    Hate to be the grim reaper but are looking at a possible depression

    BlueStreek, thought you might be interested. I'm a day & swing trader but do look at this kind of stuff. RYUAX is a mutual fund that moves inverse to the S&P 500. It's been around a long time as opposed to SDS. (If anyone wants to put their money on recession, your IRA can even buy it.)...

    Choppy Market today... Anyone else

    Good advice. One tiny trade today. Short BIDU at about 2:45 on support line break. Took 3 1/2. It gave more but the day's chop made me too touchy.

    New PC. What to do now?

    Did you buy a name computer (Dell, etc.), or maybe from this forums sponsor, or maybe have one built at a local shop? I'm curious as I'm shopping too.

    Chinese ADRs

    It is beginning to appear that the 200 day SMA at 240, +/- a little, is going to catch BIDU. If that's the case, would expect the short term to reach the 300 mark. We shall see how it plays out. http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=BIDU&p=D&yr=1&mn=0&dy=0&id=p69915871876&a=128256287

    Anyone else share this mental problem?

    Noticing that your links are Stockcharts, perhaps this might be helpful. When I (as a subscriber) first open Stockcharts in a browser, this is what comes up. It is just the Stockcharts canned default. http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=$INDU&p=D&yr=0&mn=3&dy=0&id=p69919816298 Have you ever...

    need a new broker

    Kevin, of the 11 candidates on my list, I looked a little extra at the Cobra and JPR websites. Interesting that you should mention RML because I went back to their website 3 times. In a private message with another member, he mentioned that one of his accounts is with RML/Quotetracker. This...

    need a new broker

    GTC, your mention of AmeritradeIzone is the first I have ever heard of this. I find that a very interesting negative for Ameritrade. Tuesday, I spent a little time on the phone with the Apex broker. I openned the conversation with "I'd like to talk with someone who has authority concerning...

    need a new broker

    Jack, several years ago, I took a short position in a stock. I knew that short would be the right direction but it went against me a little to hard so I went long to wait out the upside rather than just bail out and take the loss. So when I went to sell the long I couldn't do it! Surprise...

    AAPL and MACWORLD

    Thanks for the straight up easy answers, especially since I'm not too computer savy. I am not aquainted with anyone who has a Mac, but I am under the impression that they are fast and powerful. I'm going to get one. Oh, multiple monitors? Could an HD TV be used for a monitor? :)

    AAPL and MACWORLD

    I need to get a new desktop computer and am thinking about a Mac. Since many software programs run in Windows, I'm wondering if there is any incoming/outgoing lag as the Mac os has to run everything into the Windows os and visa versa.

    Chinese ADRs

    got beat up on BIDU this morning. just took a 365 exit. haven't played it since. at 10am pst got a short signal at 365 but didn't take it. what are the little square boxes with the small diamonds over them at the bottom of your chart? looks like the S/R might set in at 360-370
