Ok i'll ask again, if the DOW closes around 9700, will that lead to massive sell offs tomorrow and a true crash of the economy?

That's hard to say. I think you have to look at what happens tonight and tomorrow morning in Asia and Europe. If they're down again, then yes it will probably get worse here.

ill give my answer........i dont know.

i only stated that 9700 mark, because it hit around 9700 and bounced way up. that usually signals a collective bottom, even it it is a temporary one. there is no real mark to measure that i know of right now.

im no expert...........

I think tomorrow is going to be a bad day regardless of where it closes. I expect it will be a bad week.

Forget the "bottom" ... 9650 now and further tanking.

the sell offs will be overnight in the asian markets and the europe markets
thats how this started here in the first place. it will continue into europe and Asia. but we are having steady down movement. this isnt a roller coaster. this is jsut down! look at the chart ofr the Dow today. it is leveling off arounf 9700. Its wheither it jsut stays here or gues under. The next few minutes will be pretty important. But were closing down regardless but i dont think its crazy to possibly see a big buy rally about the last hour. People will either rally huge or it will just plummet.

OH SHOOT its jsut tanked!!!! 9650!!! iT WENT UNDER

HERE WE GO!!!

It's at 9740 and change now . . .

When a trader or investor wants to avoid the risk of the overnight trading, they’ll sell off their positions in the last hour or show as a way of mitigating what could happen overnight. Buying in the last hour generally shows bullishness with respect to what they believe could happen overnight.

Last Hour Sell = bad feelings about overnight trading
Last Hour Buy = good feelings about overnight trading

Which would you bet on at this point?
