TF... What a Beast!

[jpennybags 11]

I have no idea what was behind the selling today. If someone has some thoughts on that subject I'd like to hear about it. I wonder if it's not FED related...

 

You gotta love it though... fun day... total vacuum on the buy side. I'm worn out.

I don't know much about the TF although I have read that it can lead the other indicies as small caps are the first to take a beating in times of doubt and the first to get euphoric in times of certainty. I do know that the the scottish vote caused some sort of wierd euphoria on the ES during the GLOBEX session thursday night and early friday AM. I have never seen that much activity during those hours. It seemed a bit exhuberant! Just based on a hunch i figured it would have been a good short for the US hours as maybe exhaustion, and the realization that Scottish dependence doesn't really add worth to the market place, (just removes uncertainty), would set in. I think maybe a little bit of ALI BABA played a role too, but not to much intuition as to how, unless all the bulls wer busy dicking around with that....but I don't know what moves the market for sure. I can just make semi educated guesses and watch my technicals for clues. ANyway if you don't already visit this site, here is an article I found about the TF's technicals from INV.

I remember when TF used to be ER. It was a beast back then all the time. All I know about TF is that liquidity dried up when it first moved over.
