I thought I might try something different here, and see how it goes. It's quite difficult for me to post a lot to the various topics, especially with charts, since the method I use for posting charts is very cumbersome. Some charts can take me a half hour or more to put together. Since the charts I use for posting are not my 'working' charts, this work is duplicative.

I have various ideas and thoughts here and there about different things, and if I have a 'central clearing area' where I can just put out a sentence or two, pointing to something without doing the work, the members can do what assessment and analysis they want with the ideas, and post charts if they want, preferably to the respective areas they have for that topic. This way it would leave this topic more 'clean'. If you have a question or comment on what I was pointing out you could post that in here.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on this, or anything you think would be helpful/useful. Keep in mind I am not going to just tell you all my best setups in advance, especially if I plan to trade them, as that is not 'what I do' in here, or anywhere. I want to point out things that may need some work, and might go unnoticed otherwise, or are just of interest.

yep...there is something about all this that always keeps me thinking that this has been orchestrated...
By who I (we) don't know, but I would consider them the "dark forces" in this world.
Why did they "wait" until 1 month before the elections for all hell to break loose? Lehman might as well have failed when Bear Stearns was bailed out. Wouldn't have been any different...unless of course there was an orchestrated and carefully timed plan (?)

I know it's maybe way too melodramatic, but I've been singing this song since this whole thing started. I guess I must just think it's apropos, or something. From the Moody Blues' 'The Story In Your Eyes':

"Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
Were part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine weve been waiting for
Will turn to rain."

Maybe it helps to look for info about "Rothschild family". Their history, power and their relationship with Goldman Sachs.

Here some links:

To be honest with you, I didn't read most of them. This is basically because, It's hard to tell truth from lie. Or Facts from opinion. And even if you knew the truth, then what?

I don't know who said this, but, I like this say:
"Make sure to hide small secrets. The big ones, the public will bury them for you" or something like that.

SPX is now at an area for a significant bounce,IMO.
The geometry and technical factors are in place.I believe this thing ain't over with yet.But an intermediate term bounce up is possible here, at least it is at/near the spot for that. The price action has been printing TRS' after TRS on my intraday chart,that's a clue there as to the strenght of the bear.No capitulation yet but a strong bounce and then roll later is very possible scenario.The wave patterns and counts are also compelling to follow. The MONTHLY chart is KEY for context.
M, as far as this thing being 'orchestrated',IMO there is more to it: it's pure manipulation and has always been so.I have NO doubt in my mind whatsoever.Be it true or not I wouldn't care much because we can't do anything about it.The only thing that matters is to profit from it as traders/investors. Here's what I Think: " big money players, manipulators or not, do choose their spot when they want to buy or sell and move the market...our duty as trader is to locate these areas of interest and take our chance in a calculated manner."
By the way the PPT ran out of funds trying to run us to new all time highs...then they asked,through surrogate mr Paulson for a $700billions in taxpayers money to replenish their accounts.You and me won't ever see a penny of it.Guess who stays in business? meanwhile the little guy is still stuck deep below the pecking order..

"Hear, hear!" to all the above, T.

Asian markets in crash mode .Nikkei down about 10%...SP futures plunging with it ...an emergency rate cut maybe? panic time?
Capitulation volume coming in ?... wow.
T

And now Europe following the global drop...London markets in deep red trouble...with YM futures -340 already , ES -37.0 wich are about -3.5% from last close. My oh my...this is getting ridiculous...I wonder where NY ,Chicago will open at with all this turmoil...Wall Street usually leads so it's gonna be a new day with a new ball game...the trading overnight is awesome though...busy busy night.
T

ES moves 82 points on the predicted 'emergency' rate cut, then realizes it is meaningless, since the Fed already 'floated' the target, and sells it all off. I've never seen anything even remotely like this. Is today the day we 'crash'?

I had the same thought today: "Black Wednesday"

Well, although I am wary this thing could panic sell down to a lower area, I think the highest probability scenario is that the bounce has started. Sounds a bit odd when it closed near the low, but I think it needs a bounce in here bad, and it did 'test' a super key area here based on the tools as I use them. I will be waiting for entry signals and lower timeframe setups, but watching the futures here I suspect the triggers will be coming soon, well before the open. Just tossing out my thoughts. There is a good case for more downside, but the key area and the VIX all-time high, plus the six down days in a row cry out for a bounce, and I'm ready, either way.

I think the second chart is particularly telling. I agree with the conclusion, this market is nothing more than Euro-yen carry trade on, Euro-yen carry trade off. No balance, no participation, no depth, as I discussed in my last monthly commentary, just leverage/deleverage, risk on/risk off, and that's it. Skynet is totally sentient. How long, like in the movie, until the machines decide to vaporize the useless humans?
