Lemur Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Great results on STX yesterday and nobody wanted the stock. A warning shot across the bows yes but appl had a technical breakout after earnings on good volume. So I dunno. Guess it will go with the mkt.

I_Am_Madness Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Looking to add my other half of my core ES short (covered yesterday at 1074 for about 18 points) on any bounce to 1084-1086. If it doesn't get there and we go straight down, then i'll be more than happy holding just the other half. trade safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it closes at 200 by tomorrow that's going to be one hell of a fake out breakout on the weekly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicagoBear Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 This kind of reporting just irks me. From the IBD newspaper this am: "The mood turned junk-yard dog ugly with the next bit of news. Influential banking anal cyst Richard Bove of Rochdale Securities triggered the sharp selling with a downgrade. He slashed Wells Fargo to sell from hold. From that moment, the indexes moved rapidly south." How do you put your finger on one anal cyst and blame him for a rout? That's just ridiculous. If it wasn't him, it would have been something else. Same thing today, there will be a catalyst of some sort to blame for the selling that's coming. What's worse, and I hate to criticize IBD because I owe them my trianing and they typically provide fantastic services, but they changed their Market Outlook to "Uptrend under pressure" which is a signal to momo-junkies to stop buying and consider taking some profits. That is a huge disservice in light of just one man's analysis of one company. I'm not implying I think the markets will go higher; they may have it right this time. But the facts are they've been whip-sawed into changing their market outlook 6 times now since the rally started. I guess if they do this enough sooner or later they get it right (and then they can brag about it in their commercials ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
