I'll offer a counter argument to generally accepted notion that now that some of the averages have run into resistance levels...a significant pullback is due; The Fed is out of the way, the QTR 2 earnings are out of the way, the hoped for soft-landing for the recession that isn't, and may not be...is rather premature,... the expected slowdown in earnings due to Fed tightenings, is a guess at best. Take a peek at interest rates...they're coming down. And note the renewed strength in the NYSE. It's my sense that we've got a good six weeks of good trading before QTR 3 earnings begin rolling in...and they may surprise, pleasantly. Best to ignore the "experts", they are not traders. Best to ignore the noise. Best to watch the charts...here a long, there a short. I remain convinced that in addition to the hit & run strategy...there will be increasing opportunities for 2-5 day Swing Trades. And it is time again methinks to increasingly play BOTH sides of the street, long & short, successfully.

SusanG: I'm thinking it might be a good idea to peruse the unfilled gaps on Qcharts between 10:00-10:10. If they haven't filled it's likely they get stronger still before pulling back. (Lee)
