Agreed, high level stuff thanks!!

For those that think there is a 'recovery' for you and I:

Great dialog, guys.

Just some additional comedy about the most fake market ever to exist (I don't just mean the U.S. stock market, I mean all markets worldwide at this time):

One day to make it all back and hit a new high for the move? At least Cramer nailed it. I see he is as 'on' as ever.

My vote for best title to an article ever:

Summing Up Fed Policy In 2 Words: Vroom... Crash

Boy, look at this oinker on say a 120-min chart. Look at the 'pullback' so far. That's not comical, it's just sickening. Up, down, I don't care. All I care abut is having a balanced market. I know, we have to trade the market at hand. But that doesn't mean I have to like it.

ES sees your 75 support, Jim.

I am hoping not for long . This high here, it has some serious stuff there. I'm not getting my hopes up, but the lines are monster key ones. I hope I at least see the next degree lower areas I posted.

In other words: Give it to me, baby. Or... Die, pig, die!

Just want a little something to work with.

Not many know that lately I've been assisting my better half with 'landscaping' our front and side yard and doing the garden. She relocated a nearly eight year gardening project (flowers, shrubs, tress, and vegi's) when we moved. What we didn't know was the place we bought has the worst clay soil I have ever seen in my entire life. When we get closer to completion I'll post a picture or two in here. We won't finish entirely before the brutal non-stop rain gets here in the fall, but we'll be pretty far along, enough for some pics. In the meantime, here's what we're working with. No, those aren't rocks, that's the soil.


And by the way, that's not concrete below the wheelbarrow, that's the ground we are working with.
