  1. Are you here to make money or point out the crookedness of the markets. The stock market has been and always will be full of lies and corruption.

    Volume just pathetic as markets continue to break new highs

    SPY volume today didn't even break 60,000,000, not even close to its average 3 month volume.....and of course they mentioned the shorts and how they weren't bothering to cover as new highs set in... I will guarantee you that the next huge one day jump in the markets will be based on shorts covering their positions, that seems to be the excuse they give every time the markets are at or near new highs...it has nothing to do with shorts covering their positions...right now no one has a clue why the markets are at record highs all while GDP forecasts have been cut, earnings forecast have dropped and all the while we have had 5 straight months of industrial production falling...on top of that but it also seems the word recession is being thrown around now...so with economic numbers looking worse and worse it only means new record highs for the markets day after day after day....Im wondering, if GDP figures keep coming down and markets keep rising, what will happen when they start raising GDP figures, is the dow going to jump through 20,000....the market is immune to any negative economic forecasts going forward...

    Economic data shows slow US economy => market goes up because Fed will delay raising rates.
    Companies warn about next Q revenue => market goes up because Fed will delay raising rates.
    Consumer sentiment is lower than expected => market goes up because Fed will delay raising rates.
    Chinese growth slows because of global slowdown => market goes up because Fed will delay raising rates.
    Companies report better than expected results => market goes up because of good news
    Unemployment rate goes down =>market goes up because of good news.
    Absolutely there is no news !! = > market goes up because of no news.

    He's obviously losing money, everything he posts about is an aggressive short. I thought he was smarter then complete idiots like S2007S. Perhaps he'll outline his position now and prove he's not entirely full of shit like S2007S that is also supposedly long and short all the time and posts about winning trades every day no matter what direction markets go.

    We need genuine people here, not bs artists. If you are calling a top, and calling out short trades to try to profit from that top, then own that don't try to suggest you can be profitable and bet on a huge market reversal.
