1. Green day because of FMO tomorrow and or wedneday ?
Are we still on the long term : "revist the august lows"
today's action only proves this is (was) just a rebound.
The 7 days rule although allows 1 day red, but definitely not big scary intraday sell off, so it's not a strong rebound.
I agree we need to still call the move up from 1102 a rebound because we've yet to reach a 50% retrace from 1371.
But you gotta believe Wall Street wants to make this things more than just a rebound to get their bonuses...

It is the sound of the short-covering coming to a DEAD HALT
they just stop buying back, they are finished for the moment, perhaps

This is poetic! I love it.

why the hell do we gap down only to fill said gap in 1 or 2 days? this market is confused. i think we are rallying on the latest greece is "fixed" news (again)
crude is making its way up to 86.50 zone and that will be a good swing short. of course this could also be a false breakdown and the bernak will save the day driving prices over 90. should be interesting ...

need some time to digest the 1200+ area. as long as 1194-95 holds, it favors bulls.

Hey cobra - have followed you for more than a couple years now - unfortunately barely have time to really dig into the details on my own, but i read the nightlies, and its fun to track the board during the day and i play a long a bit. Followed today in around 10:30 and exited with some nice lunch money a few min ago. Cheers for your work, its really fun to watch your analysis.
Cheers!
Will

yep, i am a fool for missing it because i stopped being a believer in the bull-tards
thought they would wait till the bernak at least for gap fill.
