    Swing Trade Play 11/11/05

    I will keep playing unless there is just some new very positive news release or something that will bring in "heavy volume" buying --- then i may flatten at breakeven (1271 area) for the remaining position and look for a new higher price level entry. there is plenty of news releases this week...

    another point i have forgot to mention in all this --- about the EU markets. the EU {and their markets} has big problems ahead imo if their dealings with people of middle eastern descent degrades {the middle eastern people living within their countries} or becomes a pronounced internal...

    Good chance Market near a short term high.

    well in the new world of measuring who's money is where and when, the government through regulations over brokerages and institutions have this down to a science --- they have their eyes on the movements of money all the time. foreign money has become almost like you and me but on a much...

    Swing Trade Play 11/11/05

    yes sir you are right --- as long as i can keep "order replacing" then all the previous positions are history --- they have been replaced at no cost to you and the commissions for the attempt have been paid --- so it is like a wash until you get the actual pullback. ok yesterday i put...
