Tulips!  Go Long Tulips!

 

Volume is amazingly non-existant.  I wonder when the HFTs will look around the room and ask the question who they will sell this crap to?  No problem, they will just sell it to themselves again.

Dont forget that crude oil went from about $140 to $40 right after the 2007 crash.  The global recession has only increased since then.

I'm making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... www.globe-report.com

I wouldn't call todays market surging except in a preparing to barf kind of way. We have reached the point where no matter what happens, the market goes up. I just thank god that I live far, far away from any big city.....

I think volatility may have been dumping just a bit before, so I wonder if the dollar move was more of a symptom.  My theory:   w/ big funds on sideline = 0 volume, powerful Daily algos, which were pushing toward Keltner tops (which IWM already tagged yesterday), use VIX/RVX/VXN in lieu of real demand.  If correct, VIX will control the close more than the $ (though machine linkages might make the point moot).

To keep it safe we may need to tiptoe in, with Vix 10's-11's, and when the SPX is plowing new ground at the same time. Manipulated makets need a bit more rope.  The fat lady is tuning up.

I'm going to watch for the customary extended hours dip, pray for rain and hopefully watch the magic unfold. It's been a while and the fat lady needs to get laid.

Any volatility is now dead and I'm pretty sure whoever put $9 "put" options on UVXY for 50 million dollars is CLEARLY in the know!  I can't help but think of anything else as I lose my ASS in uvxy....

My ass hurts!

if i was your english teacher, u would get an F the way u worded ur post.

 

the critical mistake u made, was '' i knew it would be a weird day in the MARKETS'' using the word ''MARKETS'' without quotations is implying there are still ''MARKETS'' around.

 

please next time use quotations when using the word ''MARKETS'' and dont pretend its a normal word anymore, because there are no longer ''MARKETS''.

Very true. I was mainly referencing the continual inventory build in oil. The lack of demand should be driving the price down, let alone the production increase by KSA announced today.

Everything is counter-intuitive in the market anymore. It is sad when the real casino's here in Reno are more legitamite.

The big Chinese ETF -- FXI -- is up 22% in a month -- and is getting BUY recommendations -- all while the Chinese economy collapses!  Stock market bubbles are sustainable as long as there is still a belief that the central banks will ease even MOAR!

     The $usdx is approching the 50day avg. for the third time since early March. This might be the time it breaks through. Traders know the US equity markets are overbought and earnings are shit. Japan, and China have been buying the $usd like crazy. (more so Japan)

 Look at this UST build by Japan. They're backing off now, with Fed. rate uncertainty. The equity market traders buying the $usd selloff is laughable.

Aren't all moving averages a mirage regarding trend prediction? They have no validation apart from the circular one that they "work" because the "market participants believe in them".

I don't want to miss the oil move up so I bought UCO jan 2017 calls, $15 strike for $1.60. I have almost two years to let oil work its way back up. I don't think I'll even watch oil for awhile and maybe in a year and some change look and be like, "wow, uco is $40 and those calls are worth $25 that I bought for $1.60."

I still think oil is heading to a buck a barrel.

We'll see about refined product...but oil at 40$ is way over priced.
