BartTheBear Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 If this is really stupid, sorry. Don't hedgehogs use options? And wouldn't taking off puts and putting on calls be a wash? It's still a mystery to me where the liquidity for this rally has come from. They also short. The tell was so many issues were not available to short this week. Some people think the entire rally from 95-2000 was short covering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wndysrf Posted September 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 Nothing really bearish here, except a possible breakdown in the drug sector. http://stockcharts.com/candleglance?$...24;A|h20,7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the other charts look classically bullish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockLedge Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 I took the bait on CDE and cashed the shares out. I'm going to regret it, I just know it. Standard headfake procedure into the close. Monday it'll be over $4.00, for sure. (sigh) Thanks stoolies for all of the laughs on IDS today. Too funny!

scottcardiff Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 For a glance at what is going to happen eventually to every single one of PD's long picks, look no further than FWHT today. Then go to Schaeffers website and look at the outstanding put/call ratio on FWHT. Very low. Many more calls than puts, hence everybody's in the pool, hence, no one left to buy, hence BOOM Look at GILD. Low put/call ratio. Can't tick up at all. Then look at the semi's. very high outstanding put/call ratios. Almost impossible to get a downtick. Look at the hysteria put buying on the internuts, YHOO, EBAY, AMZN. No downticks ever!!

Captain's Log Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 The End : I hear you old chap. Below is excerpt from sept 18th alert from www.Mktcycles.com site. It highlight charts of stocks, commodities and financials that are +2 or -2 sigma wrt to their trend. He uses Hurst as a method. Pay attention to what he saying about the S&P. I don't go much on the october linkage as "santa clause" rally didn't happen on time nor did the "sell in may & go away" happen either. However, I do pay attention to the sigma level on his chart. ------------------------------------- Standard & Poor's Index: You'd have to say that the most dangerous part of the year for the US Stock Market is the month of October. The crash of 1929, the crash of 1987, and many other "mini" crashes have occurred during October. Now take a look at the WEEKLY charts for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index: Sigma Bands Signal Bands Cyclical Decompositions Curvilinear Envelopes As you can see the red momentum line on the weekly Sigma Band chart continues to stay above its own +4 Sigma level. Notice also that as the S&P 500 Index has reached its +3 Sigma level the red momentum line is simply moving sideways at its own +4 Sigma level. Also, on the daily Sigma Bands the red momentum line continues to stay slightly below the black momentum line, indicating a slight downward bias in the S&P. All these factors combined are indicating a possible Stock Market drop and if the weekly charts are any indication, the Standard & Poor's could drop on the order of 100 points, if not more! Be very careful about going long on any stocks in this Market. Our daily charts for the S&P 500 are at: --------------------- Note from Doc- If any of you stoolies want to check out this service, and support the Stool, use this link.
