Thanks LC. Good luck and Good Trading to all. Don't let this be your make it or break it day. Stay solvent boys.
As I said elsewhere: I would prefer no intervention - allow the markets to sell and sell until selling is exhausted and then recover. But, no, this will not happen . Expect intervention, in currency markets and PPT ...and the later by Treasury and others. Place STOPS, take profits, and DON"T GO HOME SHORT THIS WEEKEND!!
Globex limit down is 5% but we are over 5% ??? What is the 10% intraday limit ? Is it calculated from 915?
There is no such thing as PPT. This is the last time we mention PPT here in this journal. Let's move on to trading the ES. Thanks
I know we are nowhere near a depression, but who knows what the future holds? Let's remind ourselves how it all started, at which point & after which event markets started to take off? It was after the Democrats announced or rather called for companies to start investing into internet based businesses, after false expectations it all finished in a total fiasco only to be saved by total slashing of the interest rates. Now we find ourselves in another sticky situation where the housing bubble burst causing near collapse of the whole banking industry, which'd have almost definitely taken us into depression of some sort. So we are almost back to where we started before the .com fiasco. I agree with opinions of some other posters that there will be a total overhaul of the entire system. One thing almost certain - they are now working on new plans, which might be introduced after they realise that slashing rates again will not work this time round. Once this liquidation subsides I see metals & and agriculture commodities going through the roof.
