DISQUS

Erik's Market View: I feel a BIG bounce coming.

  • greenlander · 5 months ago
    man I hope yre right! LOL Im still stuck from my Friday long positions. I agree that best way to go short is to play this potential bounce.

    But on the other hand, if we get a big gap down, it could be off to the races for shorts.

    FOMC dollar tank job? See COT analysis of where institutional traders put their money last week.

    Link Doesn't work? It's a compressed file of flash player. Anyways, I've got that lower line as major major super important too, but I have to wonder if it falls to at least shake people out first. It almost touched today on SPX but not quite. Interesting times. I expect crosses over and under to cause much confusion before it's decided on.

    boiiiiiIiiing. we shall see.

    I deleted the link....save it for later. :o)

    We shall see.....i don't know how much money is on the sidelines here, but I think this move down sucked in alot of shorts...too many.

    i think we see 925spx here in the next couple trading days

    check out cobra's institutional selling/ buying from stocktiming.

    look at his TLT chart from today..

    yep i saw that one.....they have been selling this thing for weeks, months even though....its such a leading indicator at times that is so early its wrong! lol.....but yea it can only hold and create divergance for so long till it breaks that way.....

    What is your opinion on MGM / LVS now? They were both up hard in after-hours (on relatively good volume I believe) on some MGM news ticker that auditors no longer consider it a "going concern". However the news tickers were not so detailed, and I have a feeling this could be a set up to suck in retail investors one last time. Not a chartist so I am trying hard to figure out if they are on their next leg up or if this is a fakeout.

    Q, they are sure high beta plays. But i don't have THAT much conviction on those 2 names....
    I think they both get a nice POP higher here over the next couple days, along w/ the broad market.....but they to me are risky...and both are names that i prefer look for entries to go SHORT...not long. (just have had more sucess w/ that direction on the both of them, so perhaps im directionally bias)...i sure as hell would not short them here at this entry.

    so basically i really dont have too much of an opinion of either of them. I mean it's bullish short term, but those specific plays just are not the most "safe"...that's all to me. Then again if the market pops here, i bet those are some of the biggest movers too.
