    Also RDT...his AAPL call was good for several dollars buying at 09.31 on 1/18.

    A very useful thing to have is a consistent loser to fade. I've read on the blog of another ET member who is a very proficient operator that this was an old floor trick on the CBOT.

    I don't usually trade stocks, however the APPL was too good to miss, and I'd never have spotted it without RDT!

  2. We may get a gap down tomorrow. Expected January unemployment is 9.5%, but Gallup believes unemployment is 9.8%. [​IMG]

  3. why would that gap us down. high unemployment is good for the market. it ensures more qe.

  4. Market gaps down many days, about 8 times out of 10 in the last 6 months its a dip to buy.

  5. The market doesn't see it that way. Bad jobs numbers would cause a gap down because masses of unemployed people are bad for consumer spending.... at least that's the narrative CNBC would go with.

    17-8 in favor of bearish. Quite pathetic. Need to see 30-1 bullish before I get bearish. ET is my favorite indicator!
