just curious if knowing the news and the "WHY" of a market move helps anyone trade short term? I can't figure it out myself

revising my buy zone down to 74.50 - 76.50

The news doesn't help me. The "WHY"(for me)does. However, the "WHY" might be different for each trader. And, finding the "WHY" is the part of trading few traders ever figure out.

Technical Analysis is the pursuit of finding patterns of human behavior, specifically buying and selling, thru the use of indicators, S&R levels, chart patterns, etc....but, the question is "Do the patterns cause the behavior or does the behavior form the patterns?"

why do u say this..? As an up and coming options player I want to suck all the information I can from the web...appreciate any help u can give

yeah ..I see that Rb...was really hoping they would have pushed it back for the 80.50 on that...lots of numbers in that 86 - 88 area....too late for me too ...a real neutral week
