#563Levin is an idiot. he acts as though GS is supposed to hold your hand while betting your money and keep you from losing too much. Does any casino do that?
Congress has no clue what goes on in the offices on Wall Street.
BTW, looks like a short coming unless the S&P can rebound with some conviction. I selling IWM short for the short term, and starting to reenter my metals positions for the longer term.Comment -

Good job, I have been trading forex on and off for about 18 months now. I have some good weeks and some bad weeks. Just like gambling.
If you look at Aud/Usd it is resting right on the 50% retracement line. It already rejected the lower fib line, I think it is going to test it again coming up pretty soon. we will see. Glad that there is another forex guy here.Comment -

#572Dead cat in action today. As a rule when I see a capitulation candle stick on my daily chart like I did thursday, I always buy XLF, IWM, SMH, and SPY because I know they will always rally. Now they say Thursday was a freak occurence, I believe otherwise. the volume wasn't there, and people were dumping stocks. I totally got screwed over on a couple of trades when I saw the price was too good to be true. They should allow those to be good trades. Just because someone like me was laying in the weeds, waiting to buy on a huge dip, doesn't mean that I shouldn't see those gains. How did I know that it wasn't going to continue? That's called gambling, and had I lost I wouldn't have been looking for a way out. The way they have it now is I get penalized for doing sound charting. Effers.
Anyway, enjoy the dead cat for a day or so, then I believe another pull back is in order, but not as deep as last week.Comment -

#574So the crooks across the world waited until last week to coordinate an attack on the Euro last week to exacerbate the Greek tragedy, a problem that everyone knew about many weeks ago. Talk about legalized stealing. Expect more hissy fits from these band of thieves as we get closer to Wall St. reform passing.Comment -

Your right this volume sucks. I'm waiting to see if any new money comes in before the close, then make my short plays accordingly if the buyers are less than the sellers from Friday or Thursday's action.Comment -

#579Trading Recommendation - If the market is above 1040 at 3:30 PM, sell a bull put spread in the June SPX contracts at the 1145/1150 strikes and write a bear call spread at 1150/1155. This will create an iron condor at a very nice credit.Comment -

#584Even though they are getting pounded, and I have a short term short play on FCX, I am stepping back in here with another toe in the water with a 100 shares long. This will mean that I will have 1000 short and now 250 long, and for the next couple of weeks, I will be increasing the number of shares acquired and decreasing the number shorted. This flight to the dollar and out of the profitable equities is a chance to jump in the commodities for the long run.Comment -

#586Possible opportunity to go long.
Equities have been under severe pressure in recent sessions, buffeted by the crumbling of the Euro, the continuing impasse in fixing the Gulf oil spill, North Korean blustering, and now the confrontation of Israelis and Palestinians. Given that environment, shares have held up remarkably well, fighting off attempts to drive the SPX back to and below support down at the 1040/1050 level. One reason for this stand is the expectation of a blow out jobs number this coming Friday, with predictions as high as a 700,000 increase. Whilst that number seems overly optimistic, other data leading up to the report support the idea that there will be a good boost in employment. Technical indicators lend credibility to the probability of a near term rally. Most prominent amongst them is the action of the MACD. Now at a deeply oversold level, an upside cross appears to be forming. That cross will likely occur on Friday, assuming a positive jobs report. That should pave the way for a quick move towards the SPX 1150 level, which is the right shoulder of the head and shoulders top noted in a previous commentary. Only time will tell, of course, but being short at this juncture is far more dangerous than being long.Comment -

#590Well you just know that the jobs report tomorrow is going to be a blow out number. I smell a rat here with all of the hype coming from CNBC. It better be a good report, the expectations are sky high.
Also forget about buying BP. You will get cut up pretty bad catching that knife, instead why not try oil service stocks. I don't really have a favorite so I just bought some OIH in the last 15 minutes.
Good Luck, and hopefully the fake jobs report comes in huge tomorrow, but I think the fix is in.Comment -
