Credit goes to the DOWN votes! Post your Vote! Notes/Guidelines: 1) For purpose of the spreadsheet record flat is currently based on +/-0.50% or less. Of course, everyone can define flat any way they choose. 2) Up, Flat, or Down must be clearly specified in a post in order to be listed in the spreadsheet, otherwise it'll be assumed that post was not intended to be a part of the official record. 3) Because of the poll expiration at Sunday midnight GMT time zone, (Sunday 4pm PST / 7pm EST) I manually close the poll around 9pm - midnight in PST, or before I go to bed. You may notice the poll says to expire on Monday, but it does not. It will expire on Sunday the date that is in this post.4 pm PST / 7pm EST is just a bit too early and I want to give as much possible time for everyone to get a chance to vote. 4) You may notice that some members have monthly and quarterly statistics in the spreadsheet. I add these based on at the start of the month or quarter taking into account past consistent voter-ship. 5) It's OK to post your vote if you missed the deadline after the poll has expired and if the market has not really moved that much or especially if your late vote is opposite or flat of the S&P futures ATM. It will be up to my discretion and obviously, the more active voters will be given more leeway. 6) Starting and ending points based on official close of the market Friday. 7) The primary goal of this game is to track our performance. You can consider it a contest or as a personal critiquing tool to better ones performance.
DOWN I'm really not a perma-bear (anymore), but I just can't get past all of the sell volume and resistance over head.

I'm going to be happy that I got 6. Don't think I'll ever break that record. With all the down move this past week, we now have 2 weeks down. I don't see how we get another 3rd week down, that almost never happens. But since I really don't want the market to go back up, I'm going to say down and hope my vote here will influence the markets.
This week's baby doll has me thinking UP.. Still rooting for @Baggi 7 in a row would be cool.. Congrats to all of last week's winners...
this week's vote was really a toss up for me between flat and down as i just don't have a good read on the markets for this upcoming week... i don't really feel an up week brewing just yet ... so i will simply settle with a FLAT and will hope that we end the week 0.50% or less in either direction
