    Is your QChart data unusually slow today?

    Perfectly said AAA. Customer service is clearly not a priority, but the charting is outstanding. I tried esignal and TS and came back for the charts. Good luck AAA! Thanks for the laugh.

    Is your QChart data unusually slow today?

    Granted their data is always poor, but lately, and especially today, it is coming across in spurts with delays every 15 secs or so. Of course to contact them is like talking to a cement wall. Anyone else having problems today? Edit: Once in awhile a phone call helps. Although the website...

    Both of your ideas are very easy to write in Excel using a data feed like Qlink or others.

    Any good movies about Wall Street/Ibanking?

    The amazing thing is that you remembered this from almost a year ago!

    Portfolio tracking website

    I don't know the extent of detail that you want, but CBSMarketwatch does, and Clearstation used to but I haven't looked there in a long time.

    GM

    Exellent guys! Jim, I don't have the guts to short stocks with lower volume like MMS. I hope this nice move down in GM is serving you well. I know you have to be happy today Maike. That would have had me puckered all day long. As it worked out, I had some shorts on JNJ and CAT that both...

    GM

    Go Tigers! Your relatively new football coach has things going well down there. Sorry for the mistake Maike, and thanks for setting me straight. Way to go with your GM trading. I love that stock. It doesn't sit still for long, and trends both intraday and daily. Thankfully I was flat Friday...

    What constitutes a down day?

    Sounds like a simple question I know, but here is the basis for the question. Like most packages, my software will color code volume. I have red for down days and black for up days. I notice, however, that the color coding is based on the relationship of the close to the open vs the...

    GM

    DE broke thru that support level and closed below the 40 day sma. The pension problem is real although might be safe for a bit with that accounting group backing off. Howell given the time frame you have been short (~3 mos), I am hoping that means you are now at least b/e on the deal. All...

    Outside down day for CAT?

    Hi isu, Wow did that one ever work out! I shorted 2K at 52.27 yesterday when it was just under the intraday major averages. There is no way I expected to get all that out of it. I was hoping for 51.50 area... not 50.50! That extra buck was a true bonus. I'm playing in a golf scramble today...

    Outside down day for CAT?

    This is an interesting development. Support right now coming from the popular averages.

    GM

    Agreed on GM and DE. I shorted 2K GM yesterday near the close. Tues' and Weds' candles look like the "Rising Three Methods" so far, a bullish pattern, so be careful. But the resistance met at the popular averages yesterday is encouraging for a short, along with the 15 minute chart. I posted...

    Hi Lo Mo

    Besides the last three days for Mo looking like the Panic Button on a cartoon - I'm willing to risk a hi-lo break tomorrow. I don't care which way it breaks... and I will reverse. This is an NR4, and one day shy of an NR7. Check out the 60 minute chart. Recognizing that periods of low...

    Oct-Apr examples

    I'm glad you saw the humor alfonso... I read the thread this morning and realized that my reply was not obviously light-hearted. A guy used that on me one time elsewhere and I rolled laughing, but in his case he was right. :eek: Anyway, looking at the daily or weekly chart for GM and EK, the...

    Oct-Apr examples

    Yes and over the last 15 years what examples do you have alfie? Clearly neither I nor the proponents of this cyclical behavior were limiting it to this most recent period. You know, actually try to think about the question before you just vomit something from your brain to the keyboard! There...

    Oct-Apr examples

    A lot is printed this time of year about the Oct-April period being the best to be long stocks. I don't pay much attention to this type of stuff usually, but GM sure is a very good example. Take a look at the daily chart - apologies for the blasphemy to the daytraders :). EK is another...

    GM

    Covered MCHP this morning at 20.10. Covered CAT this morning at 51.16. Just sold GM at 34.88. After awhile the GM chart started to confuse me... and the price is right up against all the popularly followed sma's on the daily chart. I could end up being a dolt here... it wouldn't be the first...

    GM

    Doji, I know you mean GM and I appreciate the suggestion. However I am also interested in the dividend. And, scaling in is not averaging down. Averaging down is a loser strategy. It is done to lower the breakeven point by lowering the basis. I don't trade to breakeven. You've been around... I...
