read the article...
In October 19th, 1987 the stock market crashed. The DJIA closed down 22.6% for the day. A similar drop in today's market would equal approximately 1800 points. Volume was an unbelievable 604.3 million shares, almost double the previous record of 338.5 million shares set on the previous Friday. The DJIA was down 36.7% from its closing high less than two months earlier.

I have found the lottery number thanks in my system.
The DOW moves are all Mathmatical and I can prove it. ITS ALL A CON. This is no FANCY SYSTEM I HAVE HERE. IT has broken the DOW sequence CODE.

I would just like to add that looking at bids likely signals historically they do show a move in the opposing direction to the call before a large move in his favour.
I do not support the meltdown theory by the way :cheesy:

TAKE 1,800 away from 11,400 = 9,600.....which is JUST above A MAJOR support Level on OCTOBER 25th 2004 if we did fall that far. This looks like a Major SUPPORT LEVEL. Have a look at your graphs.

Bid, or should i say, Batty. It's cards on the table time. I know you. You are asian, are you not? I will not take 'no' as your answer. I'm not bothered about your poor spelling, and what you are saying does not bother me, you supply this site with zero. Anybody in thier right mind should find the more humorous side to you. As 'shwing' trading goes you are probably in the the ball park.........i just don't think you can handle the small print. Prove me wrong.

BAT, you've been spamming the whole of the US indices threads with the same post! The same post repeated more than once uses up server space and is irritating. And your big red letters hurt my eyes.
You also give readers no means of verify anything you say. If someone says I believe in angels because I've met them, you might be interested, but you wouldn't believe in angels yourself because of it, would you? Even if they showed you lots of photos of them sitting with angels, you'd still not be sure... You want to see, comprehend and discover it for yourself. Or like teaching children "the Earth is round" and when they ask why, you say because I am clever, and I KNOW, without teaching them or hinting at why it might be round by saying for example "look at the horizon, is that a straight line?".
If you want people to believe anything you say, you must justify yourself. If you just want people to think you're amazing but teach them nothing, then like a magician you play card tricks with them "tell them the market will crash and see them watch in disbelief as it does as you say", and if you want to look a fool, then you do the same and let them watch your trick unravel and go wrong.
If you said you thought there would be a crash and told them what sort of pointers lead you to think this, but you're not sure because the market has an uncanny way of throwing curveballs once in a while, then people would have a lot more respect for you and really appreciate your input. As it is, you're getting a hard time which you have brought upon yourself because of your self-righteousness.
Personally, I think we might well break 470 and maybe even 500 also; in any case your official stop at 420 for your short is distinctly precarious.
But back to the DOW, does anyone know in the longer term how DOW and the Dollar behave in tandem? If dollar starts weakening, do foreign investors run scared or on the contrary do they accumulate at the bargain prices?
