    The Goog short- Heres why....

    IMO it was an exceptional short around $700. :) If the market moves higher it will take GOOG with it. No matter the particular GOOG fundamentals. Any shorting should be timed with the market as well.

    Reversion To the Mean (RTM) Intraday Strategies

    To be true to the MP teachings. To use POC the day must be balanced. Or use more then one day to achieve the balance. Balance is a bell curve like looking shape where the close was within the tick part . Now if the price moves "to much" from the balanced POC we can start thinking of going...

    Reversion To the Mean (RTM) Intraday Strategies

    I also have tough time using volume. I see some relevance to volume on the price axes. I mean price areas where there was cumulative high volume and price areas with cumulative low volume. But as far as PA goes volume is not consistent. R/S support lines can be broken on low volume and on high...

    Briefing.com said "Bonds got spanked on the latest Fed buy of the mid-curve". Where is that reported? There were no actions today. How did the Fed buy the mid-curve? Thanks!

    Why are some reports called "Actions" and some called 'Announcements"? For example "6-Month Bill Announcement" and "6-Month Bill Auction".

    Sweet Jebus, we can be homeowners, like, Right Now

    I used the same site to locate properties in my part of the woods and I found one at a price of 90% lower than what a similar home not in foreclosure costs. And they all say that this is the balance of the loan. I am assuming that the site just decided to use that as the price of the house when...

    Sweet Jebus, we can be homeowners, like, Right Now

    The price is not valid. This is the balance on the loan. It will go for much, much more.
