Well got the call wrong last night for Bearish but do still see a pullback on the chart, just hasn't arrived yet. One of those "The Chart" days... it's coming.
Baby Bear.

I'm going with 'baby bear' as well.
The VIX levels to watch going forward are 19.59 and 17.33.
The Summation Index is looking bullishly solid, but the Oscillator is a bit over-stretched.
I will be surprised if I get tomorrow right because it looks like a tough call after such a strong session today.

Cosmic, you say 'baby bear' but it appears that you voted 'baby bull'. Damn I think you're right let me see if I can put "retract" on and fix it. I don't mind if people adjust their vote... this isn't YMB where you only get 1 chance ;D

To compensate I voted Baby Bear with the admin account lol.

Baby bear
I think the S&P is getting a little ahead of itself here. It's tough to call as many are saying because S&P closed 1115 that this was enough to propel us futher so really I see tomorrow as a 50/50.

I didn't get out the super large bull horns that I had out for today, but I have my bull horns out nonetheless for Tuesday.

I'm spliting it...walking the fence...sold covered calls in fas and faz today, equal amounts
I win either way about 5% in 3 weeks.....if there's a big move- lower than 15.90 on faz or below 67 on fas.......i begin to lose.
I am contemplating puts......what do you guys think? whats the worst case fas falling off cliff to 50, or fas going hampton keys to 120?

I am a bearish...........dictated by my interpretation of current environment, charts, dollar,global geopolitical issues, Euro blah blah blah.....................The vix seems a bit to low in my opinion..........................I am surprised we did not experience larger volume when we hit the 1115 level...............GLTA

Definite Bear for tomorrow. Today’s action was lackluster in the financials. I anticipated a huge “up” day today (+20 points SPX), with it being the 1st day of the month and it being a Monday (401K contributions, and Hedgefund contributions). Just speculation, but it would seem or appear that the MM’s used today as an opportunity to thin their financial holdings – since financials did not participate, even with AIG’s good news/performance. Oil was down today, and the dollar was up slightly, both of which probably also dragged a little on the markets somewhat.
I sold my FAZ puts today at a breakeven (that I bought Friday to hedge my FAZ holdings). Holding FAZ and cash overnight.
Good luck everyone,

My my. The bulls have balls and are unafraid. The bears are all timid and babyish.
We poop out in a non-babyish fashion this week.

At the edge of outer most circle, so I can't see sideways. Break through, bullish, we're on to the new one (although this is the first new circle I've drawn since March that has a lower crest ), fail we stay inside this one. I have no idea which it will do. Bullish SPY 20 moving up thru 50 and would need significant down day to stop it now.

As your poll calls have been on fire, Uka, you need to really say it.

FWIW I'm the tie breaker(!)
What's the "50" plus/minus on? The Dow I presume?
