  2. Walked away from the computer after getting flat and missed the short at 11260 (using my indicators) and it rounded at 11230...

    oh well... I try and force myself away when I am down and make it back to even so I can clear the old noggin. Sometimes you miss the next move doing that LOL...

    That last bottom was in October, a time when the market normally hits a low. Now it's May, a time when the market normally starts a decline.

    Great point, we'll need to consolidate here to salvage the trend otherwise a slide down into the abyss. However with inflationary fiscal policies and massive amounts of cash sitting on the sidelines an educated guess would be a final parry into the yearly highs before the prolonged decline. When that occurs is yet to be seen, I don't think the past few days selling indicates it.

  10. sure, lots of similarities; oct decline was also caused mainly by inflationary worries..of course we also got pathetic earnings back then..so maybe this time just cuz earnings were great and fcst extremely good mkt will bottom before it reaches 1260, and this won't be da start of a serious tumble. but hard to tell if we'll go down some more... seems like this fall is caused mainly by fear driven speculation over inflation, innit[?]
