool aid]
look ONLY AT THE CHART ON THE BOTTOM PANEL, called the “top finder”
see what happens the day(s) after there is no buy volume follow-through (red arrows, bottom panel)

Ouch! Here's a link to a story about UBS and Citigroup's losses on FB.

EWZ is very oversold relative to FXI & IWM. It may turn strong at anytime.
It could break out and invalidate this pattern of course...
TG: I realize that we recently had a full moon, so very bullish phase now based strictly on lunar but I was
wondering if you are seeing any possible astrological turns coming up soon?
