Egypt ? What's Egypt ? Oh, you mean that ancient history from last week ? HFT algorithms don't look at ancient historical news events. They just keep the trend moving. Boy, oh boy, can you imagine the acceleration of the market fall, when the HFT's computers decide that we are in a...

Don't fight the irrational exuberance of our friendly HFT's, who have taken over daily market volume (over 70 % now). Of course, you don't want to be left holding the bag, when the correction comes. And believe me when I say it, you will know when it comes :(

I have recently looked at this. The intent IS to alert when BOTH the current bar price is above midpoint of today's range AND also above the middle of the previous bar. Your assumption is correct. This is not one paintbar, however; these are 2 separate paintbars, which should be run...

The correction is coming. The higher we go, the harder & faster we will fall. History always repeats itself.

Yup, I agree with you wholeheartedly here. The tech bubble pop and the concurrent loss of many high-paying tech and business jobs to outsourcing and general reduction in hiring was entirely masked by the concurrent Bush/FED-induced housing bubble. The "housing boom" created tons of new types...

Anyone who doesn't think that states and municipalities are on the brink of collapse, ought to have their heads examined. Christie told it like it is, and the situation is prevalent for many states including CA, IL, NJ, NY, etc. How will this all play out in the short-run, remains to be...

Certainly not totally out of the realm of possibilities. China single-handedly could bring the U.S. dollar to its knees. I guess this guy is selling gold and silver commodities ? The video was too long to listen to the end.............

Quite frankly, what I cannot understand, is how the government continues to declare that inflation is near zero. I live in the high-cost state of NY, and to me, inflation is absolutely rampant. I know government doesn't use certain data in its inflation calculations, but here is the...

He may be a buffoon, but he's a rich buffoon, who's made a lot of money "entertaining" people.

Yes they do. However, if you have any assets at all, they can go after them legally. If you don't have health insurance, and incur large hospitalization costs (e.g.), then they can go after all of your assets, including your house. So, either you have the insurance (if you have assets), or...

Yes, it is a total joke. Every year I raise my deductible as high as possible, just to keep my premiums to the lowest levels possible. NY and CA are the worst states in the nation, by far. And current law does not permit you to shop for insurance across state lines.....the recent health care...

It sounds like catastrophic insurance is what you are after. Depending on where you reside, you can get different types that may be beneficial to you. Here in NY, I will recommend 2 types for you: 1) With Emblem/GHI you can get a high-deductible HSA plan. This will allow you to choose the...

TD better not kill QT, or I will pull my sizable 401K account immediately. QT is one of the best and most reliable packages around, and without question, Jerry Medved (& team), are probably the best support team in the universe. What the hell are they thinking ? I log into TOS, and it is the...

He went decidely Bullish several days ago, because 5 of his 6 checklist items have been "rectified" (I don't remember all of them, but some were European Debt Crisis, Passing of Financial Reform Bill, BP Oil mess, China's economy, and I forget the other one). The 1 item that hasn't been turned...

Other than that, things are doing OK :)

This point says it all.

Sure, they could go to zero.....a lot of truths about the severity of the leak is still being masked. I think it's a great SHORT play, even at these levels. The guys on CNBC's Fast Money alluded to the fact that they were right about at a buying point yesterday (at 34 and change), so if that...

Yup. You said it more succinctly that I did, and I agree with you 110 %.

This is one of the next bubbles that is going to burst big-time, and cause many colleges to go out of business, and many students to default on their loans. Living in a fairly affluent community and having been responsible for much hiring during a 20-year IT management career (past life), I...

Agree, totally. Locally, the real estate market has popped the Champagne corks, with the "high" level of real estate activity in April. Hello..........the artificial stimulus catalyst ended on April 30th, and guess what....real estate is once again at a standstill, despite the record-low...
