Markets higher- Go Figure- Greece is not a concern? Puerto Rico not a concern? Fed not a concern? The markets think that the Greece Referendum this weekend will result in the ousting of the present people in power-Tsipiras- and - I guess the assumption is that the new party in power will sign...

Wow- HEWG of course stopped out $26.66. Bad day for the markets- good day for anyone holding short positions- I'm presently all cash in my IB account- with both PJP and XBI coming close to the level I have limit orders for. Cash position is $15,421.00- down from $16,225 . or a -5% drawdown...

Still holding HEWG- surprisingly, despite the Greece refusal - HEWG was up- at least on Friday- I have limit orders pending for both PJP & XBI- PJP $77.25 & XBI 15 @ $238.00. Both of these orders are placed within a prior consolidation range- It is entirely possible that price will...

PJP sold $80.30 on my tightened stop-loss - Oddly, there was a positive reaction in some healthcare stocks due to some resolution of Obamacare-and I would have expected PJP to have moved higher- PJP- like XBI- was well extended on momentum above the ema on the fast chart- and technically has...

XBI hit my IB stop and filled 21 @ $255.00 - I think locking in some $14 or so dollars of gain above my recently increased average cost- This relected a position size of 1/3 of my account value- Which is taking on a higher level of Risk than one should do- I also hold XBI in another...

Thanks for taking a look-and posting the link- I think it's worth drilling down -if one has the time- to find out where out performance is being generated- in the different market segments- The benefit of trading with ETF's is that the individual stock Risk is eliminated- The downside-...

I added to XBI & Hack- My average cost now in IB with XBI is now 21 @ $244.54. Today's close $259.00. Price is extended on momentum, and today's move had no follow through-but the markets were up only slightly. I made the decision to overweight XBI expecting it to continue to...

Was stopped out on TBT last week. I was filled in HEWG today at the open at $27.00- it moved up over 3.5% PJP my IB add is $79.53. nice momentum finally - xbi- added +3% Small caps- IWM moving higher- up 4% for the year- QQQ's pushing 110.00 with a doji at the high- AAPL is failing to...

I had sold the IB position of PJP- it had not been acting well relative to the XBI- With today's breakout of the sideways range- (I did not have an order waiting) I will seek to get a position with the lower side of the range as a stop-loss.

WOW! Markets up across the board over 1%! Fed must have reassured the market with their guidance! I actually thought that the market would have gotten more information to react on yesterday- and it barely moved- EWG did pop today- I think on Greece news- I did not put on a trade- there...

6.17.15 nice to have a green day- Markets closed up marginally- Dow, S&P, Nas up .20 on average. I had a nice turna round in TBT- up 1.7 after being on the verge of stopping out. Dollar went lower today- Interesting article in CNBC "http://www.cnbc.com/id/102767915"- EUO- was down, HEDJ...

Added to hack today as my limit filled $.03 above the lows- and it moved higher- Price is extended I need to acknowledge- This can be seen in the widening space between the ema's. employing a 30 min hi-lo Renko chart here -

TBT is a recent position I entered in the IB account- Went higher and quickly retraced. It pulled back to the prior swing low- and closed slightly higher- Doesn't look bullish- tightened the stop-loss. Has anyone told HACK this is not the time to be making new highs?

I added to XBI on today's pullback with a limit order $236.00 This raises my avg cost in the IB acct to $229.71. Chart attached- Today's pullback found my limit order very close to the price low- and i was filled. I've had that limit order waiting for over a week With that fill, it comes...

Gollllee! Remember Gomer Pyle? No added trades - A quick Summary update-and some notes to date I'm 6 months or so into this thread, and i have not been able to accomplish what i initially set out to do- i.e......... demonstrate a profitable (and replicable) trading process based on...

Markets a step higher- The TWC tech person came to the house to try to correct the issues with the digital decoders devices- Got things working for an hour- and then back off-line- Love the technology......When it works. It's such a core part of our lives to expect it will work on demand...

Well, it panned out as one might expect- stopped out on DUG $50.75. TBT moved up about 2%- and XBI revisited it's recent 240+ level. With the market sectors all higher- XLF finally made a step up higher- Both HEDJ and DXGE looked to make a turn higher- guess that's on Greece and Merkel's...

Quick trade Note- DXGE stopped out $29.09 at the open as it declined further- HEDJ (no longer a position) also declined similarly. DXJ broke it's 2 hr trend ema and is at my stop to protect my entry. XBI actually moved fractionally higher uup is declining - TBT looks poised to break out...

DXGE - hedged Germany ETF- $29.50 was the bottom base, and instead of holding a tight stop just under perceived prior support, I elected top give it some room. My stop is at $29.30- and price spent 2 days under the $29.50 "support'. Not understanding the complex issue of Europe-&...

Saturday -6.6.15 - 1 more day and it's back to work. Never worked as hard on a vacation! Will be worth the effort- Started block work- This will likely take several weeks - evenings and weekends- just to get things up to floor elevation- My normal routine of DVR cnbc will be...
