Cobra's Market View

Flat open, so any gap will be filled.

The Global ES looks good, strong push up yesterday, then an overnight consolidation then breakout. The breakout is not valid though but my point is the chart is not ugly.

Good morning Cobra and all,

hmmmm...very strange action again, 20 hours of sideways movement on the S&P500 while european stocks are going higher
Truly, this is one of the strangest markets I've ever seen so hard to predict...Thought this rally is one for the history books

For a while sideway action is the best action, watching only

Good morning all

Dr Copper is not cooperating in the rally... a clue?

good luck all shorts.

In my own opinion, I am looking for a lower low in GLD at 1660. I think the dollar will be strong today. The market is topping here, which causes swift changes in price, especially at expiration. GLTA jimme

It may be a stupid move but I may sell my UNG at the open. UNG bears, let's see you guys short it!

the open.

it's a clear breakout now.

or the Crude is topish, either the limit is the sky...

sold UNG @ 5.51 for a 1.9% gain
That's 6 for 6!

Senor Petsamo - You cannot take profits because the weather is too warm and the supplies are too plentiful with hydro fracturing
Senor Al - TVIX could not hold the 5 EMA which means I won't be seriously looking at her until she starts breaking out again.

I believe it is a tight range day with a pop on Tuesday.

Sit tight. Waiting for market get to the top 137 which is p bar pointed at on 2/2/12. Then let's see market maker wants to do next

hopefully a small double top here.

1 min chart is clear what I mean double top. well, again, hopefully.

/DX has broken up out of a channel in a 3 push stucture

morning
copper hasnt confirmed the rally at all.
Feb 16 close 3.81
200 day average 3.81
50 week average 3.90
so maintain my call from a few weeks ago the market cant rise higher without copper breakout
