Plasma, many are long :) Only those with sticky shorts that can't see the light at end of tunnel (yes, it is a train... With a light).



Train has already hit me, waiting for the last set of wheels to either come or give me some relieve ....:)

Away for 45 min and took a double take getting back....speechless. Did kill 2 shorts just after 9. Two were left, expecting perhaps another 50 points down. Now again deep in red ..... :(. Soul destroying.

Well done to all who had the long insight. Lekkerry, Abs etc ..

you should really learn to put stop losses on your trades if you leave the screen ...

Need to have quick hands, going to go down fast (600 points), need to take profit and switch, then it will run back up..! :)

Trading by emotion and/or expectation is a pocket emptying certainty.

From your perspective, Lekkerry is faceless and to a degree nameless, so any opinions expressed are just that, opinions from someone on the Internet  :D

I think we have to drop way more than 500 points for you short entry point to be profitable.

Think that 500+ points drop is around the corner....also still in my shorts!

From there up again and the momentum should slow into next week... :rolleyes:

That 500 would take me out of the red with my last two shorts. But this overall leaves me a couple of K down, including this expected dip.

Haha those guys took a beating last week, they trade with millions of funds, their latest report said the SPX is just overshooting...!But still think they are right with a new bear leg coming over our winter...

 

Most of the times they are right but with this market think there is few traders that can make money riding the full waves!

 

Your QE is doing its thing!:0)

Argento, those UBS traders friends of yours that said we are going to drop. Are they now looking for jobs? :)
