    Just go to Wikipedia
    and look at emotional fallacy argument or Google it.
    I like logic, studied it in college years ago.
    Market doesn't give a rats ass about logic.
    I prefer now, to think in terms of Buddhism.
    No good, no bad, no right argument, no wrong argument, no evil person, no good person, etc.
    Same with stock price, buy low sell high, bad news price rises, buy, bad news stock price drops, sell.
    The OP is looking for sympathy for his premise.
    He didn't say what his premise was.
    It's a simple emotive argument designed to appeal to feelings,
    I lost in the market, it is a bad place and it doesn't make any sense that it's
    going up.
    The appeal to emotion fallacy presents a perspective intended to be superior to reason. Appeals to emotion are intended to draw visceral feelings from the acquirer of the information

    thanks for trying to help, that wasn't my point, i'm just trying to say there seems to be an inverse relation between the performance for economy to the markets, if u can see

    I went short yesterday and lost money. I went long today and made it back plus a little more.

    And a bit too deep for wannabe traders who couldn't write a properly-punctuated sentence to save their life.
