  1. Yeah, the shorts are really being "hung out to dry this morning" dimwit . . . Yet even more evidence that Rubber-Biscuit doesn't even trade, or have a screen in front of him with REAL TIME QUOTES. Once again, he shows us that he has no credibility.

    Dow Jones: -60
    SPX: -2.35

  2. LMFAO....your giving ET play by play now?? SurferDude, on the off chance you really do run some real money you'd better hope none of your clients/investors every stumble onto this website and read this adolescent drivel or they are gonna pull their funds faster than you can flip-flop trading methodologies.

    What is the deal with your constant need to make market calls every few days? I didn't even have to click the header to know you had started this thread, your about the only one of us that feels that need to make a huge call to make up for the plethora of bad one's you've made here through the years.

    When is enough, enough?

    Trust us, your just embarrassing yourself and leaving a juvenile track record here. Forget your win/loss ratio, I have no idea what that is, the thing you should be concerned about is, again if you really do run a fund, or want to someday, all these posts leave a track record showing that at the best you would seem to care more about being right than making money and at worst you have no clue what the hell you are trying to do......i.e. is it to make money or impress us collectively with your market acumen?

    Seriously? I mean you have a tendency to make the huge call (black monday) then if it doesn't work it seems to me you always follow that up with the big call...i.e. getting short/long, blah blah, then if that doesn't work later in the thread we get treated to a, I like "xyz" long/short till finally you get something that works and a few people pat you on the back and you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

    Eventually if you try long enough and post another 5K times of course your eventually gonna tag a few tops and bottoms and even call a "big" turn every now and then, but is it gonna make up for the all the time you've wasted here, posting that your screens are red, that the markets are turning or your indicator just flashed a sell?

    The day your fund or account drops 2% and some guy sees that instead of trying to stop the bleeding you posted 15X times here between 9:30 and 4:00 instead of working to reposition yourself, that money is gone.

  3. Always, I prefer reading than interrupting. Hank's call is right on the money, I have a target to the downside of 9708.40.

  4. Got to love ET these days :)

    It's finally getting back to what it used to be ....

    Excellent job moderators and good call Baron, cleaning up the ship is going to pay you dividends big time.

    YM Intraday Resistance is @ 10112
    YM Intraday Support is @ 10020

    Big Whup!

    I see that I've missed nothing this morning. Black Monday is bust.
    The only reasonable thing to do is to stand aside for now and be prepared to short on tommorow. I might however be tempted to short the break of today's support though. I'll make that determination later.

    Any of you guys in this chop chop???

  9. Still holding with hank (not as many as I should have though) current trailing stop is 10125 ym.

    Hopefully that's enough room till tomorrows numbers come out.

    Funny thing is today is a decent day almost 70 tick range on the ym, only thing is it looks crapy after the last 4 days.... lol.

    Good move.:)

    I have not been concentrating on individual shares lately but I am considering a big operation in the realestate sector.
