I don't like this.

I don't like this price action at all.
Any weakness in IBB , DOW - and by-by.
Will sell all or 1/2 SSO today.
Shorting? How?
ES at fucking 1318 again! (For some bizarre reason this level is a magnet since last year)

iBergamot SLD : GDX, VVUS

GDX stoped out at 46.04 on break of 5min OR.   -3.5% loss
Stop on open gap-down would be 46.27 (little better), but I still think that stop on opening gap should be 5 or 30 min OR.

VVUS 1/2 day stop at 26.45
1:04pm  VVUS all out             +8.5% gain

DOW on-close stop  33.20  ( Canceled. High buy volume from 3:15pm. Will wait till tom)

Feeling FUCKED again...

Daaam, even Cobra...

well, guess that's it for today. rebound tomorrow maybe, but chances are more down ahead. Thank you guys, I'll see you tomorrow. I had a really bad day, accidentally stopped out the ES short with very tiny gain and missed the whole ride, so in bad mood now. I should absolutely stick to my rule, but why again and again and again I simply violate the rule thinking I could be lucky this time? I really don't understand myself. Be a trader really is difficult, as I never right, always wrong... :(

FED Day in real time

 12:50 pm et
Fucking amazing.
If I kept sell stop on GDX @ 46.50 (where I had it before announcement) I would be stopped out at 12:40et.
10 min later it prints 47.50. Sometimes stop is not your best friend.
VVUS stays flat, DOW goes to HOD (for now).
This is just first score. 2pm and 2:15 ( or 2:30) awaits - nucking futs.

3:00pm et
Still waiting. Reversal of reversal of reversal.

iBergamot BOT : GDX

BOT : GDX @ 47.65 on stop             PF target 58-59
Stop 46.50 and may be higher than that.
Very unusual for me to buy miners without metal (SLV ).
Looking to sell 1/2 SSO, maybe today - nope, lets wait
VVUS 1/2 day stop 26.35 (not hit)
(...hmm... VVUS   ... this is  a tough call. PF target is 29.50, but with today's action I'm not sure it will get there on this move. June 20 is Fed = I usually don't trade and cancel all stops. So, here is a plan: if gap down - all out after 1st 5 min candle; then 30min OR; dont do anything around Fed; reevaluate around 3pm)

Dr. Ed Yardeni : Corrections vs. Bear Markets

Dr. Ed's Blog: A Primer: Corrections vs. Bear Markets

" (1) During 2010, the S&P 500 forward P/E dropped 22% from a high of 14.7 on January 11 to a low of 11.4 during August 26. However, forward earnings rose all year. So the 16% correction in the S&P 500 from April 23 to July 2 was reversed by the end of the year, with the P/E ending at 13.1.


(2) During 2011, the P/E fell 25% from 13.6 on February 18 to 10.2 on October 3. Forward earnings rose during the first half of the year and remained mostly flat during the second half at a record high. So once again, the market recovered and closed higher by the end of the year with the P/E rebounding to 11.7.


(3) During 2012 so far this year, the P/E peaked at 13.0 on March 26. It was down 11% to 11.6 yesterday, just about matching the 2010 low, which was 11.4. The S&P 500 is down 9% from its high on April 2, which is still just a garden-variety correction. Meanwhile, forward earnings rose to a new all-time record high of $111.27 during the week of May 31. At this level, a retest of last year’s panic low P/E of 10.2 would push the S&P 500 down to 1135, which would be a 20% decline from the year’s high on April 2."
Thanks, Dr. Ed

Nicolas Darvas

"...I have learned that, despite the sharpest market shake-out since the 1930s, the current breed of investors had not change their spots. Tidbits of information here, a slight trace of sense over there, a twice-told and often misunderstood story at yet another time was  chiefly what they relied on to put their hard-earned money to work in the stock market."

iBergamot BOT: VVUS

 VVUS at 24.40. Stop 22.50, but will raise asap.
day stop 23.25 -  6/11/12
               24.60 - 6/14/12

US T-Bond Bubble.

I hear a giant sucking sound.
Its the US Treasuries sucking all the money and capital in the world. Pulling $$ from any productive use of capital. Paying 2.7% on 30-year paper (2.51% at the low).
I tried to borrow 10k at 3% for 30 years from everybody I know. They just laugh at me. But millions of people give it to treasuries without any second thoughts. Hmm.
Notations on a chart are not mine, and they are a complete nonsense. Whats important is a fact that there is no active investor alive, who traded T-Bond at lows in 1980's and could foresee prices that high (or yield so low). Even more important - there is no active investor alive, who seen a bear market in US Treasuries. But that is nothing. Why? Because the hard right edge of this chart is not active investors, but pensions, IRA's, mom-and-pop etc., who have no clue what shit they got themselves into.

IBergamot BOT: SSO. VIX buy signal.

BOT: SSO at 48.66.  Stop on close below 47.70.
                                   Stop raised  50.15  -  6/14/12

Here is a VIX buy signal, but its not the only thing Im looking at. Also A/D Indicator having pos. divergence (if it sticks). Other than that, doji  and couple of oscillators - this market is a pile of crap. Crash is still just around the corner, unless...
