    Technical stock screener

    I am trying to find stocks that are trading close to specific technical points. I have never used a trading software before so I am not familiar on how to go about this. The closest thing I have found (free) is this website [dojispace.com] that provides a screen based on moving average...

    Shortselling information

    Excuse the newbiness :) I can get the fortnight data for shortselling no problem. Is it possible to have this information on a daily basis or weekly basis? Short squeeze says it publishes the nasdaq data 1 to 3 days before them for paid subscriptions but do not want to become a member.

    The Credit Crisis Financial Stocks Short Journal

    I do not trade currencies but I follow them for my overall trading. In the last 2 to 3 weeks a clearer trend has been emerging. One by one, currencies from commodities' countries have been trading stronger against the dollar and currency pairs started to break down/break up, also one by one...

    The Credit Crisis Financial Stocks Short Journal

    Daal, with all due respect... I think if you just focus on unemployment and consumption you may get blindsided. Yes, consumers are the biggest chunk of the economy but if you look under the hood you would see crashed stone and lumber shipments stabilizing, as well as lumber contracts retesting...

    The Credit Crisis Financial Stocks Short Journal

    Just adding an alternative view... Jeremy Grantham thinks this market cannot bottom at a lower low (for now) because some ingredients are just not there: much higher oil prices and much higher interest rates a-la-1974/1982. Although he does not discard a retest he also believes time is running...

    Vix is so low now

    Just a comment from a newbie. Vix was trading just like this at the onset of the last bull market on Ap. 2003. It broke support below 30 and never looked back. We may be at an inflexion point. Watch for two more initial claims below April's peak (next one on Thursday) and also the coming leading...

    Know Why I (and some others) Have Never Been More Bearish? - NYT Obama Interview

    I do not think massive resources are being used to shape anyone. If I may... are you american? My understanding is that the moral model for the american spirit is Adam Smith, which can bring light to some of your considerations. What you see is embedded, not forced upon. From wikipedia on...

    A+: Why This Rally Is Not Sustainable & The Huge Role Goldman Has Had In Spurring It

    Yet he said 875 would be formidable resistance due to supply and here we are at 929. I don't understand this rally but I see that the last for 4 weeks of data of initial claims remained below the peak from beginning of April and yesterday's data, well below. Two to 4 more weeks like this -with...

    Excellent Read from Martin Armstrong

    I am thinking he could have actually been right had a player at the table not been cheating.

    Reminiscences of a Stock Operator...

    I read the book many, many times. My personal feeling is that you can extract an endless barrage of lessons of all types that are still current, specially in reference to flexibility, introspection and the character of a trader. Regarding the different times, I think you may have a point. After...

    Crude Oil Explosion or Implosion

    Looking at the volume of shipping stocks today and the move of some miners (iron ore) I'd say explosion.

    Leading indicators is a matter of time periods, of course. For example, the new liquidity cycle that has started is also a leading indicator to corporate profits. But on a much longer term period and it may supersede home prices still going down. In my view, it's all a matter of perspective. Is...

    ABX Indices stuck @ lows

    Wouldn't this be the case as long as unemployment is rising? Subprime holders will avert risk of financial loss only if unemployment reverses, pressumably.
