Obviously the obvious is not so obvious because it has taken this thread thousands of posts to say absolutely nothing meaningful, including this post.

Anything can happen in trading if you leave the option open. Including huge winners and huge losses. Eliminate the possibility of one and keep the other.

Read this article: http://www.fool.com/fool/free-report/1321/intermediate/lesson7-writing-puts-146311.aspx Should give some basic ideas, but you on the right track.

AAPL will hit 560s within a short amount of time, relatively speaking, , buy the dips.

Parallel, projected also come to mind. The trick is line supported by a trend, as you stated, all time highs wouldnt qualify. However, even if uncharted territory you can use lines to measure strength instead of using it as a fade tool which is how they should be used.

Lines with the trend do matter, counter-trend lines are much less significant. A strong uptrend has no real resistance, just illusion of resistance, vice-versa for downtrends. Learn to use the lines that matter, and I dont mean trendlines, do your homework before claiming lines dont matter.

Nice unlimited risk suggestion...

Yes, obviously, but that's why you do your homework before you go to work and practice, years and years of practice.

Runs flawless on Windows 8.

Long term geometrics, those shorting could be a tad earlier into predicting the retrace. Considering the Resistance is "Dead" meaning it's not supported by any trend as these are all time new highs, chances of stop runs and resistance bends are probable so it's wise to let faster timeframes...

The research for the edge is done in hindsight but after you train the eye, don't lie to yourself, if you did not see it live, you did not see it, regardless of how easy looking back looks like.

When a line or geometric is supported by a strong established trend, I call it live, and I may look for entries there, when they have no trend back-up, I consider them dead, and will contemplate looking for an exit, assuming I had a position, most of the time I did or else I failed to see the...

Here's some invaluable advice you don't get to hear often. Channels, lines, diagonals or horizontals, unless they have the back up of a well respected trend, moving average included, over the course of thousands of samples, they mean dick. You want the confluence of a trend to support your...

Watch and learn, we can revisit in the future.
