I wouldn't be at all surprised to see further significant falls from today's levels.

All it needs is a few more w*ankers to keel over.

Sorry, I meant bankers.

Same thing really I guess.

The only thing, what really COULD surprise me ... if I could not profit from it ... no matter, what direction it takes

Fully agree, even though it might mean making money out of the misfortune of others.

Who cares anyway, survival of the fittest etc etc....tra la la ..

Nobody is forced to play I do futures ... this is just good old fighting ONE on ONE ...

TV journalists love this game but it is a waste of time.

I intend to trade what the market is doing, not trade what I think it will do. I am prepared for it to go up or down and will trade it accordingly, but no time need be wasted on finding the bottom.

Very Good post tomorton



This MUST be the bottom Tomorton

your week swing trend setting 5 on the rsi just popped out of the bottom of my pc and stabbed me in the leg :-)

Looking at the DOW chart including all data since its inception, this "correction" looks to be the largest ever.

I am just wondering whether this is a natural correction which occurs on a cyclical basis and which will inevitably be followed by a full market recovery, as in past years or whether we are actually witnessing the complete and utter irreversible breakdown of the world's established financial systems.

Any thoughts ?

I hear that George Bush is going to address the nation tonight to reassure them about the economy.

That almost certainly means the markets will tank again big time.

On second thoughts, scrub the word " almost ".
