That tells me we're more bearish next week. So, I think we have to be very vigilant about reading the technical indicators, being smart about the economic calendar, and very sensitive to the news. I thought 2011 was rotten tomatoes but I think this bear market will teach me some new lessons....and I hope they aren't all painful.

    Best luck to you in your investing!

    That 1937 graphic is also amazing. I hadn't seen it before and in my mind is much closer to our current situation than the 2011 simply because of the cycles in place. I've been expecting the bear to show up....had hoped for late January but I think he may decide to wake up earlier. Come On SANTA!!!!Give us our presents before the Grinch steals Xmas!!!

    Interesting article on the Brexit vote bookies

    Something Strange Emerges When Looking Behind The "Brexit" Bookie Odds | Zero Hedge

    Makes me wonder if the big money is setting up the market. It will be interesting to see the put options on Thursday.

    Monday morning and Ameriprise is down for maintenance again, odd how they seem to shut it down during high volatility times, guess they don't want traders competing with their "financial scammers". Can't wait until my wife retires so I can pull her money out of this company and put it in a real brokerage firm. These guys have some of the highest fees and slowest execution times, with their online complaints I'm surprised the SEC hasn't investigated this company.

    Tried to sell 1000 shares of SPXU this morning in my spouses Ameriprise account and was told it would be 2-3 days before I could sell them since they had a 4-1 split and it will be a while before Ameriprise updates. After 2 phone calls, 25 minutes each, they had me talk to a "coach" who tried to blame Proshares until I mentioned I was trading SPXU all morning in my other accounts. This is a new low even for Ameriprise, if it wasn't in an employer sponsored account I would pull the plug. Caveat emptor, this company is bad news. Thanks for letting me vent as I watch profits go out the window.
