[quote author="BlackVault CM" date=1235622851]Fascinating to watch. It's like a battlefield, a war. Troops are marching forward pushig through enemy resistance lines. At times, they are failing, but they come back with more troops to push through the next resistance. Right now...Nasdaq $29.20 would be a big one to break through...



Thats how I view trading everyday...a battlefield...makes it more interesting than just staring at flikering lights. Gotta keep myself entertained...maybe i'm just going crazy.</blockquote>

I can't hold...I need to advance. My troops will starve to death (bought calls) if we just "hold".



I need some nukes damn it, throwing rocks at a 10 foot wall isnt' working.

Hold on... not hold. You must defend you position, just make sure you bring enough fight and resources before you know what you are taking on....

Too bad you can't have a 24 hour reset on polls and vote again. Would be interesting to see how votes change over time.



I would have to change the title to just market in general instead of Obama's speech.
 
I guess an argument can be made that since the gain was under a 100 points in this market (last 8 months or so), it's still a fairly flat day. Hey, I always like to win and I'll find a way, damn it!

You know I toyed with that idea. I mean if you add in volatility, you're right. +/- 100 is pretty flat.

I know. From now on Oscar, I will consult you before all my trading decisions. What do I do tomorrow btw?
