Fall now, or, bounce em baby, there's plenty of time to fall later.

There should be more outward concern based on these highly directional moves as viewed on the weekly charts.

200 period moving averages on chart only because others look at them. In the SPX case, others are probably increasingly concerned. Interestingly, the SPX upper trading range measures exactly (within reason) the move down to lows of 1998.

May not get there all one move, but assuming it continues to move down now or later, I think quickly traders will just pull the plug because its the easiest thing to do.

I have a novice options question (or two) that maybe someone could answer. I understand that a high put/call ratio has bullish implications as a contrarian signal. But if stock prices actually do drop sufficiently, won't the high ratio be negative if the puts are exercised? Would effects of exercise manifest on monday or friday?

tia,
dana

Already have my F puts...if/when techs rally, old economy stocks may see the money flow back out of them back into techs. I think they are going down anyway - way overvalued on historical basis....Jerry
