You are a brand new trader, with 1/2 of a day under your belt, according to your own admission. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=215580 "I am a virgin! Well, to be precise, I am a virginal trader. Actually, I guess I just lost my virginity. I have worked exactly half a day as Proprietary Day Trader. Not a bad first day. I didn't lose any money! Profit? $3.50 (after fees) on $10,000 of capital. I am a student trader still. Need to earn $2000 of profit in one month to graduate and receive more capital to trade. I have been given complete freedom to trade any stocks priced under $30 on the Nasdaq, TSX, or NYSE. Minimum 100 share lots. I guess I can chose more expensive stocks, but with minimum 100 share lots this is risky. I've been reading a lot about people's experiences on this forum and others. I am curious to know how many of you trade by yourself, and how many of you work for someone else. My suspicion is that those who start by themselves tend to do more poorly at first. Am I right? Any further recommendation would be appreciated. Please, help me to succeed as quickly as possible. Thanks." All of a sudden you are an expert on how mkts act?? Something doesn't seem right
To me instability would mean a flight to the Japanese Yen. I still don't fully understand why this is so but the yen seems to be a refuge in times of uncertainty. Disclosure : long the yen March contract

Fireplace, Do you understand the difference between Day Trading and reading the markets as a whole? A person can be an expert at understanding the macro situation, yet know nothing about trading!
Yes. I said expect big moves and to go long CAD. I think we dip hard tomorrow following by a nervous bernanke propping up stocks. This is consistent with the Buy the Fucking Dip meme and what I've been saying all along.
