told me there was a new generated daily sar buy signal ................hope he didn ' t really buy anything. The march rally has gone in my opinion.....................waiting for a bottom in february-march and a partial recovery by the elections........................just a personal opinion...................at least not a daily sar buy signal. Nothing personal, just joking. Hope jokes are allowed in this forum

Did I hear a call for jokes? A guy runs into a bar and asks the barkeep, "Give me ten shots of your best whisky." The bartender sets up the ten glasses. The man starts drinking them as quickly as the bartender serves them. The bartender asks, "Why are you drinking so fast?" "You'd drink fast too, if you had what I have." The bartender asks, "What do you have?" "Seventy cents."

That would probably be me...and the buy signal was generated. Sometimes it works out, and sometimes it doesn't. We can only go with what is given until it stops working. Regardless, the trend of money flow was showing quite a bit of fatigue over the last couple of weeks, and all it took was populist rhetoric and it just snowballed. Being blind sided by the mere mention of changing the capitalistic status quo is part and parcel of this business and why being flexible in ones convictions should be part of every traders temperament.

Nothing personal, just joking.

Sure it was personal. Just because you don't call someone out by name, but do so by implication, doesn't change the spirit of the post and its content. It really doesn't bother me, and I'm very happy that after several weeks of the market moving against you (and many others) that things are working out to your satisfaction.

Fib, don' t take it so, I didn' t mean to be rude. I was wondering two days ago about that buy signal, but I preferred not arguing against it.
BTW....................... how do you know the market has moved against me for weeks if I have begun posting more frequently just very recently after a long-long time ?
I trade stocks ......not futures and I' m also very prudent ..........i.e. I don' t take great risks.............and this pays me out in the mid-long term. Besides that I am able to manage my position whichever it is.
Anyway I was a bit joking with my previous post..................Anyone was giving me lessons here three days ago, because of my actual bearish bias, but that didn' t hurt me for the same reason that you shouldn' t feel hurt now. A bit of self irony, which I am used to, helps to take life in the right way, imo. Sincerely, not joking.

Fib has always been most eager to share his vast knowledge of technical analysis. I'm not sure why "populist rhetoric" was needed to explain a market swing that could have been projected with some basic TA.

populist retoric ...........I must write down this one. Is there anyone here accepting even a very-very slight form of criticism ? I don' t know personally fib, but I am very convinced he is very good at analyzing markets given the vast support he has here. That said, call it a swing or whatever you like it, but at least spend just a line to invite people not to give away lessons for free about how bullish the market is two days before the nasdaq drops 2.6%. And I' m not talking about fib in this moment. I' m talking in general...........when the market is in an exhausting rally mode, posting a bearish message here is like being miscredents..................am I miscredent ? Well I' m happily miscredent then.

Being perma-either-direction is not very productive for a technical analyst. This last down swing could very easily be a C-wave and then those "perma-bulls" you mention will look quite smart.
