We have now taken out that "fat finger" peak.


 

Because - fundamentals...

All is truly well.  The Bernank and Yellen have returned the markets to pushing all time highs.  What will be the encore?

My last pay check was $9500 working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do... www.jobs-review.com

Back in the good old days, this was known as "the fix is in". Things like volatility are dangerous and so must be suppressed....

Volume pathetic even by recent standards, needed tons of VIX to get 15 DOW points, seems more machines taking advantage of typical pre-FOMC steppin to the sidelines by daily traders, rather than a renewed bull push (i.e., likely to fade by 1:45 Wed), but you never know ....

When to load up on TVIX is the question... or how better to stagger acquisition of said instrument.

The Dow and the S&P 500 are both forming ending diagonal triangles. Once complete, an ending diagonal collapses to its base in an almost vertical fashion, We are within days of a crash as this DJIA chart indicates...

Can we stop using "Fat Finger" please, we all know it's contrived activity and an excuse.

Also "whale", "rogue", "mistake" and "weather" are equally bad excuses, people who are not even in the markets understand as rather lame and unbelievable.
