Dow futures off 550. circuit breakers tripped before the market even opens. Looks like we are headed for free fall. Hope your parachutes were packed carefully.
It's really not too bad right now for the buy and pray people since 8200 - 8300 seems to be a good support. As the time goes by well see if this is due to fundamentals or emotion. Either way, the trend is your friend.

Hmmmm. I'll have to look at the San Bernardino Sam Club this weekend and see what the price is there. The prices that I mentioned earlier is from Chevron and 76, which is usually high out here. Gas is always higher priced up here on the hill since they have to truck it up a 15 mile long grade that climbs 4,800 feet. My Price Lock card for $2.99/gallon was nice for pumping gas around here, doesn't make much difference down the hill. With the way crude is dropping, it might not make a difference at all soon.

I am pretty close to a stereotypical turtle trader. That is I don't put much faith in prognostications about the fundamentals of a security. I just make short to mid term trades based on TA(the chart) and couple of simple price pivot strategies. If I actually took buy and hold seriously I'd probably be more concerned with fundamentals and long term outlooks.

Thought so. Myself, I'm more fundamentals. I used to have huge arguments about technical analysis with a couple of hedge fund guys. Not sure how they're doing in this market, but I'd be curious. I know one guy who is really into momentum trading. I suppose in the end it doesn't matter as long as you make some gains and remain solvent...

I hate to say it but it's been a pretty decent time right now. These short buy and sell cycles are almost easily predictable right now. But, I am closing my positions pretty quickly these days since I honestly fear that there is some market manipulation that is keeping the market from breaking out further downward.

No un-covered positions for me. I had an acquaintance who got the "margin call of death" when I first started this years ago. I was scared into covering everything since then.

Yeah, yeah. Capital markets drive the economy, be very careful about vilifying them. When rich nations do well, poor nations benefit. When rich nations do badly, poor nations suffer. Capitalism is not the evil it's made out to be, but it does make a convenient scapegoat.
