    Rule of 10 Journal

    By the way, I wonder if you will adjust your target somewhat higher to reflect the latest 10 point swing from the high? 1272.75? Or leave it in place? OldTrader

    Rule of 10 Journal

    There have been numerous swings since then, one of which went thru that point this AM and would have stopped out (I can't locate his first trade so maybe that's what the did). But why do it again, when clearly there are other points to look at in terms of R10? Either way, it worked out...I...

    This last one was a good trade...but didn't seem to have anything to do with the Rule of 10. OldTrader

    Rule of 10 Journal

    Exactly. Or put another way, there are no rules in the stock market. That makes this "rule" of 10 a misnomer to start with. Managing it won't work in the end either, because the market is in a constant state of change. In the end, I think the journal will prove that the rule, and any...

    Evidently you were so busy with your organic chemistry class, you missed the part of your English class where they discussed "homonyms". For your education, here is a link to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/organic Step back....breathe...

    nice to see WFMI get its butt kicked. You cant cheat forever

    I've been eating organic foods for something like 20 years. I wouldn't say it's "30-50%" more. That said, I'm not sure what price you pay on food that isn't sprayed or otherwise grown wrong. Are you? It's only a question of price...and thankfully, I can afford it. Maybe one of these days...

    Admittedly I don't know how you define whether a trend is up or down. But I think it's a stretch to say the daily or weekly trend, either one, is up. For instance, on the daily, we have yet to have a higher low, higher high sequence. The best you get on the daily for now is a higher low...

    Virtually no downside breadth today. In fact, I'm surprised the indexes are even down. OldTrader

    Planning to buy a home soon

    The only way to determine value in the real estate market is to look at the comps. Comps are properties in the immediate area that have SOLD in the last 6 months. You don't get your comps from Zillow. Drive around the area, get a couple of phone numbers of realtors from the real estate...

    You mentioned "triple bearish divergence" Friday. You also used the word "signal" when referring to this "triple bearish divergence". Was this not a trade? OldTrader
