    I'm wondering why prices of food and services overall haven't even fallen one bit even though commodities are below 2008 financial crisis levels....

  6. yeah, it's always the same formula for the consumer...heads they win, tails you lose...

    Look at Starbucks as an example...Coffee prices plummet, they raise drink prices...if/when coffee prices spike higher, they will just raise prices more frequently...Obviously there is a reason that some of these companies are making record profits...it's also part of the reason that millions are getting killed by ZIRP.

    Translation - you are losing a fair bit of money in essentially flat markets. Your UWTI position is down a lot, you started buying at $2.90, refused to honour the strong downtrend and added around $2.20. It's now $1.07. None of your recent "winners" could possibly make up for this one bad trade.

    And I don't know that 'downturn" you are referring to, US indexes are flat all year.

  9. I play options spreads, but I put on a few back between 2082-2085. Was trying to leg into them on a pullback, but the ranges were too small...

  10. Depends on the "index". Dow under 200dma, Russell2000 under 200dma...Nasdaq outperforming and S&P stuck in the middle.
