No, look at it this way: The DOW lost less than 1.5% today!

The chart is a classic short covering ralley at the end of the week. Shorts have had an easy time for the past 8 trading days ... they are locking in profits and going flat before the weekend. They are afraid of good news over the weekend that could make the markets open 1000 points higher on Monday.

What we are looking for in a bottom is absolutely HUGE volume ... like 10x the average. We haven’t had that yet.

You will recognize the bottom 2 days after it happens, not 2 minutes.

LOL! Well, IMHO, Vegas is much more hospitable than this market has been of late. In Vegas, the odds are set as cameras watch to keep cheating at a minimum; and the occasional free adult beverage is pretty nice. On Wall Street, these days, I can't keep up with the constantly shifting indicators- aka odds; and I'm not sure anyone is watching the cheaters. Lastly, I've never received a comp from the greedy ba$tards running the investment houses! /sarc?
