Spy - today we made a significant new high, imo. I have no clue but the purple channel might be in play now. Just an idea. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

What is Bernanke saying this morning that is so different than yesterday?
Squid, I say, is in his top form.

UK, I read your post on DDSS. I did some napkin calcs, and this is just about exactly the level we would need to go to for hedgie money to dump if they got trapped. Volume is up a little, but 100K shares was all it needed for a huge bump, so I'd take that with a grain of salt.
I see no news items, and after watching what the market did to NEPH, I'd be hesitant to invest back into DDSS until it's well clear of this area.

Carl - Revised range estimate: 1078-1097 Ment having a strong day. Icahn is trying the take control. AKS has pushed up to near 15. 15 is key. The long base indicates possible accumulation. Vix is likely going to fail at the 200dma today or tomorrow. When it gets to 20 I will start to worry about complacency I think CPCE gave a good signal, btw. That was a big jump and an elevated level. This is just a note to keep an eye on it after days like yesterday.

Early in the trading session assuredly.
But today at this point is a '90% up day'.

I read you on ddss. I really dislike stocks like that. My basic stock mantra is to stick to my knitting. It has avoided the pink sheets for the time being. It's b/s blows.

Early in the trading session assuredly. But today at this point is a '90% up day'. tick has been in a very bullish pattern today: highs (two) at +1200 and lows only at -300. That's very strong. Trin is 0.7, also very strong. We need a close above the April top rail. The watch is the old mantra that Alphatrends always repeats - from failed patterns come fast moves. If we confirm above the top rail and that down channel becomes a failed pattern, we could really have a rip. I think 110.1 needs to be taken out decisively. The reverse is also in play here - fail to take out the top rail, and we could plummet fast. No time to be complacent.

The stock charts data on cpce can be weird intraday. I checked it last night and it was over 0.83. I don't know why it has a lower number now.

Personally, I think yesterday was the squidly move. We tanked before he even opened his mouth. Today is more a continuation of what had been going on. The main non-confirmation I see is TNX. But the long term chart shows that TLT has run to the top of a 7 year channel, so the big move is perhaps over.

Finally, I'd say the key is not that we advance from here but that we hold above about 108 and show that buyers can be comfortable getting back in. That's what has been missing this summer. If prices hold gains, we'll get accumulation and form a base to move up.
