Sounds divisive to me...I thought we were all here to beat the market not on each other?

Divisive for congratulating someone for making a good call or a good trade? I don't do it myself, but I wouldn't even mind people bragging about their winning calls or trades. Besides, you may be the one getting the congrats.

Come to think of it, FIB, when's the last time you ever congratulated someone for posting a good comment, making a good call, or a good trade? Did you ever do that at all?

Winners get to brag, and losers get to congratulate the winners..

I am a bear. To me markets are producing their Top of the countertrend rally begun in March 2009. They could take till 5-6 April to start,
but then they should come down in the same way they did in 2007...................first wave down about 15 % in two-three months.
Not a vertical drop.

I had a feeling you were really a closet bearullish.

I do not see how 1130 holds for more than a 15-20 point bounce if 1150 goes we are on our way to 1080 or less. The dollar showed it's hand and oil jumped the creek but not gold (not good for gold). the equities were heading up until the job number. Now the dollar is getting closer to cracking 81 and to it's likely bounce area of 80 with the equities heading south. *not good for equities this time*.

Liby have fun and do not run into a tree. I like your charts. :D

Besides, you may be the one getting the congrats.

I'm sorry, but I feel uncomfortable playing a game that promotes discord among its members.

That's not what I'm here for...please take me off your list.

Thank you in advance.

I'd rather know about a thought process (TA) than an action (position), probably because there is knowledge to be gained from the former. Just my preference, if I really need to choose between one of the two.
