    Classic Geometric Patterns and Narrow Range Setups

    "They" say we're all waiting for Friday's unemployment number. Perhaps as a result the major stock indices printed Narrow Range 7 Inside Days. Much has been written about this potentially explosive pattern.... Crabel, Connors, Farley, Hansen, Raschke.... Contraction.... expansion...

    Rate hike hype

    That's pretty funny, Fire'. :) Whether or not rates are raised this year or next.... in my very unlearned and merely empirical opinion, when the Fed starts raising rates it will be slowly and cautiously. As such, if 5% money were cheap, and 4% were, and 3%.... etc., then as far as the subject...

    Rate hike hype

    Dr. Irwin Kellner, CBSMarketWatch economist and Weller professor at Hofstra, concludes that rate hikes are eminent. Brilliant! But what gets me is his parting salutation... As I recall, money has been considered cheap from about 5% all the way down to the present rate. Unless the Fed raises...

    Qcharts/Quote.com website is maddening

    It shouldn't be this way, but right now here is the way to get to the screen you need. Go to the quote.com website, and on the right in the box where it says QCharts Basic, click on Help. A small web page comes up and under "Getting Started" click on "Setting Up Real_Time Data". Click on...

    Just my opinion on "intellectual property"

    Prefacing this part of the quote, Solomon said, "History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before." The verse is found in the Book of Ecclesiastes 1:9. The entire book is about a man who, in our terms, "had everything", but found it all meaningless apart from God. Though, my point...

    we'll see 1102 tomorrow

    Talk about time zone differences.... I'm still on 3/25. Can someone tell me who won the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament? Where I live, I could make a lot of money with that information. :)

    Quoted below is a brief bit from Standard and Poors found on the BusinessWeek Online website. I highly recommend the site, but I like Brussel sprouts too, so..... I have attached a chart of MRK which includes my usual markings. This recent bit of volatility has plumped up the options some too...

    we'll see 1102 tomorrow

    LOLOL! It took me a while to figure out how many letters were between the f and g, ie., either one vowel, or a group of letters and consonants found in the word trucking! Watch out for bears waking up.... on the hike... not the market. Hey take your time on the other stuff.... you're on...

    TGregg I wait for an answer about my hacked post !

    One thing for sure.... TGregg has always been an outstanding member of this community, and continues to demonstrate his good judgement day in and day out as moderator. I would never suspect any moderator of hacking another member's post. And if TGregg says he didn't have anything to do with it...

    Understanding Greeks

    LOLOL! And I mean literally too! However, I do too and that's just the way I approach it. That's not to say I apply that to everything in life. I have been going to pro baseball games for 20 years, and every time I go, I expect to catch a foul ball. Finally, last year, I caught my first one...

    Understanding Greeks

    Contrarian view here.... and prefaced with the hope that your returns are for a longer period than just a few months..... but if you are making the returns you say you are making consistently... then I disgaree that you need to know all about the greeks. Your common-sense approach to the...
