    LOL, i think your grossly overestimating my ability.

    Anyone got any thoughts on the fed? Im kind of just sitting on my hands, but i really think the market is in a position like it was on the last fed decision where you would just have to be out of your mind to get wildly bullish at this level no matter what the fed does, but im not 100% sure this time so im waiting on it.

    dammit should have stuck with my initial assumption, and shorted this hopefully Yellen creates a bounce.

    Its a good day to be a bear.
    That being said, I think we're gonna see a reversal.

    She sounds pretty dovish right now

    Oil has decent relative strength compared to everything else right now.

    Well, good morning guys, yesterday finished up about 600 but i lost almost the same amount on an FCX swing i had on with tiny size, this is the reason i never make money on swings, i should have been happy taking FCX at 14.50 two days ago, i had calls and stock, would have been a decent winner, but the problem is i went so small on it that i really wanted it to be a homerun. I could have taken it all off on Tuesday for like an 800 dollar gain which is pretty good on tiny size, but i wanted it to be huge.

    Seems like every time i try to swing trade shit i hold on a day too long, ill be stopping out below 14 on FCX, on the calls and the stock, I have October 14's from .53, and stock from 13.74, so it wont be a loss, but its kind of aggravating.

    Other than that im scanning and looking for anything i can find this morning, but apparently today and tomorrow are both Jewish holidays, i never even knew this, but one of the guys i chat with pointed this out, in 15 years of trading i never put the pieces together on this one, but this guy whose better than me swears it will be dead because of that, so the market could be slow next couple days especially after the shitty fed move, be careful out there today guys, and happy "Whatever holiday today is" to anyone who is Jewish watching the thread, but if your watching it your probably an addict like me who is still trading. :D
