    No body expected 1st term, bad choices are in fashion voting wise so yep expect a bad choice.

    Its easy to come to that conclusion when you look at what all the others had to offer, I agree Trump isn't the ideal President, but he still is the best candidate for the next term.

    "Best" is quite a stretch isn't it? However, I think the view from this side of the Atlantic is Trump will win a second term because there is no recognisable down to earth opposition candidate.

    However, there's an old saying that governments aren't defeated, they defeat themselves. The Democrats can't win, but Trump could lose.

    markets up 60% since election day... why not a 2nd term?

    only empty handed losers would pray for a crash.

    Regarding Trump, Democrats don't have a credible/strong enough candidate to compete with. Bit of war-mongering or stoking in the fire a bit like last week is good for rounding voters behind the leader. Mind you, Kim Jong Un did the same thing when he took over office to strengthen his position internally. Trump deflected from the impeachment procedure. And I bet he'll get a "great deal" with China before the election (a deal he could have had all along ...). I expect him to get elected for a second term.

    and why is nobody talking about the fact that how many days in the past months you see the last 10 minutes in a bullish bar?

    what does that mean? nobody thinks this way? elite traders?

    Market continuing uptrend depends on gov't overspending.
    Where but not when, you can predict retesting of support and resistance within patterns and channels.

    Yeah, Tisk, Tisk, you can focus on the negative or draw lines and make predictions or you can just pay attention to bullish bars and jump on board and ride the momentum to the bank, This is basic trading math 101.
