Re: XAO Analysis

I closed my short and opened a small long while it was 5.1% down. It's now 5.3% down.

Reminder to self: NEVER EVER go long before 11:30am on a significant down day when you expect margin calls.

Gonna see if it recovers, then change my position to short at 2:30 before the next round of margin call selloffs.

"Paulson and other leaders need to step up and tell bank they have one hour to start lending if they don't the fed's will begin borrowing to people at the rate they charge the banks. its all about competition."

Would this work?

Next little hurtle for this 11:30 bounce will be at 12:45 - 1:00 when Hong Kong opens.

We are 100 points off the low. Will it survive the 5 to 10 % the HSI is going to open down?

Re: XAO Analysis

Those who are short have to take some profit at some time, Have a looka the move up, it is not a rocket, it is gradual, so generally speaking the bigger hands are offloading their shorts to the weaker hands who think they are buying a bargain. If the strong hands think their is more downside then they will come back in at some point and shove the weak hands down.

Ultimatley we will see after lunch who the strong hands are today.

There are no shorts!

That's one of the problems.

That don't make sense

The shorts BUY to close. So they are taking stock/futs off the sellers?

Can you explain your statement a bit more.

They have just suspended fair accounting rules, in other words, the SEC has legalised lying about your financial state, and then they expect people to lend to each other??????

If you are insolvent (as most banks are) no one will lend to you. If you are able to lie about your insolvency and everyone knows you are lying it doesn't change anything!!

Half-wit financial commentators who talk about it being a crisis of confidence have it a#$e backwards. The root cause is an insolvent financial system because of so many trillions of now worthless OTC derivatives.

The Fed has already said it will start to lend to certain businesses. The end result will be the same, death of the system, and a massive wave of inflation.

someone at the ASX needs to hit the reboot button the the old commodore 64.

the carnage is just horrific...

i have no trades open... but i'm just terrified!!!

the way XAO is going... it;s looking like 3500 is more and more of a reality... i never ever truly believe that it could be a possibility, but i'm finally waking up to it..

Whisker's "pot hole" is starting to look like an abyss...

Re: XAO Analysis

I was specifically referring to the futures market.

When you go short say on a futures contract, to get out(flat) someone has to buy it from you, so in other words. Most futures traders work on parameters and don't rely on trends to the same degree as stock traders, so in other words they are more likely to have a profit objective and get out at a specified profit objective.

someone has to take the other side.

Mate your terms are all mixed up. To close a short you "Buy to Close" the person on the other side can only be "Selling to open" or "Selling to Close".


There aint no buyers on the other side of a closed short transaction.

Quite a crack opening up now... but there's still some positive divergence there... not calling an it abyss, yet.

I still think this latest plunge can turn around pretty quickly and mainstream society just step over it.

Remember what Churchill said:

"Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing...after they have exhausted all other possibilities."

Unfortunately this is so true with so many ex-wallstreeters in the administration.

I think part of the problem now is their fuelling further instability in the market by procrastinating instead of getting on with taking some control of the key banking institutions instead of just postulating about it.

The real economy can survive, with government taking back some or all control of some businesses, like the UK, but over there it seems that they are choking on the inevetable death of their version of 'free enterprise' and 'capitalism'.

Re: XAO Analysis

I have made a specific call on the XAO bottoming out between 3400 - 3800

Yes and those targets are still over the otherside of the back of bourke somewhere and simillarly 'lost' in the outback.
(

Still looking lost in the outback are they Whiskers? I'd say you're bottom call at 4881 looks a little more lost.
