In today's update ShepWave takes a step back working down from the Monthly time frame to the 60 minute time frame for the S&P 500 Index. Remember no matter what one trades close examination of the S&P 500 on the different time frames is a must. The targets we are dealing with at the current time as our ideal exit points for current mid term/ swing positions should begin to be hit just after the first of the year. Short Term traders may have some good reversal opportunities in the near term.

Remember there will always be 'buying' opportunities; but the trick is knowing when to SELL. The days of 'Buy and Hold' may be gone for some time.
2008 was the 'year of confusion'. 2009 could be the 'year of suffering' for the undisciplined, unobjective investor/trader. Remember, we can't 'fix' the current economic problem. While the 'Financial Pundits' are all trying to figure out how to fix the problem our objective is to find the trading range, up or down, and profit from it; taking our piece of the pie. We as traders/investors can't change the economic situation in this country but there is absolutely no reason not to profit from any market move. End of story.

Don't be a Madoff Victim. OR a victim of Madoff 'like' scams which are all over Wallstreet. Most of the so called Financial Pundits one sees constantly bickering and arguing on the TV trying to figure out the 'fix' to the current situation will be sittting directly behind the eight ball when the markets make their next move. Remember to stay objective and disciplined in your trading/investing decisions. The rich (and the smart) will get richer; while the poor (or those who are undisciplined) will get poorer.

Below are today's headlines. Merry Christmas I guess. But, remember we will make money regardless of what the economy does.
