    RE: Rockets I've been trading these for a short time now, using the 5,2,3 stochastic and see good success. I've posted a few of my trades and candidates. Although I don't have the 50 trades I like to draw conclusions regarding performance, so far they seem to perform about as well as the...

    Significant Reduction in Petroleum / Gasoline Prices, HOW?

    Was oil present in amounts that justified drilling? Seems strange that drilling is going at record levels just about anywhere there is a good chance at a find, and 'Bama gets singled out. Any politicians in Al. complaining? The state is getting hurt also by not collecting the big royalty...

    The Coming Oil Crisis

    I agree with most of what you say - do you have a cite for the comment, "The only reason we are not blowing full-speed ahead into a hydrogen economy is b/c the oil companies continue to buy up any relevant patents concerning hydrogen production and assimilated products, thus limiting hydrogen...

    Jay, The Hill Country has a lot of small towns and many have a historic district. Fredricksberg is a good place to start. I also like Bandera. Wine tours are interesting as some decent wine is made in the region. I prefer the canoeing and state parks to walking around towns and their...

    FWIW - I think it is in dry up and look for a break of 12.60 on strong volume for entry. DS ps-if you are a Fibonacci fan, it is at 62% retracement from its last up move.

    I trade from the Hill Country. FWIW-our guv and legislators are looking to significantly lower property taxes in a special session that starts today. Guv wants to cut max property tax rate from $1.5/100 to $0.9/100 by increasing business taxes, adding $1 to the cigarrette tax, and using...

    My all time best day in over 10 years trading. Gives credence to the saying, "never confuse genius with a bull market" even if it is only one day. The best trade, a Rocket, was long EZPW on the morning of 4/17 at 32.49 and exited this afternoon at 37.92 for a 17% gain. All my trades were...

    Not much working to the long side today as it is a real down day. The good news, for me, is that by following the guidelines for entry/exit, I'm down $90 for the day, not bad when the AD is running about 3 declining issues for every one advancing. Doug

    Significant Reduction in Petroleum / Gasoline Prices, HOW?

    I don't understand why people get so upset over oil yet remain silent on healthcare costs. I spend about $12k a year for what amounts to lousy health insurance and about $3K for gasoline. I write lots of emails to my Senators and reps about the scary direction of health insurance, but not...

    In Jack's "Bruno" post, he describes the "Rocket" pattern. I've made a couple of these now and would like to explain one I made yesterday, hoping for feedback/comments and corrections to what I did wrong. Chart1 shows EZPW having its daily Stochastic "entwined" around 80. Chart2 shows...

    After reading some of the posts that bordered on flaming and Spyder's responses, I made a mental note: Don't flame Spyder. FWIW-I continue to do well trading this method seeing returns similar to what I posted a few months ago. I look forward to improving my skills. Thanks to Spyder...

    Nice trade taking the UTL break. I waited til it broke the lower TL and missed about $0.60 per share profit. I'll probably watch it tomorrow as I have it in the lower third of the daily channel. DS
