What are your beliefs? What do you think drives markets?

Technically Fundamental · Aug 13, 2009, 8:34am

why didn't you come earlier. I've been waiting for someone who knows what they're talking about to come.

Shut me up anyway.

Is that true of "the markets" on the whole or of an individual market?

Anyway... we come right back to supply and demand with money flow

Shadowninja logging into msn, a kid using a sketch, mood, sentiment, offer, demand, liquidity, trends, volumes....

I keep thinking that all those are mere reflections of the real reasons.
And those actual reasons will remain in the shadows, unattainable for us.

If you were talking to me, I was here earlier http://www.trade2win.com/boards/gene...tml#post862594

All markets are basically auction markets, so it all comes down to money in the end. 'Course "economic conditions" have to be seen in the context of the particular market you're interested in.

good trading

I missed that post barjon. (S/D again lol.) Added to my understanding of the importance of gauging open interest

A know it's a bit off the subject here but looking at the reasoning in that post, are these failed bond auctions likely to soften the blow of the next wave of QE or am I missing something?

I think you ARE missing something, or maybe seeing something that isn't there. What failed auctions?

The ones in the news back in March and the sketchy June ones.

I believe the UK had the one. Sketchy doesn't count as failed, otherwise the list could be long indeed.

I think is about liquidity, so money flows. Just ask to the chineses, after the goverment said they are going to start to control where goes the credit, the market is falling 20%.

When you have more money in your pocket, you start to spend in more trivial purchases and services.
