Did the "team" go to work today? Funny how the "news" came out just as the market was breaking down.

No. Didn't have to. All it took was a phone call to a few of corner offices on Wall St., Broad St. and 225 Liberty St. It was the perfect day technically, to do it. The "leak" on CNBC just insured that the rest of the herd would follow.

The bears dropped the soap today. The saw us breaking down intraday
out of the triangle so they shorted with a stop back up inside, just like it says.
That sure fooled the boyz. Plus, bears need to learn to count to 5.

Anyway, the pattern continues to be "good."

Elliott Wave was telling me exactly where to get long on ES yesterday (within 1 point)...confirmed by a few other things. Was it telling me to get long because of price pattern....or was it telling me to get long because an announcement was coming? Or both? With the right TA...volatility is your friend...it's the hand that paints the picture..not the brush. :angel_not: I know this will spark one of those "Elliott Wave is useless" rants from a few....but I won't be participating. :pokey: :rolleyes:

Good or bad thing?
Some inside phone calls did something strange in the minute wave count around
noon and blew up the impulse, then being reset by an X wave. Bring it on.

The more they wind up the oscillators with inside trading the larger the bearish divergence.
Like Frankin said, they get the govt they deserve.

I have to agree. ES was acting very strange down there at 1328.50. It definitely felt like there was an invisible hand holding up the market right there whenever it wanted to break down.

Teaparty: "One more ABC then I'll call CNBC!"
That's hilarious. Good one!

To me it seemed like the most advertised wedge/triangle market breakdown in history.
Ray Charles was showing it to Stevie Wonder.
Andrea Bocelli was even singing about it.

That reminds me of this joke: LINK

By the way, to clarify my post, Merrill Lynch is the one located at 225 Liberty St. (2 World Financial Center).
