  1. I was long then short........they were both pain free. :p

    In trading, "no pain equals a lot more gain" :D

  2. i can empathize with you man. reality is coming. personally i've just been working on systematically defining highs in the meantime, and scaling in short at shock and awe highs with a little patience has been rewarding

    Dont overweight fundamentals;

    Keep it fun, dont overweight fundamentals like you did.

    Also first day/week of month tends to be bullish;
    weak rally for sure [see august 1st candle,ES YM closed a bit lower, despite eod rally]:cool:

    ESpecially dont overweight CNBC news like quote''Bird flu for sure, pandemic'';not only are many predictions wrong just read a another report by a medical Dr, bird flu probably a non event.[Not a prediction:D ]

  7. Today is a classic jam the futures day with little underlying movement in the issues. In case anyone hasnt realized the market is really just concerned with liquidity and nothing else. Its easy to do 5000 futures and jam this crap higher. its been this way for years now.

  8. cramer is right that everything is just etfed and indexed to death. The trading is really more dominant than whats behind it. I guess thats why exchange stocks have done so well.

  10. this is getting so boring. Stocks should be glad that oil and energy is high because it is the only think holding the spoos up. I love this csco nonsense after the close.
