    Hey tonygee, no clue at the moment, we are currently imho at an important level, a break below 080 on S&P spells trouble. I do have the feeling as I posted above the correction is over, but that's just a personal opinion, no data or analysis to support that. My analysis says we can go either way. May have a better idea based on where we finish the day. Level has held well so far.

  • Looks like a gradual fall as opposed to panic
    Think I will wait until panic sets in,say a 100 point fall,as this tends to stimulate mass buying.
    Steve,think you have overdosed on Xmas sherry;)youll either join the Rich List or end up potless:eek:

    Sorry, Federal Open Market Committee, often referred to as the FED for short, aka US Central Bank, responsible for monetary and fiscal policy. The equivalent of the Bank of England and the EU Central bank, but with a wider remit.

    I said it'd happen like this, Tony turns up and the market resembles the battlefield after the charge of the light brigade.
    I also hear
    MACD divergences all over the 30 min charts, this bounce could last a few days
