Or ski :)

In that case, I'd expect it via AMT to revisit the bottom of the channel.

If he's simtrading, isn't in a chat room, isn't reading message boards, doesn't have a news feed, and isn't watching the clock, how would he know it's delayed? (It's early so my brain may not be up to speed yet)

Why?

AMZN is doing reasonably well. The rest, not so much. Which of course will help determine what the NQ does. But it can also invite an unwelcome bias.

You forget how many people were short all the way up. And kept re-shorting and re-covering. Which helps to account for the parabolic rise. :)

Depends in large part on how thoroughly one has tested his system, or strategy. I don't know who you used to be, but I read your posts, and it seems pretty clear that you've paid some dues. And if one stays around long enough and isn't a complete dunce (and doesn't go broke), he has to pick up...

There's also "Waddaya mean today's a holiday?"

Do you use any of the other most-heavily-weighted stocks in the NDX to enhance your views of the action?

I know it's early, but note the test of 22 from beneath.

Even though it's only Thursday, the news is in the daily chart, not the weekly, since the downward-sloping trend channel in the daily is clearly trashed. Price behavior has conformed to the lower limit of a potential range that I drew in last week and printed what is so far a parallel upper...

You've got to hand it to marketsurfer for making yet another thread about him. Again. It's a gift. :D

Trade without a thoroughly-tested, consistently-profitable trading plan.

Somebody "liked" something that I wrote way back in the first journal that I'd forgotten about but which is actually pretty good: Think of going to some game with which you are unfamiliar: football, rugby, soccer, cricket, whatever. While you're watching the game, your chief thought is not when...

Patience, yes. Once price took off this morning, there was really nothing to do until it got to that first daily swing high at 86, and then there was nothing until 4322 except for 4300. One can even set a stop and go do something else.

And the old high is only 36pts away. No edge, of course, if one doesn't know what to do with that.;)

I suppose I should also say that when that situation repeats and you get all cold all of a sudden and even light-headed, then you're not ready to take any trade at that point. So don't. Just stand aside and observe and take your notes. With each occurrence, the fear will lessen, and eventually...

You have a short memory. We were banned together. :D But it's been about a dozen years now.

Nearly all of you have different risk tolerances and look for different things than I do, with the possible exception of 40D. You may all see the same ranges and the same breakouts and the same double tops and bottoms and HLs and LHs, but then what? I demonstrated how to surf back at TL, but...

More interesting than TV. But it's largely a matter of paying it forward. To die without passing any of this on would be such a waste, particularly since there is always something to be explained, and so few people who are interested in this material, much less understand it.
