Black Monday in October 1987 was the Monday after option-ex. The 19th day of the month number is less significant.
"Getting that feeling again today." Doing well so far. Is this based on any Technical Analysis or Macro Analysis? You just give your Crystal balls a rub and Presto?
LOL. I don't look at charts or anything like that (because I don't yet know what I am looking at!), it just felt like the market was strong yesterday in the sense that if the bears still had control it should have faded hard yesterday like its done so many times previously after a rally of a few days. It tried to, but came back at the end some. So it felt like today would be the bulls in place yet again. Just a "feeling" I had.
Fair and valid point. Not one I subscribe to, but perhaps a specific thread on the topic will popup in the currency/forex section.
%% Some males + some females decide well + wise a lot by feelings; but there is more to it, if they are any good. [1] For example Olympic shotgun shooter Kim R shot well as young kid , but better as an older woman, so experience counts also. I remember my banker dad ,when i was a kid , telling me '' i dont feel like going to work Monday; but so what , go to work anyway!!'' [777.666]Boy plunger 'felt like'' the market was going down , right before San Fran major e\quake. Good call . But blew up accounts more than once + blew his brains out\ never got the memo on money management\position size .
%% Good; you changed your mind+ called it up, after '' uncalled your [up] call'' Good bear rally OCT maybe a bear killer ; we will know by end of month. Main trend still down, but good bear rally call
