Things to come

GOOG, Citicorp or JPM earnings could not save the market. Even with GOOG blowout the nasdaq is barely up. Not a real good sign, show sellers are outnumbering buyers

Amazing

For those who really think the market move randomly really need to study the market force- Today after all that action on the upside we managed to sell off and test the overnight lows of 1302, just amazing. Now I am very surprised that with GOOG earnings out we are only up a tad in the futures and this makes me think we are in a prime zone for some weakness. I really think we are panning out a top here but honestly not 100% confident so will play it as it comes.

GOOG and Market

I am wondering if GOOG earnings leaked why the market is so weak here?
Or maybe this is one big huge trap for the bears

1310.50

Nothing much happening here- new lows for the day but far away from the overnight lows- watch 1310.50 for some support

Positive today?

If we get positive today I would be looking at that 1329 level on the S&P. In the mean time Gold is en fuego obviously because of all the bad news in Europe and the US Debt crisis, yes it is a crisis.

Overnight action

Overnight action again took the futures down to 1302 on the Moody's announcement of US downgrade. 30 mins before open we are trading at 1317 level. Seems like 80% of the action in the markets seem to be overnight while the daytime action is muted.

Market Problem

The real market challenge for average folks is that most of the movement is happening after hours. Last night the futures hit a low of 1295 and opened this morning around 1313. Now that move overnight would have give an average person who was short huge returns but since there is no way to play over night action if you are an average guy, the big guys just rack up. This is one of the reasons why the big boys can still make money and the small guy can't.
So where does that leave us today. Well I am hoping we do get a turn around tuesday but almost 30 mins into regular trading we are just bouncing around opening prices.
