  1. cmon who doesn't like a rigged market to the upside? I do admit that a nice fast crash is a good time but if you blink you'll miss it and if you watch the pot boil you might be broke before it comes.

    The market is rigged, but I love it.
    Just embrace it. When you know we will continue to go up, making money is easier.

  3. True. But it is also prone to sharp corrections that are inevitable, like the one that will occur with the onset of january earnings.

    All of these posters who start a thread with a proclamation and try to time the S&P in terms of a major market reversal are consistently wrong because they are using incorrect timeframe sampling horizons in their analysis. Some of them are also, IMO, over-reliant upon wave count techniques.

    The market has clearly accepted these price levels as correct value, and the more time that we spend at these levels the further this gets reinforced. When a market is in a rally trend, I am looking only at the lows. I want to see if the lows can get taken out in successive sessions, and if indeed we are witnessing a series of higher lows.
