u should watch the House Financial Services Committee Hearing on TARP Oversight!... It's gonna take some time to filter through on the third person reporting of the journo's. It's damning and it's gonna cut the legs out of this rally if 'vestors have any brains. nuff said

u know what really scares me? ... this rally just lifts the oscillators to comfort levels ... and that is just not healthy in this market. I'm going long 2morrow if this keeps up; but my stops are gonna be tight as a gnats *****

no it won't. This is really a pheasant shoot. There are both traders (in cammo) and crazies (quite obvious) involved in this one. It's gonna run up, and then some, before it plunges...

It will be interesting to see if this one has legs, but I seriously doubt it...

This thing has bounce of the trend line a number of time and did just that at the close. And must say pulling up the fib puts the 61.8 at 8000.00 so yes and not for me. Must pull through for my confermation

Can I now finally short some gold shares? Please? I went short BIL today, because it broke a price line on my candle chart and the MACD had crossed over and there were falling tops on the RSI. And now this bloody rally! But, 'twas only 1 contract. Has a rally based on the fact that we've hit an x-year low EVER lasted? Usually just long enough to squeeze the ***** out of me. Dammit, if these bovines take me out on a short squeeze AGAIN - this bear is going to be very, very cross. Just remember what Charty said the other day - bears never run after their prey - because they know that next time they'll just take out a whole lot more! Grrrrr. Today economist Chris Heart said on the radio, that the US and UK are heading for depression. Everyone hear that??? Depression! John Mauldin this weekend wrote about the particularly sad outlook for European banks. Makes the US look like a Sunday school picnic. Now I know why dindins said here the other day that INP is going to god (zero). Me think so too.

How many years and tens of thousands of rands it had cost me to realise a simple fact --- its just not profitable trading against the trend.

That makes sense. Probably better to wait for a decent upleg and then catch a ride on the uptrend. Think I'll try that.
